so, you know how last week i mentioned that i had seen english fog? well i think the country may have taken that as a challenge, along the lines of "that aint fog! THIS is fog."

yesterday morning when i left for work it was foggy. it's still foggy now! and this was proper can't see more than 70 feet in front of you fog, which is ok when you're walking, but when you're in a metal box with wheels (otherwise known as a car), it forces you to drive ridiculously slow, whilst deliberately not thinking about the movie, the mist!

and it stuck around all day! i kept thinking why is the sun not burning it all away, and then i remembered that i don't live in scorchy land anymore, where the sun rules all.

i took a picture of what it looks like outside this morning.


i kind of like the fog, though jeff assures me that it can get worse than it was last night, which adds yet another dimension to my driving fears!

speaking of, we finally bought a second car, and i am now the proud owner of a nissan micra (insert other car details here). it's red and boxy, and whines if it gets above 65 miles an hour! i haven't named it as yet, but my affection for it is slowly growing.
