Thank God for Cars...

So it seems that the only way to get my son to take a nap these days is with a car ride. I feel like I have a colicky infant, but no, I have a 2 year old. Might as well be a colicky infant with the tantrums I put up with lately. Today he had the audacity to tell me "No" when I asked him to do something. I thought this stuff didn't start until he was in his Bossy 3's. Shows what I know.
But I digress. So lately I long for the car rides that give me a little piece of heaven: Silence. I can actually think! But usually I'm jamming to Lady Gaga and Britney Spears--my taste in music is inpeccable and I dare you to question me. It reminds me of being in high school where driving around in your car dancing to Britney Spears was cool--or maybe I just thought it was cool. And looking like a fool? ::gasp:: Never! Actually, thinking about all of this makes me excited for the days when my son is in high school and I'm still jamming to Britney Spears when I drop him off. lol. Poor thing.
So basically, this is what I've spent the past two days doing. Driving. And its been excellent. Really excellent. Even if I am wasting so much gas I am single-handedly destroying the ozone one mile at a time. Silence makes it all worth it...
