Well, I'm what the title says- on the way to Memphis. I've been in the car for, let's see, 9 hours? That is, if you include the two hours taken to sit in an un-air conditioned camper as my dad WROTE A CHECK. Someone please explain how writing a check takes 2 hours. Regardless, I've been travelling for 7-9 hours now.

So how am I on the internet? Because, dear reader, my dad has this amazing little device that I like to call THE AMAZING LITTLE INTERNET CREATOR!!! I'm sure it has a more technical name, but I think mine works just as well.

On this lovely road trips of sorts, I've learned some very important life lessons:
-iPod batteries don't last as long as you want them to. EVER.
-Covering your head with a sweater and forgetting to turn on the air-conditioning is rather uncomfortable. Especially if you just ate fast food. (More on this later)
-Gravel + steep slopes + slip-on shoes = DUMB DUMB DUMB.

<sub>(Haha, my parents just freaked out and thought we were lost. It took them quite a while to calm down and figure out that they were still going the right way.)

So about that sweater....</sub>

I brought my PSP and my copy of Final Fantasy: Crisis Core to play. Well, I started playing and I got to Chapter...11, I think. Caves and darkness and stuff. Well it's midday outside, and no matter how bright I make the screen, I can't see jack-squat. I wander around for a good 30 minutes before switching to Plan B. I throw my sweater over my head to eliminate the dreadful glare. Too bad the backseat of this car has absolutely no circulation or sun protection. Plus, I had just eaten McDonalds. Needless to say, I played for an hour, feeling ready to throw up the whole time. That or die of heat stroke. Oh, the things I do for video games Still haven't beaten it though....

I'm trying to think of something else to say, but my leg is distracting me. It has been in a daydream state for the past 3 hours. Not quite asleep, but certainly not awake either. Painful....

One of the weirdest compliments that I've ever gotten:
"You're like a female Ichigo. Except you're not as frowny...and you don't have kick-butt shinigami powers."

Thanks. I'll treasure those words forever.
