Reverse Pet Peeves

Last time I got pulled over I was on my way to church choir practice. I'm the director and I was speeding to get there on time. I said, "I'm sorry, officer, I was totally speeding, but I need to be at choir practice in 2 minutes because I'm the director. Do what you need to do, but please try to get me on my way as soon as you can." He went back to his car, probably ran my plates to make sure car wasn't stolen, and about 4 minutes later I was back on the road with just a warning.

Time before that I was on my way to a church youth activity with four 14-15 year old young men in my car. I passed a cop on the highway--I couldn't see him, he was to the right of a truck or something; I was in the left lane going about 10 mph over the speed limit. Cop pulled me right over and ticketed me. The young men totally loved it.

When you're trying to figure out how to use your Audible credit and a book you never expected to have another book in the series has one and has the same fantastic voice actor from the first one.

Children of Time is a great book (I've only listened to it, but Mel Hudson is fantastic).

Children of Ruin is starting out really strong (Mel Hudson again).

I didn't expect it after the way the first book ended, but this story, this universe has a lot more story to tell and it is really working so far.
 
Discovering that it's more traditional for women to pay for dates in China!
But seriously, is that for real?

I'd expect that due to the one child policy, which resulted in fewer females being born, they'd be in the position of being wooed by at least a few different acceptable males.
 
Yeah, but then they expect stuff after dinner.
Oh, yeah! That's terrible!


I do have some pretty funny stories about that but probably not for sharing on here.

I've had some funny comments and questions though. Someone told me a was very hairy. Which I'm not at all by USA standards. Someone told me she was disappointed that I was more skinny like an Asian than an American. She then tried to get me to eat every food place we went by. Another woman told me I was very relaxed and easy going, which I agreed. She then asked if I got my anger out in private and hit women. I was like wtf? Uhhh no. She just said good.

Yeah, it happened to me on multiple dates. Then people told me that was the case. Then I looked it up online. There are more men than women. I think there is some reason due to that but it seems odd to me. 0 complaints though!
