They ended up in Newport Beach and then so I have 200 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,879 like where find my friends on you know, so I could see where Sonny 201 00:14:22,879 --> 00:14:26,399 in Italian are, right, I didn't realize they were going to be in 202 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:28,320 the same neighborhood. By the way, I could have put an Italian the 203 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:31,399 car with Sonny. I didn't know the next day she was not going to 204 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:35,279 want to do that, but anyway, Yeah, so they the two of 205 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:39,200 them were hanging out together with their group friends at Newport Beach, which was 206 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,120 so cute. That is cute. I took like a screenshot and I sent 207 00:14:41,159 --> 00:14:43,919 it to them. I go, you guys know, you're like a mile 208 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:46,559 apart from each other and like, dr, yeah, we know we're hanging 209 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:50,480 out right now. That's like I didn't know that. You know, they're 210 00:14:50,519 --> 00:14:54,240 going to like Babbo Island and yeah, I was thinking about taking my kids 211 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:58,120 to Babboa Island. I think that they would. They're my kids love it 212 00:14:58,159 --> 00:15:01,440 down there. They have a great time. Yeah, I think that would 213 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:05,440 be really fun. I hadn't thought about that stupid foot. It's still broken 214 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:09,159 though, right now. Okay, so he put it off. So when 215 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:13,200 was the appointment? So today was the appointment today? Right before I got 216 00:15:13,279 --> 00:15:16,480 here, he took him to the DMV.

The quickest appointment was at the Van Eyes, so we didn't know 221 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,960 if it was how it was going to go. It's good, fine, 222 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:37,639 Yeah, we walked right in. They took us right away, which was 223 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:41,519 nice. We had an appointment, got in line in the car and the 224 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:48,000 instructor and then there's this one instructor that was the the you know guy right 225 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:52,279 that comes the person who was doing the rights the assessment. He comes out. 226 00:15:52,279 --> 00:15:54,200 He's just an old dude and son, he was like, I hope 227 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:58,799 I don't get him.

He stands outside of the car to the left signal 232 00:16:08,519 --> 00:16:11,480 the right thing. Oh blah blah blah. Then I get out, he 233 00:16:11,519 --> 00:16:15,600 gets in, and then they're gone, and I'm watching him on the map 234 00:16:15,879 --> 00:16:18,720 and I'm like, oh he stopped. Oh no, now he's going down 235 00:16:18,879 --> 00:16:21,240 what a helicopter mom. I am by that. Oh. I would have 236 00:16:21,279 --> 00:16:25,720 been that. That's why I sent John with Elbie.

It's crowded right 240 00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:38,879 now, it's a lot of traffic. Anyway, He's gone like I don't 241 00:16:38,919 --> 00:16:42,840 know, seven to ten minutes, comes back, pulls in. Guy, 242 00:16:42,919 --> 00:16:45,320 he gets out of the car. He's like I passed. And I was 243 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,600 like, oh my god, I'm so happy. I was so happy for 244 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:56,200 him. Yeah yeah, so yeah, so um so Sadie, Yes took 245 00:16:56,200 --> 00:17:00,639 her permit test her written to last week. If you remember, we were 246 00:17:00,639 --> 00:17:03,279 talking to Sonny and I was saying that Sadie was getting ready to go for 247 00:17:03,359 --> 00:17:08,240 her permit test. So, oh my gosh, like I made her study. 248 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:15,079 I was. I was pretty harsh. Yeah, I mean harsh. 249 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:18,079 But somebody told me a good tip. I was talking to somebody about teenagers 250 00:17:18,079 --> 00:17:22,799 and they're written tests and stuff. They said, have them test you. 251 00:17:23,839 --> 00:17:29,200 That's a good way for them to learn. Have the kid test you and 252 00:17:29,319 --> 00:17:33,880 ask you the questions, because then it opens up the conversation and then it 253 00:17:33,279 --> 00:17:37,079 really helps them learn. Isn't it an interesting? That is interesting? Yeah, 254 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:42,119 that's something to remember that for next time. Yeah, but I think 255 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:45,960 I told you this last time. I was telling you about how she was 256 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:49,559 not really studying. I mean she was doing it, but like a lot 257 00:17:49,599 --> 00:17:56,599 of like like like saying them out loud and then like and you know me, 258 00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:00,559 I love a quiz show. I'd be like, oh they First I'd 259 00:18:00,599 --> 00:18:03,720 be tricked into kind of telling her the answer, which then when I realized, 260 00:18:04,519 --> 00:18:07,920 well, I'm not going to be in there with you, and like 261 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,480 why am I taking the test? Like you're the one who's supposed to be 262 00:18:10,519 --> 00:18:15,079 answering this, Like how'd I get hurt? You know? So then when 263 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:18,119 she was really doing them herself, she was getting up nervous and upset and 264 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:22,799 whatever. Anyway, she got over that, and then the last couple of 265 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:27,759 days because I think we recorded last week on a Monday, and then she 266 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:33,839 went in on Wednesday, so like Tuesday, she was taking a bunch of 267 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:41,759 a bunch of the tests and starting to do better on them. And then 268 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:47,039 Wednesday morning we got up and then she was like testing