From the Road

Internet access is something I take for granted on a daily basis. Today, I had to drive 10 miles and ask directions twice to find a public library so I could check on yearbook pages that needed to be submitted. Granted, it gave me a good excuse to check my email, update my blog and in general feel connected with the world again, but for someone who is as addicted to the internet, digital communication (IM, text, etc) this trip has been aggrivating to me. I even brought the laptop with me and have found a few spots with free Wi-Fi, but not very many. I think it was all part of an evil scheme. :)


At any rate, despite lost license plates, lost lugnuts (more on that later I'm sure), lost sanity, and more than one conversation that ended with 'because I'm the mom and I said so'. In general, it's been a pretty good trip. We start leg #2 tomorrow and head back toward home. I'll hopefully be home on the evening of June 9th. I will have a full update posted within a few days of that I'm sure.

So, let me just say, support your local public library. You never know when some internet addict is going to need to get a quick fix. Seriously, it's worse than needing a Starbucks.
