going to visit granny
back when i was hitchhiking from flagstaff, arizona to albuquerque, n.m, i made a sign to hold up that "albuquerque to visit my grandma." this time i have a car, and barring incident, tomorrow evening i'll be rejoicing in the company of granny. had a bid of a decision dilemma, but my brother steve, who turns 21 in three days (how surreal is that ?) and shannen encouraged me to go for it, specially since i'm so close. the drive back will be rough, albuquerque to reno in two days is what i'm shooting for, we'll see if that pans out. no tickets yet (knock on wood cross fingers other good luck charms), plus haven't used the air conditioner at all, they weird me out. read some edward abbey today, got me excited to look out over the desert as i zoom past. i'll be sure to stop every once in a while and breath the air a bit.
wanna send a big thanks to andy, josh, patrick, zaliah, leo and everyone else i've met here for hosting me (i know i'm missing some names, sorry about that). i plan on trying to go with these guys to the WTO meeting in cancun, then come back and kick it in tucson a bit when it isn't 105 in the middle of the day. you guys are welcome in reno as well, come on up.
alright, gonna go get a good night's sleep. getting excited to see granny tomorrow. excellent.
