Wheels.
Every now and then I miss having a car. The Snook, mostly, does not. This week we compromised by signing up for GoGet CarShare. (Well, I signed up, anyway.) It’s sort of a hippie collective where you pay $15 a month and you can cheaply rent these little cars that are parked near your house. There’s one in our neighborhood. They sent me the key today and everything! The only stressful bit was passing the “CarShare Exam” over the phone. Thankfully, the Hermione Granger-like zeal with which I studied the Online Orientation meant I scored five out of five. (FIST PUMP.) We’re going to try it out this weekend. I’ll be sure to post our experiences for you other carless hippie-types.

Woo hoo, ROAD TRIP!
That orientation is very clever; it reminds me of the Dharma Initiative. We have something like that here (http://www.flexcar.com/), too, which I always thought would be great to join (if I didn’t already have a car from my evil corporate highway commuting days).
