Drive

Ever drive? I mean really...just drive..nowhere to go...nowhere you want to be...nowhere you can think to go. Just drifting basically (no...not going sideways )....like a leaf caught in the wind.

Music loud...each breath visable because of how cold the night is...the roads empty...each shift feeling like a great effort...but you keep going wondering where it is you want to go. Wishing you wanted to be somewhere so you could just go there....

Re: Drive

I used to do that 2 or 3 times a week then I got married. Now I "just drive" to the store, work, babysitter.....

Re: Drive

Ive done it.. infact I still do and did it yesterday.

Re: Drive

Its always one of those things you never plan on when you start driving. with me, I just get the mood to drive somewhere. and then just keep on driving. I drove to Iowa (100 miles away) just to get some Kum and Go lighters. Just had the urge to drive

Re: Drive

most relaxingthing i can do, just go for a cruise on a warm summer night, windows down. Radio on, but not blaring. Just listening to the car, the wind, the radio. Driving around spiritedly. . .ahh i cant wait for it to get warm!

Re: Drive

I hear you about getting warm. Its like 44 here today and you just can't wait for that first day where you can drive with the windows down. Can't wait for winter to be over.

Re: Drive

I do it quite often because usually my car is the only place im happy and where I have time to think, usually around like 1am I just go drive on the highway for about an hour

Re: Drive

Do it so many times it's insane how much gas I waste.

Sometimes I try and find a reason to go out and drive but if I can't I just say "fuck it" and just hop in and drive around town. Sadley I don't live in a large enough town to keep me occupied for hours of driving, such as Toronto and Montreal, but just enough to keep my urge at bay.

I don't do it as often in the winter months, mainly because people go all retarded when snow hits the ground and cause dumb accidents, and even though I drive cautious during these times, I can't predeict other idiots' movements on the roads. Come summer, if I'm in town, I shall do it at least once or twice a week.

Re: Drive

Same here about the winter thing, I like it when I can roll the windows down, compared to not.. thats the main reason since it doesnt snow much in Texas if at all.

Re: Drive

absolutely, about once a week

i usually use up like 1/4 tank on these drives. i put in some "The Doors" music and just take roads i have never taken before and drive until i realize i am too far from home, or i am completely lost.

Re: Drive

Use to do it all the time in college. Especially if I woke up early and couldn't sleep, and had a lot on my mind. Grab an energy drink, roll the windows down and turn up the music.