herself, like on 269 00:18:47,079 --> 00:18:51,960 the way there, and she was very nervous. Yeah, but I told 270 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:55,559 her, I was like, listen, you're going to have the test is 271 00:18:55,599 --> 00:18:57,480 the last thing you do. I go first, We're gonna have to be 272 00:18:57,559 --> 00:19:03,079 waiting, yes, like there's gonna be a long wait for stuff. So 273 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:07,599 we walk in and there's this there's like a kiosk I want to say. 274 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:11,319 It says appointments. So first we walk in and there's a long line outside 275 00:19:11,319 --> 00:19:14,680 and Sadie's like, oh no, and I was like, no, that's 276 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,359 not us. We have an appointment. But then you walk in and it 277 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:23,759 says appointments and there's a to check in for your appointment. So so but 278 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:29,079 it goes really fast because they're like next snack snacks, and they what they 279 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:30,519 do is they go, okay, you have an appointment, and then you 280 00:19:30,519 --> 00:19:36,039 show them your confirmation number and then they give you a little paper that says 281 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:40,119 window twenty eight. Yeah okay, So we we walk. We get there 282 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:41,119 and she's like, okay, if an appointment, I prove it. She 283 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:45,119 goes, okay, window, let's say it was like f you know, 284 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,920 forty four. So we look up at the board. It's like an airport 285 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:56,480 arrival and departure time twenty three and it says now serving our number. Oh, 286 00:19:56,559 --> 00:20:02,039 and I was like, oh shit, what's hold on? So I 287 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:03,440 freaked out a little bit because I was like, oh, I think we 288 00:20:03,559 --> 00:20:07,240 missed it, like it was so fast. I go back to the window 289 00:20:07,319 --> 00:20:11,960 real quick, and of course somebody gives me an evil eye because you know 290 00:20:11,039 --> 00:20:14,720 there's and I was like, no, no, no, I go uh 291 00:20:14,759 --> 00:20:17,920 that you gave us a number but it's already being called. And she's like 292 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:22,400 yeah, yeah, go window nineteen or whatever. And I was like, 293 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,359 oh okay. So I'm like, come on, Sadie. So we get 294 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:30,680 this woman shockingly like super nice, because I always get nervous that they're gonna 295 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:34,680 not except one of your documents, which which happened to me a million dis 296 00:20:34,759 --> 00:20:41,359 right to write with whatever, passports whatever. So I'm like I brought with 297 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:45,279 me a bank statement and a medical thing that had her name on it, 298 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:48,559 you know. But you just don't know they're going to be like, no, 299 00:20:48,759 --> 00:20:52,160 this is too old or you know, this also needs to have her 300 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:56,400 birthday on it, you know. But I was like ready, I had 301 00:20:56,400 --> 00:21:00,680 her bring her school, I d plus I had a birth all this stuff. 302 00:21:00,039 --> 00:21:03,920 The woman was super nice, just like looks through the stuff and she's 303 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:07,799 like okay, um, there you go, and then sends us to to 304 00:21:07,839 --> 00:21:11,400 get her picture taken and yeah, I you know, they did the eye 305 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:15,640 test right there anyway, So she gets all that done, We're like ready 306 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:19,279 to go, and then she starts getting nervous, like because she has to 307 00:21:19,279 --> 00:21:22,920 go in and take the permit test. And she's just not a test taker, 308 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:26,440 Lynette. She's just time same. Yeah she does. She has a 309 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:32,160 test anxiety. So and this feels so adult, right, like you know, 310 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:34,759 it's all adults there. Yeah, there were no kids waiting in line 311 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,880 at this particular time, Like I feel like when Elbi went, because I 312 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:42,599 went with LB two, there were like a bunch of kids. Elbi age 313 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,400 right, it was like the thing that they were It was a bunch of 314 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:49,680 like other teenagers. Yeah, but no, this was like all adults. 315 00:21:51,519 --> 00:21:57,279 So she has to go behind the glass or the partitions. And does she 316 00:21:57,319 --> 00:22:00,640 have to give you the phone her phone own? Because they did that with 317 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:03,480 I don't know, because Natali was holding in her hand. Yeah, they 318 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:07,319 didn't ask for it, but I was like, give me your phone. 319 00:22:07,319 --> 00:22:11,200 But first she gets her picture taken, and then they're like, okay, 320 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:14,279 go wait, go sit in this chair and wait and have your name called. 