Day One

Today, Tiffany and I left on our Super Ultimate Road Trip EXTRAVAGANZA!!!1 After a token amount of false starts, the trip was underway at about 9:40. We ate on the road and arrived in Midland, TX sometime about 5:45 pm. That is SO FREAKING LONG in the car. I find it unfortunate that Tiffany and I have different musical tastes.

Events:
-12:43--first exploded car sighted
-6:49--first arrest witnessed
-8:05--dust storm hits Midland, tornado watch issued

Because I am poor and have no job, I am being forced to undergo COFFEE DEPRIVATION during this trip. I'm down to one or two cups a DAY! A DAY!! I don't know which one of us will crack first, Tiffany or myself due to me being crazy without my maintenance dose. I DO have my super emergency stash of blackblack, courtesy of Brooks. (Thaaaanks Brooooks! <3 )

Mom tried to convince me to bring a machete with me on the trip...I did not see that ending well for any party involved. Instead, she made me bring a very small fire extinguisher....but not to put out fires....Oh no. It's to bludgeon people to death, if we have car trouble. ^^;

And DAD told Papaw that we would be bringing his gun with us on the trip. Even WORSE of an idea. I have no issue with firearms, and I am a fair shot, but....you can't bring guns into Canada. And you CERTAINLY should NOT lie and tell the Canadian border police that you "don't know how that got there" when referring to a GUN. My family.... Oy.

I'm dyeing my hair tonight! :) I'm pretty excited about it! Although, I will look retarded for about two days, while the excess red washes out, but it's all good. Nobody knows me in New Mexico. OMG! I might see a roadrunner! ^__^ I am plotting to try and catch a tumbleweed.

Tomorrow's Agenda:
1) eat free breakfast
2) steal breakfast foods for a snack later
3) Carlsbad Caverns
4) Roswell Alien Museum
5) drive to Alamogordo, NM to crash for the night
