Day 07 → Someone who has made your life worth living for.
i hate being *that* girl. the girl who just couldn't live without her chuck but i am. it's true. as with any reasonably intelligent girl, i have/had some "falterings" in my life. my breaking point, when i almost left this cruel world was the end of college. i was reckless, i was stupid and i stopped wearing my seat belt. i know to some of you, this might not exactly be the horrifying and rebellious act it seemed to me but, at the time i felt like not wearing my seat belt was the height of the devil may care attitude i was trying so hard to cultivate.
i would think, "nope, not gonna do it. whatever happens, happens. so there, universe!" while i was driving i would say, "look at you, not wearing a seat belt, eh, rebel? anything could happen!" i would actually get a bit of a thrill while i was driving when i realized i was tempting fate yet again. it's a bad habit to get into but one day, i started wearing it again.
i thought about why. was it because my mother yelled at me? no. was it because i was finally felt that i didn't need to be a bad ass? nope. turns out it was because of my chuck. i could foresee an actual future. i could see it spreading out before us, together. i wasn't hiding in my distractions anymore. i was digging myself out of the hole my seatbeltlessness represented.
i still sometimes forget, especially in the passenger seat, it seems like a party over there. however, when i'm with chuck he always acts suitably horrified. it's silly but i really do get a little thrill thinking that someone other than my mother cares whether or not i wear my seat belt.

Aw, this is making me all cry-y in the pants. : ) I love Chuck, too. But um, not like that. More like in a "hey, thanks for watching out for this chick I like" kinda way.
Awww- so sweet. Y'all are lucky to have each other!
All of you guys always wear all of your seat belts!
I once saw the video for defensive driving where the trooper said 'so you think you can just put out your hand and stop yourself from hitting the window in a crash? Well, try running as fast as you can at the side of a brick wall and stick your hand out to stop yourself. Remember that's only 5 to 7 mph, imagine that time ten, or times twenty if a head-on collision.' The physics of it all are scary.
Very sweet. I would care too you know, if Chuck wasn't there to do it for me.
Hold on a second, was this BECKY being SAPPY? Bring it on! :)
Also? Wear your fucking seatbelt, girl. Seriously.