321 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:19,079 But now all of these people that didn't have appointments, all these people 322 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:22,839 were getting called. And then I started to get She's getting more and more 323 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:26,839 nervous. It's like they're icing the test taker, you know. So I 324 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:30,920 walk, I had to do the thing where you like walk back up and 325 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:36,160 I was like, oh hi, did they forget, like because we've been 326 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:40,440 here a while, Like they're taking all the non appointment people. They're bringing 327 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:42,880 them in. Okay, next application, and all these people are coming in 328 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:48,359 and poor Sadie's just like sitting there, getting more and more anxious. And 329 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,839 then the lady, of course this is a different lady. This is at 330 00:22:51,839 --> 00:22:53,640 the other window and the picture taking window, and she's like, no, 331 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:57,759 should be coming up soon. That was the longest part of the weight, 332 00:22:57,839 --> 00:23:03,119 which was just weird. So by the time then they're like, okay, 333 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:08,279 she's next. Now she's getting really nervous. Oh meanwhile though, so they 334 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,960 say that you can okay. So there's like forty six questions. Let's say 335 00:23:12,039 --> 00:23:17,279 forty five questions. You can get six wrong. But when we go to 336 00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:21,480 the window to go through all her paperwork, she's like, right before she 337 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:23,000 leaves, she goes, okay, So it's this many questions and you can 338 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:29,200 miss nine. And then I'm feeling all confident right because I'm like, oh, 339 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:32,720 she's got this. If she can miss nine, she's gonna be okay. 340 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:36,519 Yeah. So then she goes in she's taking the test. I'm sweating 341 00:23:36,559 --> 00:23:41,119 bullets for her. I'm sitting next to this lady who looked to be maybe 342 00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:48,240 in her seventies, but she's got long blonde hair. She's like cute sitting 343 00:23:48,279 --> 00:23:52,519 next to me, and she starts talking to me and she's like just asking 344 00:23:52,559 --> 00:23:57,039 me questions, and then she tells me that she's like eighty something, and 345 00:23:57,079 --> 00:24:00,839 I was like, well, you look great, look at your hair. 346 00:24:00,039 --> 00:24:07,279 Girl. So she's like, so I failed the test, and now I'm 347 00:24:07,319 --> 00:24:14,240 having to take it again, and she's like, I just don't really know. 348 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:18,200 Like she's like kind of being an old lady with me, like you 349 00:24:18,319 --> 00:24:22,119 know, and I was like, maybe she shouldn't be driving your eye, 350 00:24:22,559 --> 00:24:27,319 but she seems kind of spry. Yeah, but she's so then she doesn't 351 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:32,759 know about Oh. So she's got like the California like the driving manual right 352 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:37,240 right in front of her life. She's studying to take the written she'd already 353 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:41,799 failed it, she'd filled it like the day before, so she's back to 354 00:24:41,839 --> 00:24:44,440 try to take it, to try to retake it. She says, Hey, 355 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:48,279 when you're my age, they make you do the written tests like every 356 00:24:48,839 --> 00:24:52,440 few years. Interesting, Like I haven't had to pass the written test like 357 00:24:53,039 --> 00:24:57,279 ever since I first passed me the first time. Yeah, I mean yeah, 358 00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:02,000 but she's like, maybe it's like every five years when you're over the 359 00:25:02,039 --> 00:25:04,400 age of maybe seventy, you have to every five years you have to take 360 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:08,480 the written test again. Huh, which makes sense. It makes sense, 361 00:25:08,599 --> 00:25:11,680 right, I would want to maybe do it instead of written How about you 362 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:15,279 do the driving one though, right? You know, I think they might 363 00:25:15,319 --> 00:25:18,799 have to do that too, I'm not really sure, but anyway, so 364 00:25:18,839 --> 00:25:22,000 I was like, well, do you have the I was like, this 365 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:25,480 thing that you're looking at isn't going to help you, because she's like, 366 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:30,119 she said, I read this manual and none of these questions were on the 367 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:33,000 test yesterday. And I was like, well, you came to the right 368 00:25:33,079 --> 00:25:37,160 person, I go, because you got to download this app and you could 369 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:41,920 take these anyway. So she was like, oh really, So I help 370 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:45,480 her. I show her on her phone, get her the right thing, 371 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:49,200 and she starts taking she starts going through the quiz. Oh my god, 372 00:25:49,279 --> 00:25:53,160 Lynette, she was like, my new best friend. I am so glad 373 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:57,160 I met you. So they're asking questions. She's like, I never this 374 00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:00,680 is like the questions that are on the task. And I was like, 375 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:03,440 oh, she goes, none of these are in the book, and I 376 00:26:03,519 --> 00:26:06,880 was like, exactly, I go, you don't. Anybody has time to 377 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:11,519 take the whole like basically driver's head right again by reading this whole book. 378 00:26:11,559 --> 00:26:14,200 Now you've got to get to the questions right. So now I'm going and 379 00:26:14,519 --> 00:26:17,119 I swear to god, it was like Sadie two point zero. He's like, 380 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:22,359 okay, well, if there's it's like, if she's asking you one 381 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:25,880 of the questions too, was like so easy. It was like, Okay, 382 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:30,400 if you're driving, can another can you pass on the shoulder of the 383 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:33,640 road if there's enough room, can you go to the