Driving is Sweet!

One great thing about all this chaos is driving the car again. I have missed the poor old car. It's nearly 15 now, I forget just which month it was new. Anyway, I am a bit rusty on driving and maybe more aware of what I'm doing than I need to be. If that makes any sense. It is nice to just get in and drive and go exactly where I want. Waiting for the bus, walking between stops and looking for where the route goes is not my favourite mode of transportation. But it's ok.

One day someone will invent something you just step in and go exactly where you want to go, right to the very room or hallway outside the door. No need to wait for a bus or look for a parking space. No fuel consumption either, it will be very green. Somehow. I would like to still be around to see it. I'm going to miss so much by dying, what a nuisance death is. It really gets in the way of seeing how the story of everything turns out.

I am trying YouMob now. It looks fun. But, I notice that the traffic doesn't show up on my counter. Kind of interesting. It must all come through their site - opens mine in only a frame so they never catch my counter. It's interesting cause people rely on the counters so much. If your counter doesn't show a click was anyone ever there? Of course, I can see people have been looking. It's funny though cause it feels like whatever doesn't show on the counter doesn't count. Of course, literally it doesn't. But that doesn't mean people aren't reading or at least clicking and leaving quickly. Just shows it isn't good to get too happy with your blog counter. Just be happy.

There are crocuses blooming in my brother's backyard! I will get a photo when I am out there. I brought along my cable so I should be able to post a photo while I'm here.

You know I have not even looked at my counter in a while. I have a good number of hits but to be honest I have no idea how many

LOL Love what you said about death being a nuisance.

I totally love it when all the flowers start blooming in the spring!

Hi Laura!

Firstly, thank you for your lovely comment over at the Indieblgger WC page :) It made my day, I can tell you!

I love having a car as well. Here in Perth we have extremely crappy public transport, and things are pretty spread out, so unless you live in the city you're stuck without some kind of personal transport. I hope you find a home soon, or at least get those moochers out. Keep your chin up!

That thing that will take you instantly to your destination? It's called a transporter.

And I sure do wish we had them already.
