Four Counties

Things might be afoot. You will hear it here first. Well, okay, you’ll probably see it first on Twitter, but my Twitter feed is included here so you’ll see it in all sorts of places first and this will be one. Or is it? Or IS it? OR IS IT?

Last week, I suggested that people should slap me if I hadn’t booked driving lessons by this weekend. To disappoint many, not only did I book lessons mid-week, but today I spent almost three hours behind the wheel of a car, driving across four counties and doing just under one hundred miles. Plus I-40. And I didn’t kill anybody! Or myself! I am as surprised as everybody else, to be honest. The instructor even told me that I should start researching cars. I want a sm@rt car so, so much. However, I know it’s not all that practical, so any suggestions would be welcome.

It was a bit chilly today for this month’s Food Truck Rodeo, which probably contributed to it being a smaller event than the previous one, with slightly shorter queues. Though that’s not necessarily a bad thing given how long the queues can stretch when it’s warmer! Ended up trying Deli-icious and another cupcake truck. Not a bad way of spending a Sunday. Saturday seemed to consist mainly of Adam Curtis, ironing, and waiting at Fiction Kitchen for a table. Still, the ‘chicken’ and waffles were worth the wait.

Now, though, it’s cold and I have to get up early tomorrow, so early to bed and hopefully the wake-up before dawn won’t seem so bad. Hohoho. Though at least I have chocolate hobnobs now, thanks to Luke!