right of a car 384 00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,960 on the shoulder of the road to pass? Of course, in my mind, 385 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:40,200 I'm like, you better not ever do that. And the answer is 386 00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:44,640 like if there's enough room, like if to safely pass, And then another 387 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,960 one's like no, but you can do it on the left shoulder, and 388 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:52,559 then the third ones like under no circumstances. And she's reading them like and 389 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:56,559 really analyzing, like, well, I mean if there's room, like if 390 00:26:56,559 --> 00:27:00,920 there's room on the shoulder, like do you think And I was like I 391 00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,279 don't, I don't know what do you think? Maybe we should read the 392 00:27:03,279 --> 00:27:07,039 rest of the questions first, I swear to god, it was like bookend. 393 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:10,079 Ye, Sadie's on the young side. She's a old one. She's 394 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:12,759 like eighty five, sadies fifteen, I'm doing the same thing. I was 395 00:27:12,799 --> 00:27:15,440 like, well, what do you think you know? I go, maybe 396 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:18,400 we should go through the rest of the question. She goes, okay, 397 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:22,279 um, well can you on the left? And I was like, okay, 398 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:29,400 keep going. Let's let's hear all the answers under no circumstances. She's 399 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:34,240 like, I mean, if there's but if there's room to safely do it. 400 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:40,319 I was like, okay, so let's picture ourselves. You're driving down 401 00:27:40,319 --> 00:27:42,799 the road. You're on like a mountain road. There's a shoulder. I 402 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:48,000 go, some car doesn't like the fact that you're driving slow and just goes 403 00:27:48,039 --> 00:27:49,400 on the shoulder and goes around the right side of you. I go, 404 00:27:49,559 --> 00:27:56,240 does that seem say? Does that seem okay? She's like, I don't 405 00:27:56,279 --> 00:27:59,680 think so. And I was like, then what's the answer that we're going 406 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:02,079 to go? So we do a few of those. Then I'm like, 407 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:04,000 I got a tough love her ask to like Sadie. I was like, 408 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:07,039 okay, I'm not gonna help you with this one. I go, you're 409 00:28:07,039 --> 00:28:10,839 about to go in and take so I'm not gonna help you with this one. 410 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:14,119 You're gonna have to see, like what's your intuition. Well then it 411 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:18,079 turns out apparently her son is sitting on the other side of her, which 412 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:22,079 I was like, where, where, Why am I doing all the heavy 413 00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:27,440 lifting already? Wow? He wants nothing to do with it, No kidding, 414 00:28:27,559 --> 00:28:30,799 No, the only thing he does is help her because for some reason, 415 00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:34,039 she's got an iPhone like five sere it got it. It's like the 416 00:28:34,079 --> 00:28:38,359 oldest iPhone. It has like a home button you know, yes, yeah, 417 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:44,319 right, screen crack screen and it goes her screen goes dark for no 418 00:28:44,559 --> 00:28:47,000 reason that I can understand. I was like, well, this is a 419 00:28:47,039 --> 00:28:48,920 tech issue. I don't know what to tell you. So she's like, 420 00:28:49,319 --> 00:28:52,319 I don't know why my screen is dark. I have yelling at her son, 421 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:56,440 like, hey, get her new iPhone, Robert. If you're listening 422 00:28:56,480 --> 00:29:02,960 to Robert phone, and I'm sure way overdue for an upgrade at least every 423 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:06,079 five years as often as she has to take the damn driver's test, give 424 00:29:06,119 --> 00:29:10,960 her a new phone. Right. So Robert like finally takes her phone and 425 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:14,599 like does some adjust it and then he's like here, mom, like he's 426 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:18,000 made her phone light up again. I was like, oh my god. 427 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:22,920 So then then I do, like I watch her go through a few more 428 00:29:22,039 --> 00:29:26,599 questions. She starts getting kind of good, like she starts getting going on 429 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,319 it. I was like, oh, you're doing so good, like you 430 00:29:29,359 --> 00:29:30,559 know, I was like, I think I feel good about this. I 431 00:29:30,559 --> 00:29:33,119 feel good about your chances. Yeah. She's like, oh, I was 432 00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:37,160 like you have to just like not overthink it, like you gotta go with 433 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,319 what, go with your guy, you know, and then you put drive 434 00:29:40,359 --> 00:29:42,880 it for years. Lady Yeah, so then she oh, so then she 435 00:29:44,039 --> 00:29:49,400 tells me you can only miss six and I was like fuck. I'm like, 436 00:29:49,519 --> 00:29:52,960 oh, I don't. I don't think so I think you can miss 437 00:29:53,079 --> 00:29:56,640 nine? Yeah, And she's like, no, it's sure for sure six. 438 00:29:56,680 --> 00:30:00,519 She goes because I missed nine and I failed, and I was like, 439 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:07,599 oh no. So then suddenly I'm not as confident about right. So 440 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:10,240 I'm like, oh no. I was like, but the lady told us 441 00:30:10,319 --> 00:30:12,200 nine, why would she tell us? It's weird? Like, and she 442 00:30:12,319 --> 00:30:17,319 said, eighty five year old over here is like a She goes, well, 443 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:21,559 maybe uh, maybe she's not used to doing like the permit stuff, 444 00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:26,079 like because she's over other things. And and for a second I was like, 445 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:27,920 oh, yeah, that makes sense, you know. But then I 446 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:30,839 was like, that is the permit stuff. That's one of the things she 447 00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:34,720 does all the time. Why would she have it wrong? But now I'm 448 00:30:34,759 --> 00:30:40,960 confused. Then Sadie comes out, maybe it's for a senior citizens it's six. 449 00:30:41,359 --> 00:30:44,920 I think it's over eighteen. I think if you're under eighteen, you 450 00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:48,559 take there's more questions and you can miss a couple more of it. So 451 00:30:48,599 --> 00:30:55,160 if you're over eighteen, there's fewer questions and you can miss fewer. That's 452 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:56,960 what turned out to be. But in the in the moment, I'm not 453 00:30:57,079 --> 00:31:03,480 sure anyway. Just then Sadie comes out all smiles, and so she passed. 454 00:31:03,759 --> 00:31:07,519 And then and then she did that thing where she wouldn't let me text 455 00:31:07,599 --> 00:31:11,440 John or Elbie, who were waiting at home right Xander, couldn't care less 456 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:15,400 you had a friend over, So she won't let me. She was like, 457 00:31:15,519 --> 00:31:18,079 nope, you know what we're gonna do. And I was like, 458 00:31:18,119 --> 00:31:21,440 don't tell me. We're going to do the thing where you pretend you didn't 459 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:23,039 pat where you're all sad and she was like, of course we are. 460 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:26,480 And I was like, oh no, I don't want to be a party 461 00:31:26,559 --> 00:31:32,039 to this. I want to go home with the old ladies. Wait what 462 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:33,839 happened to her? For her? I was like, I couldn't have gotten 463 00:31:33,839 --> 00:31:37,559 on there fast enough. I was like, oh my gosh, good one, 464 00:31:37,599 --> 00:31:41,400 good lie, Robert, take care of her. I was I've never 465 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:45,079 been more happy not to like exchange information, you know. She was probably 466 00:31:45,119 --> 00:31:48,839 like, well, wait, I mean, don't you want to know how 467 00:31:48,839 --> 00:31:52,279 it goes. I was like, I'm praying I'll text you on my green 468 00:31:52,359 --> 00:31:57,200 text. I don't want it goes. It doesn't go blue for me exactly. 469 00:31:59,079 --> 00:32:02,680 Yeah, no thanks. So anyway, we get home and of course 470 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:07,319 I had to play along. Although I and I thought, you know what, 471 00:32:08,079 --> 00:32:12,839 not getting a text from us first, because we were all nervous from 472 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:15,960 her. I was not that confident she was going to pass, to be 473 00:32:15,359 --> 00:32:20,279 totally honest, Yeah, but I was hopeful, right, you know, 474 00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:22,640 but I was like it might be two tries for this girl, yeah, 475 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:27,559 you know. But so anyway, I was like, John and Elbie not 476 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:30,359 getting a text, are going to assume the worst, you know they are. 477 00:32:30,599 --> 00:32:32,440 They're gonna be like, well, we didn't hear from them. They 478 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:36,359 would have told us if they would have called us, right, So they're 479 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:38,759 all braced. They braced themselves for like the bad news. So we walk 480 00:32:38,839 --> 00:32:45,839 in. Sadie's all doom and gloom, and I'm trying not to smile, 481 00:32:45,039 --> 00:32:49,200 so I've kind of have to put like the paper in front of my face 482 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:52,759 a little bit. And John's like, oh, hot to go? And 483 00:32:52,839 --> 00:32:58,960 then she's like ms you know, and then there was celebration all around. 484 00:32:59,119 --> 00:33:01,799 Ah. I love that. I know, that's awesome. I made that 485 00:33:01,839 --> 00:33:07,839 into a very long story. No, it was a good story, but 486 00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:12,400 it was There was a lot of highs and a that's involved in her passing 487 00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:15,480 her permit. That's great. Yes, that's great. So now she has 488 00:33:15,519 --> 00:33:21,160 to wait six months, but it's been really hot. So John, she 489 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:23,799 has to drive a whole bunch with parents, and you know, I'm not 490 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:30,799 up for that. I already almost had like major anxiety driving with Elby and 491 00:33:30,799 --> 00:33:34,759 then I quit on that and left it up to John. And John doesn't 492 00:33:34,839 --> 00:33:38,519 feel confident yet taking her even in the neighborhood. He wants another like time 493 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:43,519 or two, like driving around big parking lots, yeah, like Pierce College. 494 00:33:43,559 --> 00:33:45,599 Yeah, yeah, before he feels like she'll be ready for the neighborhood. 495 00:33:45,839 --> 00:33:50,559 Yeah. So they were going to go out today and John said there 496 00:33:50,559 --> 00:33:55,200 were a bunch of um there were like sheriffs out there. Yeah that like 497 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:59,960 when he tried to get out of the car to let Sadie drive, apparently 498 00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:05,319 he didn't have her permit paperwork with him, So he said, like, 499 00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:08,440 is it cool if like she passed her permit test, you know, and 500 00:34:08,559 --> 00:34:10,559 they were like, only if you have it with you. No, that 501 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:15,960 sucks. So he was like, yeah, should we take a break? 