the key word

here is trying. i never said i COULD and DID already drive 65. just said i'm trying. i'm a native LA driver deep down, so the habits are hard to break.

photographic evidence:

half of the way home, i was going about this speed.
stopping, starting.
yeah, not so great for the efficiency,
but i can't control traffic. sigh.

then traffic let up,
and i subconsciously went with the flow.
oops.
even after noticing, i kept going at the same speed.
for awhile.
hey, i wanted to get home to the bear and my dinner already.

then i thought about my gas bill.
and my blog.

p.s. don't ask why i redacted the odometer. i just had a compulsive urge to blur something since i'm posting photos of my car.
