Driving Down Under

Greetings from "tomorrow"...

So I finally got in the driver's seat. Interesting, for sure. The biggest battle for me is with my own sub-conscious. It thinks it knows what to do. It has no idea. My concious has to keep telling it to be quiet...its not going to be useful to "us" for quite some time. This is the job of the conscious brain. And I was wrong about driving straight being easy...why you ask? Because I am not accustomed to being that close to the meridian on the right. I want there to be a little more distance, comfort zone, if you will. Problem is, then I am too close to the edge of the road or any cars trying to get around me on the left. Good thing you have to keep LEFT except to pass...a little more comfortable over there.

I haven't set the winshield wipers going to signal a turn TOO many times yet. Just a few. But then it is only the beginning. I had a thought to put a sock on the lever for the windshield wipers to help alert me of what I am about to do...we are not going to need socks down here anyway...except maybe to protect feet from biting ants (see previous post).