502 00:34:15,559 --> 00:34:23,920 Sure? Yeah, So I'm right between right, got Sunny, your kids. 503 00:34:23,639 --> 00:34:28,800 Yeah, one of them passed, and Elbi's like, yes, a 504 00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:30,960 couple of years ahead, I think. Yeah, she was like sixteen and 505 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:34,760 a half. Yeah, and now she's over eighteen and a half. So 506 00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,239 she two years ago, has had her license for a couple of years. 507 00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:43,079 Yeah, got until October until she can go. Oh okay, well she 508 00:34:43,119 --> 00:34:46,440 has her permit, so she's got to wait until October because she took two 509 00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:51,920 times to pass the test. Sunny Sunny took one time, I guess. 510 00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:58,320 But today on his driving test, you know, some of the Corolla fans 511 00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:01,000 are going to know what I'm talking about. Adam always like right on red, 512 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:05,400 right on red, if the if the if the light is red and 513 00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:07,719 there's no signs that say, you know, no, right on red, 514 00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:12,239 go ahead and turn right up. People don't realize that you can make a 515 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,079 right on red unless there's a sign that says no, right on red. 516 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:21,360 That's his whole thing. So Sonny got all caught up in his head about 517 00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:27,159 that, and he was in the right hand turn, and he was stopped 518 00:35:27,159 --> 00:35:30,960 to make a right on red and he couldn't remember, like his brain like 519 00:35:31,159 --> 00:35:34,679 went on the He's like, oh, I couldn't think I was dad going 520 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:37,119 right on red? Am I not allowed to make it? Right? Should 521 00:35:37,119 --> 00:35:40,320 I wait? Until? So he waited until the light turned green. The 522 00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:45,679 guy goes, you can go ahead and go, you know. So then 523 00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:49,480 like that was one thing he thought that he screwed up on, but he 524 00:35:49,519 --> 00:35:53,639 was okay. And then the other thing was the guy said turn right on 525 00:35:53,679 --> 00:35:57,800 the next street, and there were so many trees and stuff he didn't see. 526 00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:00,280 He thought he was talking about the light. It was small like a 527 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:04,880 stop sign, so he missed that, and he thought. And then the 528 00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:07,559 guy goes, oh, I meant the right on this street, but just 529 00:36:07,599 --> 00:36:10,000 go ahead and pull into the parking lot at the DMV and park it. 530 00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:14,079 And so Sonny thought, oh shit, I he thought he failed. And 531 00:36:14,079 --> 00:36:17,719 then the guy got out of the concert you passed, so wow. Yeah, 532 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:22,719 I was gonna say, like they can't stop him because of that, 533 00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:25,719 because I thought, like, he's got a rule of that road, follow 534 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:30,039 the direction exactly. Yeah, I hear they're very strict about the backing up 535 00:36:30,519 --> 00:36:36,159 things back up correctly, like when you go and reverse, you have to 536 00:36:36,159 --> 00:36:39,360 go and reverse like a few feet and if you don't stay exactly parallel to 537 00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:45,039 the curb, they'll just still fail you. Yeah, so one of the 538 00:36:45,039 --> 00:36:51,719 Elbe's friends failed twice. I believe one of the times she failed because so 539 00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:55,239 it's funny because Albie and I were just talking about this yesterday. Because if 540 00:36:55,280 --> 00:37:00,480 somebody's walking across the street, okay, so if you're if you're on the 541 00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:04,639 right side of the street and somebody is coming from the left, they're crossing 542 00:37:04,679 --> 00:37:07,599 in front of your car. They're the end of their crossing is going to 543 00:37:07,679 --> 00:37:13,159 be in front of your car, right, the law is you they have 544 00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:16,480 to be all the way up the sidewalk before you can go, so they 545 00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:22,800 can't be like stepping onto the herb. That's illegal you and that's an automatic 546 00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:24,599 fail. By the way, if you do that and the person doesn't have 547 00:37:24,639 --> 00:37:29,400 both feet standing up on the sidewalk, you fail. So when all these 548 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:34,320 friends failed, if they're going the other way, okay, so they're starting 549 00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:37,400 their cross in front of your car, you only have to wait until they're 550 00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:40,960 on the other side, like until they're past the middle of the street, 551 00:37:42,159 --> 00:37:45,840 right, okay, right, they're past the center line, you can go. 552 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:49,320 Which that's the one thing I didn't. I knew that you gotta they're 553 00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:52,840 in front of you, you gotta wait. But going the other when they're 554 00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:57,159 going starting out in front of you, I would think you would think they 555 00:37:57,199 --> 00:38:00,960 have to be all the way the other side on the sidewalk over there, 556 00:38:00,119 --> 00:38:07,639 I don't wait, right, Apparently they don't. But it's funny because every 557 00:38:07,679 --> 00:38:12,440 time, because after hearing that story, ever since, I'll be told me 558 00:38:12,519 --> 00:38:15,119 that story. I'm such a stickler for that. Like I'm like watching the 559 00:38:15,119 --> 00:38:19,480 people like, Okay, I remember it, Yes, from when I had 560 00:38:19,519 --> 00:38:22,639 to do my test, I just did a really stuck in my head. 561 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,519 Yeah, it's the stuff you get wrong. I know, you know that 562 00:38:25,599 --> 00:38:30,559 you do wrong, right that you're like, oh, I better not ever 563 00:38:30,639 --> 00:38:34,920 do that. Yeah. I remember I got a ticket once for I was 564 00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:37,079 in the car pool lane and then I spaced out. I was in the 565 00:38:37,119 --> 00:38:42,400 car pool lane without not on purpose. I was coming back from the airport. 