Today I drove Klara to school.
Then I drove to Walgreens to get a pink pool noodle.
Then I drove to a diner to get breakfast because I now can eat diner food.
Then I drove to the post office to mail a package.
Then I drove home because N wanted me to check if he’d left his wallet at home.
Then I drove to a gas station.
Then I drove to the mechanic to repair my car’s AC.
Then I drove to another post office that accepts passport applications.
Then I drove to the Global Foods store.
Then I drove back home.
Then I drove to pick Klara up.
Then I drove us to the swimming pool.
And then I drove us home.
And that’s when I realized I had crossed over to the dark side and became part of the car culture.
Based your comment in an earlier post about doing your Korean beauty thing while driving around, as if it’s no big deal, I think you crossed over a while ago.

Good point. 🙂 I’m now the enemy.

If you’re doing ANYTHING except concentrating on the road while you’re behind the wheel of your car, you may not be part of the car culture for long!

I can see you are not very familiar with Korean beauty rituals. 🙂 All I do is wear a patch on my nose while I drive. The patch reduces the size of pores. Not that I have inordinately large pores but it’s still fun.

You’re right about that! I saw a lot of pretty girls when I was stationed in Korea, but had no idea how they got that way.

The dark side is the fun side! I absolutely love driving.

” I absolutely love driving”
I didn’t mind driving so much (that having to do so for work – 200 to 400 mile jumps every few days got very wearying). And I hate traffic (having to drive through Fort Myers Florida twice a day for the better part of a year did that).
Tootling along on a well kept road in the country with very few other vehicles around, the air conditioner on and the windows open – fun.
Negotiating an eight lane free-for-all when every other car is either a half-blind retiree or a redneck driving a beater that should have been sold for parts years prior and none of them watching much where they’re going … pass.
