To Drive or Not to Drive

We had an all-company meeting today offsite. It would be difficult to have it on-site, because my company has a total of 8 sites...so we have our General Meeting at a local Signature Theatre. They are usually kind of fun, but they take up three (3) hours out of our day, and I don't feel much gets done when we have them every-other month.

My boss offered to drive this time. Last time I drove. My boss lost about 20 years off her life, because she is a CHICKEN rider! lol I drove the freeway going that time, but because she was so uncomfortable, I used surface streets going back to work.

Have I mentioned that I am a (driving) control freak? The thought of riding with My Boss, who drives like a "Little Old Lady" (which she is) makes my blood run cold! I SO did not wish to ride with my boss today! Therefore, I PROMISED her that I would take all surface streets, not tailgate (which I don't do), squeeze into little-bitty spots while driving (which I do), and generally be BORING!! She agreed to go with me, the other co-worker also went, and I was (mostly) happy. The 10 minute ride via the freeway took 25 minutes. I almost fell asleep at the wheel I was so bored! lol
