Life as a new driver

[grenegome]

I am wondering if it's normal to reassure oneself by loudly singing the kind of advice that might be issued by a more experienced driver, if such a person were actually present in the passenger seat, instead of, well, a handbag.

Waiting at the lights to go around a roundabout where the lanes get a bit confusing… is it weird to belt out “FOLLOW THE LINE! FOLLOW THE LINE! FOLLOW THE LINE!” to the tune of Strangers in the Night?

Maybe it’s because cars have never been quiet places for me. Suddenly being the only person in the vehicle with no idea how to turn the radio on is a little unnerving.

In fic related news, I just hit thirty thousand words on the Dresden Files genderswap thingy… which is boggling and hilarious all at once. I really want to find out how it finishes and then go back and re-draft and find out if any of it is, in fact, any good. Interesting times!
