Not only are you a furry, but you literally look like someone who would be as well.

The best way to avoid two red lights is to use two right turns.
As I was traveling behind a wall of slow traffic that had been bunched up by previous red lights, I look ahead just in time to see yet another light going red. Using a turn lane to bypass the traffic, I made a right at the light onto a frontage road alongside the highway.
Keeping pace with the traffic that had just started to accelerate again, I drove along the frontage road until the next stoplight on the highway, which had also turned red, so I pulled the same maneuver back onto the highway and passed the entire group of cars right as their light turned green and all I had ahead of me was empty highway.

My friend jake who drives a modded Prelude has a neighbor who drives an RX8. It's so loud that it echoes off of cars and houses in the neighborhood and pisses people off.

A month has passed since I last updated this so I guess I'll update it considering that last post.
Some stuff has happened but nothing very exciting. We managed to get each other very sick from being in close contact when she came down with some at-the-time unknown virus. We both ended up fighting an upper respiratory virus, bronchitis, and pneumonia (I myself managed to get food poisoning too) and therefore didn't see each other as much over the course of recovery (we're both still coughing after more than 3 weeks). After she was briefly hospitalized and I ended up in Urgent Care, we got meds to deal with symptoms.
But of course, while we were keeping our distance from each other, she gets back together officially with her ex again. Although disappointed, our separation had me weaned enough from her attention that I wasn't all that butthurt about it. I walked straight backwards into the friendzone and stayed there with little effort at trying to escape it. At the same time though, that yearning for more was still there.
Getting back into the game:
I stopped making conscious effort for the most part to keep the ball rolling between us. Then one day, while we were both working the same shift and goofing around as usual, she offered to let me come with her to her eye doctor appointment. I didn't take it seriously at first due to just being casual, but at the end of our shifts she once again asked if I would come with her. Interested that she had her attention on me, I told her I'd go with her. However, I decided to take more control of the situation and pointed out the fact that she had no license plates. Realizing that driving her car could get us pulled over (plus the fact that riding in the car with her is admittedly scary), I suggested we take my car since I'd just put my legal license plates on my car and there should be no legal issues. It just made sense, you know? Using her phone for GPS and music (she's always my DJ when in my car) to find the eye doctor, we got there over 30 minutes early. She suggested we try to kill time (hahahaha no), so I told her I knew of a Taco Bell very close by (TB is kinda our thing). We went through the drive thru and not only did they not have our usual Mtn Dew Baja Blast freezes, but they only gave us 3 packets of Diablo sauce (her favorite sauce). I look in the bag and give her a look before saying, "You're gonna need more Diablo sauce than that, aren't you"She just laughed shyly and said yeah, so without further thought, I parked my car, went inside, and came back outside with a heaping handful of sauce packets. She was laughing so hard and said I was the sweetest friend ever before giving me credit on Facebook and telling all her other friends. At the eye doctor, the time we spent together was used in taking selfies and laughing at handicapped memes we found online. She then let me choose her eyeglasses, and I just so happened to choose glasses that were outside of her mom's budget (she's on her mom's insurance). Instead of asking me to choose a different pair, she whips out her phone, calls her mom, and convinces her to get the glasses anyway. The whole trip ended up being a pretty good success. I of course took the long way back to her car so we could talk longer.
Reunited under bad circumstances (Spicyness Level: Queso)
About a week ago, I happened upon the scene of a double fatal car accident that ended up in the total destruction of a rare car. As it turned out, one of the fatalities was that of her best friend's brother. Rather concerned because I've known her friend since I was 13, she kept me in the loop on how recovery was going. Then the very next morning, her grandmother passed away suddenly. And about two days after that, her mom started charging her $700/month rent to stay in her own house and then kicked her out when she wouldn't pay it. I lent myself as one her backbones of emotional support even though bad things were happening to me as well (nearly got kicked out of my house permanently due to parent issues). When she found out about my issues after finding me sitting in the break room way before my work shift was supposed to start, I talked over my situation with her and asked how hers was doing. She said she had a temporary place to stay but to stop worrying about her situation and to fix mine. She then pulled me up by the arm to give me a hug, which I didn't find to be unusual. But then, she added a little kiss on the neck. My mood went from hell to several levels beyond Cloud 9. She then returned two hours later with Starbucks for me. That kiss + that caffeine had me going nuts for the rest of the day. I was in literally the best mood I can even remember in recent times. For once in my life, other people were actually telling me to calm down and set a good example because I'm known for being very calm and collected all the time, but instead I was being loud, overly cheerful, and downright crazy. Since that day, she said that if I have further issues with trying to move out on my own, I'm welcome to stay with her when she gets her own apartment next month. Although that's rather conflicting with my life plans, that offer though.
At this current point, we're constantly visiting each other at work regardless on whether or not the other person actually works. We are also texting literally every single night into the wee hours of the morning.

If we keep Texas there's an increased risk of them influencing other states to make my car illegal.
That's a downside.

I will put flowers on the plant's grave.
Also just realized that I received explosives from an unknown sponsor and died of an explosion. Whoops. Gotta be more careful next time.

I'm now enduring that feeling when your best friend gets his first car and he's wildly excited about it even though it's nothing special whatsoever.
After I helped him get his license test out of the way, his parents pulled a loan and he bought a 2010 Cobalt...4 doors....automatic....but wait it has power windows. Of course, he's now flooding every existing method of popular social media and my phone with pictures of his car. He bought an $800 set of Falkens for it and he's now prospectively looking for ways to mod the car. I'm just sitting back trying to be encouraging but he looks kinda silly.
Just the other day, he was begging me all day to ride with him in his car. Seeing as he's so excited and just got his car and has had his license for not even two weeks, I was skeptical but finally told him he could drive me across the street and back. I mean, it's a nice small fuel efficient car. Pretty comfortable too, but that's comparing to my extremely conservative no-extra-comfort-added police car. But during that short drive, I felt bad when he told me that he put the pedal to the floor and I didn't even notice.

And what an upgrade it was
First time I ever drove legally by myself with a license, I was literally just driving a 5 mile round trip and was almost in an accident with a police car.
Just got my first fender bender.
Ofc it had to be with a jaguar so my insurance rate goes up from 80 dollars a month to literally 150 a month.
