Holy hell could the average person suck worse at driving? Lastly it was the first time I've gone away with out Nic. It was a bit bitter sweet. All in all I had a nice weekend though. Mainly I sat in a lawn chair staired out at a lake and drank with friends.
Talked with the neighbor- the one who lost her 38 y/o husband unexpectedly last fall- yesterday as she was headed back home to S. Ill. to go to a party. First time she was going to make this particular party since she and her husband always went to their place at Carlyle Lake over the holiday weekend.
I bet she felt similarly.
I bet she did. I hope she had a nice weekend. As stupid as this sounds for me it went a long way in building some confidence. It was a bit hard to go, I just wanted to say home but I kind of said "you can do this" and just went. All in all it was nice. I have a few longer trips planned later in the summer so it was a step towards them.
I was hoping for a workload that matched my motivation today, but got hit with a load of dog [expletive] before that first sip of coffee and it was all downhill from there.
Otherwise, I would've stayed with my original plan and spent some quality time on GRB.
