(Community Matters) I must have driven slower than usual, and I did make a few short stops. Also, having received a speeding ticket last time and no real hurry, I know I kept to speed limits – which at 80 and 70, isn’t such a burden.
Tons of work & catching-up on telephone calls during the drive. And, though I’m not on Twitter, I suppose I somehow tweet on Facebook since I was posting status updates along the drive:
