For all the times I've pulled Eric's stick shift out of the driveway and then pulled it back in again, I think I should be proclaimed a proficient stick shift driver. Eric taught me how to drive a stick shift probably more than a year ago now... and we've practiced several times since then. I'm not all that great at it. Once I'm in first gear I'm home free. I have no problem switching gears. It's getting into first gear that trips me up. I don't know what about the concept is so difficult... but it's kept me from driving on public roads because I'm too scared I'll kill it in an intersection or something. But after all these times pulling Eric's car in and out of the driveway... I think I'm mustering up the courage to try again... sometime soon.
