And the Wheels go round

What is it about driving?

I know I posted a audioblog a long time ago about this.

But I really like driving. It’s something that’s calming for me.

As long as it’s not morning/evening commute traffic.

There’s a peace about being able to be driving down the road all alone with my thoughts or just zoning out and experiencing just getting there.

Today as I drove from LA to Sacramento, it was a nice drive.

I left about 9 – 9:30 and got to Sacramento about 2:45.

I had a good sing along to RENT (if you didn’t know it’s being made into a movie) and listened to Something Corporate and some KCRW while I could. KCRW had this awesome special about Leonard Bernstein that was like 11 hours long. I’m just bummed that I won’t be able to hear much more of it. Maybe I can listen on the internet.

I’m looking forward to my next road trip with John. We are thinking of driving up to Seattle and/or Spokane for New Years. Should be a good time.

I think for the ride home I’ll listen to the Les Mis soundtrack.
