I feel a bit guilty as I am not managing to write long blogs just now. I have been out until too late and it is now nearly 2330! Tonight, I managed to meet up with Sarah, or should I say Auntie Sarah, from my MSc class. Her brother and his wife had just had a new arrival 5 weeks ago. They live in the most beautiful and enormous house inside the loop. I went straight from work and, as usual, missed my turning. No surprise though, as it involved getting across six lanes of traffic, during rush hour in less than 0.5 mile! However, what it did mean is that I have now found the 'Hood' in Houston! I was praying none of the lights would be red, otherwise I would have to stop and all my tyres would be nicked! I felt like I suck out like a sore thumb - white female! I did manage to get out safely as I am writing you this.
We had a lovely dinner and it was great. It sure beats sitting around the house watching Top Gear re-runs all evening :)
I went and sorted my EZ Tag this morning before work, so I can now drive through the tolls without stopping on the tollroads. Most importantly, so I can get quickly from work to the airport next week :)
I am off to take my driving test tomorrow so wish me luck. I will make no comment on the blog if I fail!!! The pressure :) Must get some sleep in preparation for getting there early to sit the written test and hopefully the practical test at the same time.
