Dec. 22nd, 2003 07:49 pmSaturday morning when I got out of work, we'd had a frost. Normally this would mean nothing except that it was colder, yet still without snow.
Must pause here to say I WANT SNOW, darnit!
But for some reason this time, my car had frosted over. Not frozen in thin ugly sheets of ice, but frosted. It was almost like someone had taken and painted little tiny snowflakes in decorative patterns, and it made me wish I'd had a camera. Sooo pretty! I sat in the car admiring the 'snowflakes' until I finally had to turn on the heater and get it defrosted to go home.
When I got off from work this morning... << I need theme music for this, I just realized. Misadventures in driving theme music, that I can hum while I'm driving along, looking for where-ever I am looking for, and thinking 'Gee, I should make an entry about this'.
So - post office. Thought I could find my way back, after Dad had led me there the first time, but nooo. Of course not. I was determined to finish my mailing, though. So I drove around for an hour, looking for the stupid post office.
Amazingly enough, I was able to find my way back to Lane - not luck up and stumble across it, but actually find my way back, through recognizing streets. :o
I just couldn't find the post office! x.x
Fortunately, when I gave up and came home to use the bathroom and ask Dad for further directions, he took pity on me and said he would take the things in, so I could get some sleep. ^^; So I gave him over what I figured it would cost, so he could get something to eat. Because I figure the lines had to be horrible, and it was very nice of him to go through standing in them for me.
