To be off the road. D and I spent the last four days making our tri-state holiday tour. 794 miles all told. Mostly in the rain. But it was good seeing everyone.

Out last leg of the trip involved taking D’s nephew back to IU in Bloomington. To help the hours pass I took our Guitar Hero addiction to the next level. I spent Saturday in South Bend pimping my ride. Not only is the width of the ‘tek handy for hauling 4×8 sheets of lumber, but it’s also handy for dueling axe battles in the back seat.

Lastly, a blast from turkey day past:

Psolaris hit me with a tag, so I gotta play along. Six random facts about myself coming right up:

1. Ohio State was one of the last schools to cross my mind when filling out college applications.
2. I also applied to Michigan. (Ug, I feel dirty, but in my defense I went to a high school in Michigan so it was really standard operating procedure if you had decent grades).
3. I used to be addicted to collecting basketball cards (ya know, sports trading cards). This was not during childhood, but the years following college. We have boxes of them in the closet!
4. My senior project in high school English class consisted of a recording of an original song accompanied by a written analysis of the composition and the writing process. A little unusual, yes, but my hippie teacher didn’t mind.
5. I can’t handle heights. Donna must get on the roof whenever something must be done up there.
6. The Go-Go’s will always be one of my favorite bands.

Now then, not enough of my chaps are bloggers, so I’ll tag the couple I can. Come on, six facts, the more irrational, the better.
