Headed home


Headed home

I am so glad that it's still a little bit light out when I leave work on weekends now. It just makes things so much easier. Now, when I get pulled over by the cops and they ask "Do you have any idea how fast you were going?", I might actually be able to say yes. See, the dashboard lights have been out on the Jetta for the past month and a half, so I really don't have any idea how fast I'm going. I just kind of guesstimate it according to the flow of the traffic and on the MassPike, the flow of traffic can be anywhere from 42mph to 95mph.

Luckily though, the clock, the mileage and the gear listing are all still lit, so at least I'm not late, I know how many miles are on the old junker and that I've got him in Drive. YAY!

Are you trying to say you've recently been given a speeding ticket????

no... no ticket.. just trying to shame Mike into climbing under the dash to see if maybe it's just a blown fuse. But it does cross my mind every time I see a cop on the highway that IF they did stop me and ask me if I know how fast I'm going that I could literally point to my dashboard and say truthfully. I HAVE NO IDEA. LOL!
