zippity-do-dah

As my dance gigs are starting to range further afield and I am starting to feel worse and worse about scrounging for rides, I've been thinking more and more about joining ZipCar.  While looking at their website today I found that there are two ZipCar spots with two cars each within a half mile of my house, so I think that clinches it.  My biggest hesitation had been that we have a single car-width driveway and thus have to share keys with the neighbors, so I wouldn't really be able to park a ZipCar in the driveway (no overnight street parking in my town).  But those drop off spots are close enough to walk home from, so I would be able to return the car immediately after using it any time of day or night.

I know some of you reading this use ZipCar--are there any negatives to the service?  It seems awfully happy and shiny.

I would have to get some kind of GPS device thingy, if the cars don't come with them.  So probably a new phone.  This is going to be one of those money saving things that ends up costing money, isn't it...

Okay rehearsal at the Dance Complex last night.  The people in the studio before me were rude and overstayed their time, even though they knew I was waiting.  I should have just gone in and started stretching.  So that was a little stressy, but I got work done.  Unfortunately it was mostly work on music that I'm not actually performing to this weekend, but having fun should not be underrated as show preparation :-)
