I am no Jack Kerouac....
(Is it weird to anyone else that I only write on this blog when I am moving???? Anymove...on with show...)
Today was my first exciting day "On the Road" and well....it was pretty non-eventful. I woke up...got in my car....and drove off.
Welcome to Ohio
With my trusty Gnome by my side, courtesy of Traycee Tab, I traversed the mid-west. But something bugged me...not that I was talking and singing to a gnome...nah if you know me...you know that doesn't bother me...he did not have a name! For 499 miles, I contemplated, trying to draw inspiration from what was around me. Then at a rest stop in Indiana, the angels sang and a single beam of light rained down from the heavens to illuminate a truck...the truck that would bare his name...
Pacer Stacktrain!
During the day Pacer and I mostly just kinda chillaxed....
Listened to a Romance novel on my iPod and boogied. Though at one exciting point my iPod battery died and I was left wondering if Katie and Boyd were ever going to be in love...Was Anthony her father?!?!?! Pacer agreed with me these questions need to have answers! So in a stroke of genius, I remembered I had this lap top...so I turned it on and plugged my iPod into the lap top. You see I figured I could get through one day on the iPod battery and plug it up every night....well...you see...I was wrong. Figurin' has always been my weak suit. ANYWAYS. In a mere 30 minutes we were again entangled in the story. Tomorrow the exciting conclusion!!!
Another exciting time, I pulled away from the gas pump and forgot to put the cap back on...
But I figured it out not even .1 mile down the road so it was all good.
Okay well I am getting tired...so here are my not so Kerouac-ian enlightenment's for the day...
1. People of the mid-west do not know how to react to a polite, 29 year old woman...with purple hair...
2. Cruise control might just be the best invention man has ever invented
3. 55/65 is not an appropriate speed limit ever!
4. You can actually play Stockholm Syndrome by the Muse too loud -- previously thought impossible
5. There is a place in this country called Michi-ana.
WAIT! You maybe wondering...umm..Cupples/Jamie/James/Red/Little Kid whichever you call me...ummm there are tags for pictures...but no pictures...what gives?
Well my good friends and family...I am on a &R$^#&$# government laptop and they made it so I can not upload any new programs to my computer...including my software for my camera...so I cant get the pictures off the camera and into the computer without having administrative rights. YES, it sucks monkey balls...I agree! I will try and get that corrected tomorrow. Until then....
EDIT by Jamie: SUCKAS! I FIGURED THE PICTURE THING OUT!!!

Actually I believe the gnome's name was Trax Glabaka..but hey gnomes are like cats..I'm sure he doesn't give a care about a name change. And how the hell do you play Stockholm Syndrome too loud? I'm intrigued
