Did you know

that when you eat M&Ms and then drink orange juice the resulting burp tastes like tequila? I discovered this during my cross country road trip. Enjoy that trivia!

A very quick road update

I am in Dalhart, TX. What? You don't know where that is? Well, neither do I! But Google did...it is in that little sliver of Texas really close to Oklahoma where the little panhandle part of OK is. Totally cleared that up, didn't I?

Anyway...a few picture teases

Scenes from the rearview



Rollin' through the hood, LOL!



I have LOTS to say about my trip so far...for instance, this is for all the people from Minnesota who seemed to be SURROUNDING me while I was driving. I'm not sure what they teach at Driver's Ed in Minnesota, but most places I've been the standard rule is that you DO NOT DRIVE in the left hand lane on the highway, it is for passing ONLY. GET OUT OF MY WAY!!!!

There is absolutely NOTHING from Lake Havasu City to New Mexico..well, pretty much. Where do you people go to the grocery store?!

More later....I'm going to bed.

I'm getting worse

at this blogging thing, aren't I? I make a promise to update more often and then I go off and don't post for the longest time. And...for no good reason really!? I mean, I have been doing things, but nothing so earth shattering to prevent me from blogging. I guess I just haven't felt that anything was interesting enough. But that's all about to end. I am on the beginning of a journey that will take me from the heartland of America to the west coast and back again! That's right, I'm blogging from PHX (for those that are travel challenged that is Phoenix SkyHarbor Airport). I am on my way to LAX (again, oh challenged ones...that's Los Angeles International) where I will be cabbing it to the Long Beach pier to pick up my car!

Then the real adventure begins as I make my way BACK to the Hoosier state all by myself....oh the SHEER JOY!!! No one yelling from the back seat that the movie is over, no screaming "he hit me!", no begging to stop at EVERY single McDonald's that comes into sight. Ahhhh....heaven!

So, I plan to stop this evening and get some good sleep in since the limo (yes, a limo picked me up for the airport this morning! I only ordered a regular car) picked me up at 345am! Whew, on a good night I'd just be coming home from the clubs at that hour :) I've brought my camera and my THIRD new lens (don't get me started!) so I will be sure to take LOTS of pictures of really COOL stuff that I find along the road. Where is that "world's largest ball of twine" anyway?!