566 00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:45,400 I was really tired. It was in the morning. I dropped somebody 567 00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:49,400 off at the airport. John, I guess I'm coming back and I'm just 568 00:38:49,599 --> 00:38:55,119 mind I'm auto driving and the car pool line lane starts, right, so 569 00:38:55,159 --> 00:38:59,400 I'm in it. And then as soon as I was like, oh shit, 570 00:38:59,519 --> 00:39:02,280 I'm in the their car pool lane started, so I got out of 571 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:07,800 the car pool lane. Well that's illegal. So either way it's illegal. 572 00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:09,760 It's illegal to be in the pool lane, but it's illegal to come out 573 00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:14,360 of the car pool lane unless there's the dotted line. Yeah you can. 574 00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:16,440 So I got pulled over and then I tried to explain that to the police 575 00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:21,559 officer. I was like, okay, but I accidentally got in the car 576 00:39:21,599 --> 00:39:24,280 pool lane and I that's illegal, right. I was like, so what 577 00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:27,719 was I supposed to do? And he goes, you were going to get 578 00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:31,119 a ticket either way? Oh jeez, yeah, asshole. But you know, 579 00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:35,760 I see people all the time going in and out of the car pool 580 00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:39,079 lane when they're not supposed to, and they never get I never see anybody 581 00:39:39,119 --> 00:39:44,800 get pulled over. Some of the time. Like I'm driving back from Newport 582 00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:49,599 Beach and you know, I can go in the carpool lane because I got 583 00:39:49,599 --> 00:39:52,119 the Tesla and it's got the sticker things. But then sometimes I gotta get 584 00:39:52,199 --> 00:39:57,159 like I'll see, oh, you're like a low emissions. Yeah, yeah, 585 00:39:57,199 --> 00:40:00,960 yeah, so that's nice. But then like I'll see, oh god, 586 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:02,320 the four I'm supposed to be on the four five and all I'm gonna 587 00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:06,360 go down to seven ten if I don't get out? What am I supposed 588 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:08,960 to do? Right? So I take a chance and I go out, 589 00:40:09,599 --> 00:40:13,039 and like sometimes if I'm with people, they're going, yeah, that's illegal. 590 00:40:13,119 --> 00:40:15,840 I I know it's illegal, But what am I gonna do? Get 591 00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:20,880 swept down to seven ten? Fuck that shit exactly. I'd rather take a 592 00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:27,280 risk. Oh my god, we're living on the edge, I know. 593 00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:30,719 So it is sunny. So has he no, it just happened.

It was like all the different freeways and he was a little shaky 606 00:41:15,559 --> 00:41:19,000 when he got out of the car. I ain't gonna lie. He was 607 00:41:19,039 --> 00:41:22,559 like showing me the the sheet that you know, the guy marks up and 608 00:41:22,599 --> 00:41:23,760 stuff, and we're like trying to read it and I'm like, Sunny, 609 00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:25,920 you're shaking. He's like, oh, you know, it was a little 610 00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:30,280 you know, but nerve wracks, nerve racking. So I was like, 611 00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:34,639 yeah, I'll drive, I'll drive home. Yeahs he used to driving on 612 00:41:34,679 --> 00:41:37,320 the freeway. Yet he's getting there. Him and I go for drives a 613 00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:43,679 lot. Ever since he got pulled over, though, that's been Yeah, 614 00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:45,199 it wasn't his fault, but he did get pulled over. But it was 615 00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:49,880 good experience for him. Now he knows, Yeah, you get pulled over, 616 00:41:50,199 --> 00:41:53,559 don't veer to the left on the freeway. Yeah, get over to 617 00:41:53,599 --> 00:41:59,599 the right. Always hasn't been pulled over yet. Knock knock on the Microphone's 618 00:41:59,639 --> 00:42:01,880 good. But um, she did get in that fender bender, right, 619 00:42:02,639 --> 00:42:07,159 so that somebody didn't the guy take off or something? No, the guy 620 00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:15,199 no, but he according to Elbie, you know, he was like kind 621 00:42:15,199 --> 00:42:19,360 of fucking with her on the entry getting on the freeway and like just slowing 622 00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:23,280 down in front of her and so and then he like stopped short. What 623 00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:28,360 the and she hit him? What an asshole? Not going fast at all? 624 00:42:28,519 --> 00:42:31,719 I mean, there was like almost no damage to our car except that 625 00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:35,679 then of course when you bring it into a body shop. But the guy 626 00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:38,280 filed a claim on his insurance, so it's like, well then we might 627 00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:42,639 as well have our car fixed, right, So then and then that was 628 00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:46,519 remember it was months, right, they just couldn't. It was just like 629 00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:50,599 such a small thing on the bumper. But anyway, yeah, yeah, 630 00:42:50,639 --> 00:42:53,480 but she was that was a shaking, yeah, shaky feeling. Right. 631 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:58,400 Well, how do you prepare your kids when they start driving?

