Public entry Road Trips Suck
May 09, 2008 @ 11:54:32 pm
Have I ever mentioned how painful road trips are?

You know in theory they sound like fun. I mean it a vacation right? Wrong! For some reason it's the only time Knight and I fight, oh and do we fight. I get bitchy, he gets sulky...the rational scenarios of who can leave who at the side of the road, and the perils of living in a community property state comes up often....sigh. At least we only have a little over an hour left until we get to Indy. Then we wait a week and do it all over again to go home. Yippee ! Or not. At least this time I can drive his van so that helps...for once I could actually stop when I wanted to. I guess if this is our biggest fight times we're doing ok, we're just both so stressed out in general over his recent health issues that it is the first vaction since thanksgiving. X-mas in a hospital doesn't count.

on the plus side we got new phones so i can rant on here and sort of lurk. TFS is a little rough to navigate, but I'm desparate enough in the car to do it. I can read my gmail ok, so thats a plus.

You guys are so like my parents in that department. Seriously, you have summed up every road trip I have had to endure growing up thanks to my parents.

Maybe it won't be so bad if you use the non-driving time asleep. Or maybe reach out to the outside world during that time. Or do like me and buy a CD player and CDs, or an MP3 player. Or do like my mom and invest in a portable DVD player and start a road trip DVD collection.

I bet it is rough because you didn't bring any pasteurized processed cheese in a can?

I hope it gets better on the ride home! You'll make it!!
