Lately, I’ve been less inclined to jump in the car just because I’m feeling restless, but otherwise I haven’t changed my driving habits much.

When you’re required to have a car for work, it’s hard to be a good citizen and catch the bus, as much as I’d relish sitting wiih a book in my hands instead of a steering wheel.

Today, I got almost all the way to work when I realized I’d forgotten my laptop. Another day, I might have been able to work around it, but not today.

Normally, in a situation like this I’d mourn the loss of time. Today, I was more saddened by the waste of gas.

On my way back, I decided it’s time to figure out some gas saving measures… beyond making sure I have everything with me when I leave.