You can talk to them until your 634 00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:07,679 ears are their ears are burning off, like, but they're not. First 635 00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:09,639 of all, they don't really listen, or at least my kids don't. 636 00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:15,559 You're never going to be prepared for that, and you tell your daughters to 637 00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:17,679 not get out of the car, like, right, if you if you 638 00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:21,760 get in a car accident with some guy, do not get out of the 639 00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:24,199 car. I mean unless there's people around. Yeah, like if it's at 640 00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:29,440 night and somebody like bumps, you do not pull over and get out of 641 00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:34,000 the car. You wait right right? Call the police? Yeah you know, 642 00:43:34,199 --> 00:43:37,840 yeah, because that's like scary.

Like and she's actually a very smooth 661 00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:47,440 driver, like she's she's good. To be honest with you, I think 662 00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:52,880 she's a little better than Sonny because Sonny gets very has he's very you know, 663 00:44:52,639 --> 00:44:57,920 a little bit scared and has he hesitates, and you know, sometimes 664 00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:00,639 when you hesitate, you can it's not good when especially when you're driving right, 665 00:45:00,719 --> 00:45:04,480 like if you're gonna go around this person, pick up the speed, 666 00:45:04,599 --> 00:45:07,880 don't hesitate right, you know, where Natalia is like I got it, 667 00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:10,519 you know, she just goes around blah blah blah. So it's it's interesting 668 00:45:10,559 --> 00:45:15,960 how everybody's different, especially as a as a parent you're taking your kids out. 669 00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:20,440 It's like I feel a little more saying safer with Natalia. But it's 670 00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:23,280 like, you know what I mean, I've been getting used to driving with 671 00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:28,760 Elbie a little bit because since my foot's been in a boot normally because of 672 00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:32,800 my anxiety. I'm like, I'll drive you take a load off, like, 673 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:36,639 don't worry about it, you know, because I do. I but 674 00:45:37,119 --> 00:45:42,039 it's with everybody, the passenger anxiety. I just think you're gonna take a 675 00:45:42,079 --> 00:45:45,199 mirror off of a park car, Like I just can't help. But like, 676 00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:47,199 do you know how close you are? Like yeah, it's just my 677 00:45:47,239 --> 00:45:51,639 own shit, you know, yeah, and uh, you know, I 678 00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:57,000 don't like day drink to relax, right, So but I've been letting LB 679 00:45:57,199 --> 00:46:00,639 drive and just like around and I'm like, oh, she's a pretty good 680 00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:05,639 driver, right, she's pretty confident. Yeah, well she's been driving a 681 00:46:05,639 --> 00:46:08,159 long time two years now. Yeah, she drives. She told me that 682 00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:13,599 it's like one of the one areas where she really doesn't have anxiety. She's 683 00:46:13,639 --> 00:46:16,960 like, I think because well, when she got her driver's license, she'd 684 00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:21,280 been driving a lot. She was into it like your kids. She was 685 00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:23,880 like she wanted to drive, like every day. We would drive for a 686 00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:29,119 long time every day. So once she got her license, she was a 687 00:46:29,159 --> 00:46:32,320 little bit shy about like driving on the four o five at first, but 688 00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:37,679 then she got used to it right and pretty soon she was like she's the 689 00:46:37,719 --> 00:46:40,239 one that all her friends are the more confident with her driving, Like she 690 00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:44,599 drives over that She's driven several times, like over the canyon to go to 691 00:46:44,599 --> 00:46:49,119 the beach, like windy roads and like nothing really scares her anymore. Yeah 692 00:46:49,159 --> 00:46:53,320 that's good. Yeah, that's interesting. It's because she's got control of the 693 00:46:53,400 --> 00:47:00,280 situation. I want. Yeah, I think she's just feels cough like she 694 00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:04,920 put herself in a lot of situations early on where not on purpose, but 695 00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:07,440 where she had to go find someone's house that was like up in the hills 696 00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:14,360 and was on you know la with when in the hilly areas where you're the 697 00:47:14,519 --> 00:47:16,440 road narrows, yes, and you don't know what to do, so like 698 00:47:16,519 --> 00:47:21,639 do you wait for to pass? And she's had to be in those situations 699 00:47:21,719 --> 00:47:24,440 where yeah, you know, yeah, and she's gotten like honked at by 700 00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:28,440 Pete. You know, she's been in those situations and lived through it. 701 00:47:28,639 --> 00:47:32,880 Yeah. Yeah, that's interesting. That's good. Wow, well nice, 702 00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:37,360 Yeah, one of your kid's gonna dry. Kalen not for a long time, 703 00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:42,079 got ways to go. You really like Britney spears, putting them in 704 00:47:42,119 --> 00:47:46,840 your like lap while you drive. Probably at some point you put coke in 705 00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:54,840 their like bottles, right, they haven't had any any soda yet. Yeah. 706 00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:58,440 Wow, good I've been able to keep it away from them. That's 707 00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:01,840 good. That's great. Yeah, that is good.

Why would she? 712 00:48:23,920 --> 00:48:27,880 Um, today, we were going with the method of just you know, 713 00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:30,599 take the diaper off, leave it off, put the underwear on, 714 00:48:30,039 --> 00:48:34,719 and she peeed like three times without the diaper on. She she did manage 715 00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:37,159 to go in the potty finally before I left for work. Um, but 716 00:48:37,239 --> 00:48:42,199 yeah that was after like three times of just peeing all over the first Well 717 00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:45,079 it takes, that's going to happen. Yeah.
