Headed back to work after lunch? Get lost in thought and start driving home.
On my way to see my SO? Get lost in thought and start driving home.
Going to the Doctor? Get lost in thought and start driving home.
I’m not who you asked, but I wrote PHP website years ago, that stores everything in an .ini file. It’s super simple, and has worked for us for over a decade with minimal updates.
