When we said we were driving down to DC together
I understood we would both share the driving responsibilities.
That meant – in my mind –
that after one of us drove
the other of us would.

So imagine my surprise
when after I finished driving
and was ready to take a break around Wilmington,
I found myself driving some more.

Guess we should have been clearer about the ground rules
before starting out, huh?
Guess I should have defined the terms better.

Anyway, on the way back,
we’ll be splitting the driving fifty-fifty,
just so there’s no misunderstanding.
I’ll need some time off the road
on the way back North.
You get it?
You got it?
Good!

Did…
did you just say you don’t know how to drive?
