Getting there can be fun

depending on the part of the country in which you live and your age and economic situation, your date may offer to pick you up in a cab, a limo, a scooter, a wagon, a bus, or not at all. While a car, especially if it's yours or your dad's or your older sib's or your granny's may sound fun, and there is something lovely and prom like about the ritual of leaving your home on a first date and walking together to the car (will he hold the door open? will she unlock the inside?), I want you to consider other safer and potentially saner, alternatives.
