Some key events/quotes from my recent trip to Texas:
1. Running into (almost literally) a friend from school in Blythe, CA; population 10
2. Hearing men at a truck stop in Texas complain about dinner not being ready for them when they get home
3. After rain has been falling on the windsheild for about 5 minutes, Sandra (the driver): "Is it raining?"
4. Me: "Sanra, do you need to sleep?" . . .as I veer off the road.
5. Being pulled over twice. . and getting ZERO tickets.
6. Sandra offering the police man chips while he's questioning me
7. Telling the police man that officers in Thailand didn't give me speeding tickets becuase they are so nice, just like in Texas, right??
8. Me: "You know, it really wouldn't be so bad to fall asleep at the wheel." (we were in the desert. . i mean really. . there's nothing to hit.)
9. Creating an art installation in the car.
so. Texas. 25 hour drive, and good times.

yay fantastic! I'm glad the roadtrip was a success!
wow! did you visit meagan?
also, even though i was NOT named after blythe, ca, i'm always inexplicably happy when people visit or drive through the town.
and the population is actually a remarkable 10,000...and it triples in the winter. i did some research.
triples in the winter? how funny. well, it was a lovely place. i guess i only saw .001%. :)
