Oh dear Blog, can we still be friends? I have neglected you so. In all my months of blogging, the last two have been a pathetic attempt at giving you the attention you deserve. I am the first to admit it, although I appreciate all of the hints from friends on the issue {wink}. I'll try and step it up because I do love this place.
Wanna a peak inside my brain for the last couple weeks? Here goes the randomness:
01. I have lots of thoughts about road trips.
02. That is what 25 hours in the driver seat will do to a girl.
03. Road trips are good in 6 hours doses if you are carrying cargo that are shorter than 3 feet or in a wheelchair.
04. Any longer is pushing your luck.
05. Not sure how some drivers have missed the road rules about moving
out of the left lane when the car behind you is going faster.
06. When people fail at abiding by this rule I question if their DNA should really continue in the human gene pool.
07. Karma, I don't mean to kill all those bugs. Please don't take it personal.
08. The best bummer sticker I saw in Idaho was:
Annoy a Liberal. Work. Succeed. Be Happy.
09. It made me laugh.
10. I thought of a few ways to annoy him.
11. I even tried driving slow in the left lane in front of his jeep.
12. No, I didn't. That would be crossing a line.
13. Driving the open road elicits a spectrum of emotions.
14. Couple it with good road trip music and you got yourself a cocktail for lots of thoughts and reflection.
15. Like the fact that I hate MS.
16. It gets me teary on the open road while listening to reflective music.
17. Speaking of MS, I get to facilitate a group on intimacy at the yearly MS Couple's Retreat they do up here in Seattle.
18. I am excited and nervous.
19. But mostly excited.
20. We move into our new place next week.
21. And I am mostly excited.
22. My to-be kitchen is so dreamy I might want to sleep in it.
23. Or maybe just cook lots of new recipes.
24. And fall delights like homemade chili and breadsticks.
25. You can come over if you want.
26. I will make you fall treats.
27. Or homemade Mac & Cheese because it should be eaten in the fall.
28. And all seasons for that matter.
29. If someone thinks their Mac & Cheese recipe is the coolest please email it to me.
30. I am looking for really good Mac & Cheese.
31. Because we are moving out, David, my brother took my parent's big tv we use in our den up to Bellingham because that is how he rolls in college.
32. We put our much smaller tv from our room in the den.
33. Watching Curb tonight was not the same.
34. I suggested we push the tv up closer.
35. Because the whole Sinfeld cast looked really small.
36. Change is hard.
37. But good for the soul.
38. Like blogging.
39. And old friends.
40. And sisters who stay up until 2:45 am with you because you can't stop talking since it has been so long since you've shared a room and it is just like old times and you are thankful so much for this person that might be one of few people who hates MS as much as you do (among other things).
41. But I planned to end on 42 because I prefer even to odd numbers and like the number 42 for some reason.
42. So I guess that means I am ending now. See you soon.
