And it really ruined the tempo of my day. I have been car free since June, and my girlfriend happened to be down for the weekend, and my road bike was in the shop, so I had no choice but to take her car.

I have always enjoyed biking, but I never realized until yesterday how much I truly enjoy it until I had to actually drive home. Its only a 20 minute ride roughly, but it's thereputic to me, and the most relaxing way to end my day. People take cars for granted. I think I actually took NOT having a car for granted the last three months.
