Road Trip!!

July 14 2005
At this time tomorrow, I'll hopefully be nearing the Virginia state border.

For now, I'm sitting at my grandparents' watching Fox News beat the Natalie Halloway case into the ground as they interview random Aruban attorneys who are in no way related to the case aside from the instance of their nationality, and wondering when China will get around to nuking us.
Good times in America, foo'.

Some people.... *Exasperation*

My family desires me to work for that television network. They fail to realise that my political views would get me both sacked and maimed on the first day of job training.

The amount of makeup women wear on that show is astounding. They must use trowels.

Car commercials get weirder every day. Watch the latest Eclipse commercial and you'll see what I mean. [Tribal drumming is sooooo relevent.]

My frickin' god. I may be in all likelihood staying in-state for undergrad.
For a good reason. A very, very good reason.
I'm floored.

So yes, Virginia.... I get to test the acceleration of Granny's zippy new [red, might I add] Honda. Woohooooooo! *Grins*

Now my grandmother is discussing the properties of date-rape drugs sold in Aruba, and how they react with alcohol. And various methods of being safe at parties. Interesting. And analysing the handcuff patterns used on Joran Van Der Sloot [such a surname if ever I heard one; I know he's Dutch, but it's still just plain funny]. And on to sonar and cadaver dogs.... She's quite amusing -- I love her.

Thunderstorms are not one of God's greatest accomplishments, let's just clear that up right now.

You know you're best friends when you run a box down to their house, she's not there [because the lucky bitch is in the School of Visual Arts camp in Manhattan], but you stay for over an hour just talking with her mum and sister. :) Woot.

Quote of the Day
"I'm all for you moving out!" -- My beloved mother.
She didn't mean it that way. We were discussing my habitation should I attend MTSU. Because I really don't want to be the type of person who lives at home through college and then moves out when she gets married. Granted that works for some people [my cousin undoubtedly will be included in this], but trying to survive outside one's childhood home just seems to be an important developmental step.

Hey I'm living at home... *tear*... ha ha but that's because I have no money... hmmm... better luck next year perhaps... You could work for a tv network... if they gave you your own show... ha ha... and you could just rant and rave and do whatever you wanted to.
