OK, so I've discovered in this little car-free experiment that...I'm not a blogger! Who has time for up to the minute rehashing of a day gone by?
Actually, this is related to what I've discovered this month sans auto: I like to be slow, I like to do nothing, the fast lane is too fast for me.
To wit: I was worried that without a car I'd be rushing around all the time because it would take so much time to get places by bus or bike. One trip to Seattle by bus squashed that misconception. You don't **rush** anywhere on the bus. You go where the bus wants, when it wants, no decisions required! And I love that. Who knew that giving up my car would free up space in my brain?
Yes, I have decided to give up my car--even before my month is up. Just the money it eats makes it untenable to keep the thing. Remember: I work more than a month a year to pay for it, and I could definitely do something else with that month! (Or with that money.) Anyone wanna buy a 2003 Matrix with low miles (and good mileage)?
As for blogging, well, maybe the new brain real estate coming my way will generate more consistent musings...if not, you can just picture me blissed out at the beach staring into the far horizon.
