Alrighty. All I have to do is feed the strays and I'm done for the day.

Hopefully it won't be raining at sunset.

When I walk down to the park they're all sitting waiting for me lol

Also if it started raining just now, it's because I left the house to go for a walk in my gym gear

I've been looking at the route I ended up driving yesterday, which involved some major wrong turns due to the difficulty of following GPS directions for an area of the city I don't know that is also effected by major roadworks. I think I was supposed to get off the Western Fwy and head north around the Ring Rd, but I missed an exit and ended up on the Westgate Bridge, then had a brief diversion off the Fwy and around the Convention Centre dropoff circle before getting back on the Fwy and through the tunnel. About the same amount of time to get home (if you ignore the 10 mins the convention centre diversion added) but a significantly more expensive and unpleasant trip.

I absolutely hate city driving, but I am finding the new van quite comfortable. And the side mirrors give much better visibility for changing lanes and merging than the car did.
