cedar_grove... you get into your car and burn yourself on the steering wheel.
I was at two different schools today, and as lunchtime came around I had to go from one to the other. The sun had been beating down on my car all morning, and as a result the steering wheel was scalding hot... and you think about these people that leave animals in the car... I shudder.
I thought I knew my way around Leicester pretty well... turns out I wasn't entirely accurate. I hadn't really thought it would be much different actually driving myself, than having been in the passenger seat. I've gotten lost more in the past few days than I ever have... never quite lost enough to make myself late, but it's starting to bother me. Mum said it will get easier, I hope so. I want to know where I'm going. I've even given thought to investing in SATNAV, but the cost and questionable reliability puts me off a little. I have and A-Z street guide, which has all the schools in red, but that's hard to read as you're driving along.
