Heigh ho, heigh ho.. it's off to Reno I go, To meet the mom, and try to stay calm. heigh ho, heigh ho, heigh ho

Short blogger-log today. So, bought the car last night! Woot! Made it home without getting a speeding ticket, Double Woot! A 6 speed is going to get me in trouble I do believe. I mean, I of course NEVER speed.. who does that? I always go nice and slow. 10 to 15 under the speed limit..really. That's me. Okay maybe not. But I will have to keep an eye on my speed more than I used to. Partially cause my old little car couldn't really go much over 75 and partially cause the new car is just a lot of fun to drive so I kind of get caught up more in how much fun I am having and pay less attention to those white rectangle things with numbers written on them warning me that I have to pay money when I don't take their information into account. Meh...

Speaking of driving, tonight the pink panther and I leave for Reno to visit Momsy. We are leaving after he gets off of work and we'll get about half way before stopping over at a hotel. Then tomorrow morning we'll make the rest of the drive. I'm well prepared with tons of notecards to memorize and lots of bad music to listen to. Actually I like road trips so the time will probably go too fast for my liking. I'm nervous but excited to meet the woman I have heard so much about. Hopefully she'll like me and I'll manage not to be my normal clumsy, semi retarded self. If I drive fast enough do you think I can leave that part of myself in the dust in CO and instead be a suave, smooth, and intelligent person? It would be a refreshing change from the typical sara we all know and tolerate, kind of like you love a dumb puppy that walks into walls.... I wish I was able to stay longer than just the weekend though. Silly school getting in the way of real life. But it should be a lot of fun, apparently one of the big pass times are social meals and everyone knows me and food.. mmm food. Happy sara. Plus I just like getting out of town for awhile. I have that travel bug I can't seem to get rid of. *cough cough..must... cough... go to some place tropical..cough cough... with coconuts and volcanoes.

So I'm off to pack and sooth my bruised ego that resulted from the DMV. I think that frozen fruit chiller will do the trick. I would tell you about the DMV but it's not that exciting, they just kept skipping my number and I felt like the ugly step-sister with no prince to tell me that I was beautiful and DID deserve to register my new car. By the way have you ever noticed how everyone's ability to operate a vehicle decreases by about 50% when they are in the general vicinity of a DMV? I saw two almost accidents before I even got out of the parking lot. Yikes and Ahhh!

Ps. I have the dwarfs song from snow white stuck in my head now.... "we dig, dig, dig,....." concluded by "heigh ho, heigh ho.. it's home from work we go... " in case you wanted it stuck in your heads too.
