Yesterday I drove to Connecticut and back for Easter at my aunt's house. I'd like to point out that I love my car, I really do. But that being said, there are a couple of... well... issues.
For one thing, my cruise control has stopped working for some reason so I couldn't rest my leg for the entire two hour ride. Also, my tape player broke long ago and I don't have a cd player. I had a big tape player in the back seat which I used to make mix tapes for from all my cds, but the batteries died. I was doing o.k. for a while with my radio's scan button but it seems like I can never find a good radio station once I enter Connecticut. And for some reason it seems that every single time I'm driving there I end up hearing that Gladys Knight song, "Midnight Train to Georgia". Sometimes multiple times. I'm not sure what that's all about, but needless to say, I inevitably ended up turning the radio off and singing to myself for the last leg of the trip.
The weather was beautiful and I had my window down. There was so much green everywhere I looked and the sky was blue. The way things have been going lately, I have to confess that a part of me wanted to just keep driving and never come back. But I was getting a little sick of Gladys Knight and my leg was getting tired.
