Wildest Dreams- Drive
When I asked where we were going, Mr. Prent replied, “Let’s get out of this town; drive out of the city, just… get away from these crowds of students and teachers…” And witnesses. “I like the sound of that.” So we went on a long drive.

Just got home. 10 minutes earlier than a normal day, 10 minutes later than a good day. God, Mondays suck.
