tips about driving through the night

If you ever find yourself in the predicament of whether to ‘beat the traffic’ and drive headlong through the night for several hours in hopes of finding yourself at home in record time, by God do not do it. 

Unless you enjoy feeling like you are flying blindly trapped in a dark tunnel into the wee hours of the morning, talking to yourself and hallucinating up your very own three-ring circus, your limbs shaking and twitching and tapping from inhaling an entire Rockstar Roasted only hours prior (THE best energy drink by far, I would say), please take my advice.

I’m glad to have learned this lesson early while I am young and my body can still rebound from this sort of cruel and unusual abuse. After this six-hour long nightmare of a drive, from 11pm til 5am, I stumbled-shaking and muttering nonsense bits of swear words- into my front door, my eyes wild and every shadow morphing into gangs of menacing ghostly creatures. 

I shit you not. Save the long midnight drives for the truck drivers and crack-whores.
