Don’t Drive Tired

Every now and again I enjoy just going for a drive (when gas prices aren’t too gouge-atastic).  No real destination in mind; as the saying goes "it is the journey that is important".  This one time; it was quite late at night, I was feeling a bit tired but I just didn’t feel like going to bed.  Instead I got a sudden urge to go for a drive.  At first I thought I would stay in the city, but pretty soon I found myself out on the open highway.  Then a kind of unusual thing happened.  Because I was driving while tired my mind began to wander in some rather wild directions.  For a minute I thought I saw a wild boar on the side of the road.  Then I suddenly became convinced that there was a large door in the middle of the road.  At first I thought I was going to run right into it, but then it occurred to me that I could unlock this door with the key of my imagination.  Once I was through it I knew that I was in another dimension.  This dimension had what I can only define as more-real-than-real qualities.  The sights and sounds were astounding.  It was the dimension of my mind.  Then I moved into a different land.  It was a land that had both shadowy qualities as well as actual substance, it had things and ideas that I couldn’t quite grasp.  I came to believe that I had just crossed over into the twilight zone.

    Oh my, definitely don’t drive tired.

    Once I was driving from South Carolina to Missouri and I got really tired. I woke up when my passenger screamed and I found out I was no longer on the road, but instead in the middle of a wide grassy median..still going about 75 mph.

    Oh no, don’t drive tired.

    One time I was tired enough to see animals in the road that weren’t there, like a boar howling at the moon. Definitely dangerous. And two guys working for the company I do drove off the highway at full speed because the driver fell asleep. Only cost $18000 to fix the truck.
