Vroom vroom

The Parent Bloggers Network is asking what you can do just as well as any man out there.

Hmmm.

I have no sense of direction. I can't read a map. I can't shoot a basket and have no idea what to do if my car won't start (although I'm going to register my vehicle on MyCarPage at Ask Patty, it's a start.)

I have a younger brother, five years younger who I never paid attention to. I played with Barbies, dress up clothes and make up. I never touched a toy with wheels. I knew nothing about vehicles.

Until I had a son.

I would challenge any man on the street. I know the difference between an excavator and a front loader. I can spot a gantry crane five miles away. Could they?

I can pick out a Chevy from a Ford. I know about cylinders. Good lord, I even know who Jeff Gordon is and about NASCAR. I never saw that coming. 

My house is littered with cars. Literally. They are in my shower. On my bed. In my briefcase and jacket pockets. While I'm writing this? My son is racing them across the couch and occasionally over my foot.

That's my cue. Time to go play race cars.

Check out this weekend's Blog Blast .This week, they have teamed up with Ask Patty, the premier automotive web site for women, to promote their new feature - MyCarPage.  You can read more posts and maybe win a nifty gadget for both men and women!
