A Week of Torture AKA Vacation with my mother

[OSUSprinks]

I can't believe it is October 30th. This month flew by me. Anyway, I wanted to let you all know that starting tomorrow I will gone with my mother for a week or so. I am driving to Scio, Ohio to pick her up tomorrow after work. Then Thursday we will drive to Dublin, VA. Friday we will continue on to North Carolina to see my little brother, sis-in-law, and new nephew. Assuming I don't kill my mother between now and the 8th (and believe me, that is not outside the realm of possibilities), I should be back online then. Between now and then, I don't know what my internet access will be. Know that I will be writing and thinking about all of you! I hope you all have awesome weeks.

Day one went well. I worked till 4:30, then drove the two hours to Columbus to have dinner with the Dancing Banana and Katie #1. That lasted over two hours, and they stopped seating the tables around us because we were too loud (this at a Texas Roadhouse where they blare country music and throw peanut shells on the ground). From there I drove just over two hours to my cousin Frank's apartment and crashed there. I haven't seen him since Mayleene was in Ohio, though we talk a lot, but it was good to catch up with him. Also it meant not staying with my mother.

Today we drove the 5ish hours to my aunt and uncle's place (Frank's mom and step-dad, the step-dad being my mom's brother) and went out to dinner with them. Then I came back here and sat at the computer working on NaNoWriMo. I am taking my first break because I have 700 words done, so I'm nearly half-way done, plus I needed to check the Thrusday night Football game score (Go Virginia Tech!). So today went well. We were only nearly hit 3 times, but I was able to save it each time, and there were no animals on the road. Now as long as we don't get hit by a tropical storm tomorrow, I think we'll be okay. lol
