Well, next time I'll make sure I have Sissy or Grace with me. That way they can tell me what to do and I won't get as flustered.
Or maybe not. That still hasn't helped much with the left turn thing. The access road from our house ends up on a major thoroughfare, and to go towards town, you have to make a left turn across two lanes of traffic. I require a very large gap before I feel safe turning, moreso since my accident, and it sometimes takes a few minutes before the gap is big enough going both ways. I get honked at a lot. Sissy says I'm waiting for a space three times as big as I need, and Grace concurs. The difference is that Grace has given up and lets me do it my way, while Sissy thinks she's "helping" me by pointing out all the gaps I could have turned into. Anyway, I tend to just turn right, pull up to the light and make a U-turn. Drives Sissy nuts.
Different situation here, though, so I think the next time I need to go to the drivethrough, which would be on a Saturday morning because the lobby is always open on other days.
[sigh] How did I get to be 30 and not know how stuff like this works? This is the kind of stuff thats just supposed to come through osmosis as you grow up.
If the university ever pays me, I might try it again just for practice. I definitely like the lobby better, though.
