I'm in Texas!

Current mood: tired

So, after an interminable drive, I arrived in Texas at 5:23 p.m. (California time). I know this because I called Chuy on my cell to announce this feat of vehicular stamina. I stopped off at Wendy's in Anthony, TX, the first town I encountered, to chow down on a Number 1 combo with cheese, no onions, no mayo. Grinned at the good ole boys in line in front of me. Yee-haw! I'm in Tayx-us!

Having such a great book on tape, One for the Money by Janet Evanovich, to keep me occupied helped enormously. What a great series! I'm in lust with Ranger and Morelli! Tomorrow, I will listen to Two for the Dough. Thanks are owed to Erika, who lent me the books, and to Kathy, Doreen's mom, who loaned me the books on CD.

Tonight, I stayed at the Ramada in El Paso. Took a nice bath. Found a lump in my right leg. Maybe this explains the pain I have off and on? I massaged it and fervently hoped that it wouldn't give me any trouble tomorrow.

Can you believe I'm only halfway to Dallas?
