Blind Guardian---"A Night at the Opera"
So I take a week off and it seems like it caused a problem with the grand poobah of this site.
Maybe it's my fault. I thought something wild and woolly would happen during our 36 hour road trip, but nothing
did. Considering we went through Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Colorado, Nebraska, Iowa, Indiana and Michigan something
should have happened and I really don't believe that even though I did see some grey, furless creature feeding
on something on the side of the road at 2 am that anything amazing happened.
Maybe this creature was one of those state myths like the Stump Creatures in New Jersey, or the killer Albino Colony
in Nebraska and I was lucky enough to spot it and that should make me a hero or a few bucks since I saw it and
have lived to tell about it.
Yet it could have only been a simple hallucination since this happened after we had been on the road for 30 hours.
I highly doubt this though since I had the Mountain Dew and enough nicotine floating around in my system to bring
a dead person back to life.
However, I made the mistake of telling Connie what I had seen and my driving privileges we revoked. She stated
something about me falling asleep at the wheel and she wasn't going to die on some back road in Michigan because
of some idiot who was too stupid to realize when enough was enough.
We also visited a lot of rest stops which was cool. The ones in Nebraska sucked the most since some inbred idiot
came up with the idea that only hot water should come out of the faucets in the rest rooms. 90 degrees outside
and I had the pleasure of splashing 100 degree water on my face.
Thanks Nebraska!!
Graffiti has been cut down above the urinals. I only spotted one offer of oral sex and someone had included the
oral sex supplier's cell phone number. So simple, yet so high tech. What a wonderful age we live in.
COMING NEXT: What's so
big about a hot air balloon trip?
