    He’s trying to look innocent and relaxed but that dog looks like a shifty character to me.

    I wish I could switch gears into relaxation mode so easily…

    This is how I drive in our town where the geniuses managing the town decided to reconstruct all the major roads at the same time.
    Switching to gear 2 feels like speeding. Guess, when the company I work for wants to put an end to WFH. 🙂
    I would need this dog to offer emotional support to me while I drive or just take over driving as it is.

      I was driving on an interstate the other day when four things happened simultaneously:
      1. I passed the last exit before the actual exit I wanted
      2. The lady in my phone told me the exit I wanted was in seven miles
      3. A light-up sign told me a wreck was blocking two lanes in five miles
      4. My low fuel light came on

      So I spent the next half hour of my life creeping along at walking pace with several thousand of my closest friends along a stretch of road with no shoulders, wondering if I was about to become Part of the Problem.

      When I got to refuel, it took a tenth of a gallon less than the official capacity of my tank. By that point I might have needed two goldens.

        Yikes! We call that coasting in on fumes. Glad you didn’t become Part of the Problem.

        “Handing over 2 cute goldens to BFB” This was stressful even to read.

        I feel ya.

        Two years ago I had an apt by my office and I was on the highway when I realized that I had forgotten the exit number as I sailed past it.
