I think we all remember our first drive on our P’s. A lot of us were freshly eighteen and feeling invincible, knowing the world was at our feet. You sit in your car for the first time by yourself, put the radio on louder than you were ever allowed to when driving with your parents, …
I am the resident carbon monoxide of this air conditioner. I have resided here since my home was installed, but I was dormant as everything else was “working” and therefore there was no room for me to move.
