I’m fully decompressed from the roadtrip with @sharpie33 and have a few reflections and thoughts:

• It will be a LONG while before my butt sits in my car for more than 40 minutes continuously
• sand is nice
• getting hit by a Frisbee hurts
• Fatburger is quite possibly the best burger joint in the world
• You know who your real friends are after 300 miles
• Ashley Tisdale’s version of “Last Christmas” is the second best version and makes a great road trip song

So now what? I am cleaning out my closet and sending all my eBay swag to @powersellingmom , I know she’d love the items as much as I did when I received them. I’m not throwing anything away, if anything, I’m paying it forward for re-use.

I’m heading to Phoenix in a few weeks to see my friends at Jimmie Johnson Racing, in addition some of my oldest friends and my Grandmother. I feel lucky to have this time off, even though it came due to a layoff. I’m getting to do things that I had no time for while still employed. I am commiting to continuing this even post “new job”, whenever and wherever that maybe.
