Tick Tick Tick

2:40 am and The Cutie is snoozing away to my right. Getting in a power nap before we embark upon our voyage. I tried to join up, but like a kid on xmas eve, i found myself too excited to sleep!

I can't believe we're doing this!

What an ADVENTURE! What will it be like? Driving in a little car together for a minimum of 6 days! Today he bought an adapter so we can plug in the laptop. We'll be able to watch movies, or write... I'll surely be trolling for wireless internet signals. Maybe we'll jam out to music. Maybe we'll talk. Maybe we'll soak up the togetherness in contemplative silence. Maybe we'll be bitchy and tired. I'll doodle in colored pencil on my long neglected sketchpad. He'll play his dusty "Lord of the Rings." Maybe we'll make nasty love in a dive roadside hotel. Maybe in the car? We'll eat the food of a half dozen states. We'll get lost. Found. Don't know. Don't care. Our only plan is to play it all by ear! I can't wait!

I can't wait.

That's the best kind of trip. We did one of those where we drove out the the Southwest. Best trip of my life. And just made it up as we went.

still checking out your links. i think you have to keep those dogs on a leash. they'll run run run away. and they bark. i knew someone who had a couple of them and she worked for a vet so she knew all about them.

and then i was job searching for you. i'm being a procrastinating freak. i should be reading for work. i'm thinking, if i were you, i'd want to do what?

not that you'd actually want to do these things...but sometimes offering something out there helps narrow things down. like do you feel like steak for dinner? chinese?
