I have arrived! Although I did get lonely and crabby at times, the drive went extremely well. Here are some highlights from the solitary roadtrip of a lifetime.
* I was mistaken in laughing at Lara's going away gift of tp; the masterminds behind United States' highways are definitely not green tea drinkers. The barf bag also came in handy after seeing a trucker simulate sexing me. Thanks girl!
* I have an amazing voice. Just ask all my worldly possessions, they heard.
* Around hour 17 of driving the anti-abortion signs starting popping up: "Kill your baby, kill your soul", "Having an abortion? Arent' you forgetting someone?", "God Made Hangers for Closets"....that last one may have been a hallucination.
* I don't know how truckers live the life of a road rogue. I gnawed on stale snacks because I read in a puppy training book that chewing enduces defecation and my mom had me thoroughly freaked out about how long hours of constantly sitting affects that.
* I travelled four days across twelve states (Washington, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, South Dakota, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia) and only ever saw four police officers. Considering one was in a Subway and another at a rest stop, I felt very confident speeding at all times.
