Oh how happy I will be to drive away tomorrow.

Things to accomplish before I leave in approximately 24 hours:

- Get dressed
- Call Mer's school and say she'll be late
- Pay car note
- Pay water bill
- Take Mer for CT Scan Not fun.
- Pick up referral for Mer's GI specialist appt. (Crap! I forgot.) Will do on the way out of town.
- Work 8 hours (Shooting for 6 now) Got 7.5, close enough.
- Save files to my laptop hard drive so work can be accomplished while on trip, reducing the need for taking leave without pay
- Feed Mom's cat
- Leave extra key for pet sitter
- Mail rent check
- Leave deposit slip for James for his half of the rent
- Laundry
- Pack clothes & toiletries
- Put Cynthia's phone #s in my cell

Trip = relaxation. Trip preparation = stress. Bah.

I'm sure I've forgotten something, but I'd better get started.

ETA: And miles to go before I sleep...
ETA 2: A bit more progress. Laundry is in progress. Snacks are purchased, directions are in laptop case.

Tomorrow! Tomorrow! I love ya! Tomorrow! You're only a day away!

*cough* Sorry, yeah, musical moment over. Do you have directions to my house? And my number in your cell? EEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee must clean house again and do laundry and set up your bed and not freak out!

Omg, I know, my to-do list before leaving for spring break is dauntingly long. *hugs* Good luck getting everything done, and have a fantastic time with Mynuet and all.

Don't forget to wave as you drive past on 95!

[crazy-lil-loud1.livejournal.com]

You sure are forgetting 'something'

*packs her things*

Arg. Getting ready to leave on a trip almost negates the fun of going on the trip. :(

Annie was my first fandom! I totally wanted to be Pepper. Mostly because she was tough and I am a chicken. Note that this has not changed since I was 9.

TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-MORROW!

Mapquest (which I inevitably spell 'mapquestion' on the first try) has helped me out with directions. They are printed and sitting in my desk drawer with my purse.

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am excited like whoa. LIKE WHOA!

[mugglechump.livejournal.com]

Also, yes, your number is in my cell. And the Great MapQ says it will take me 10 hours and 12 minutes to reach your place. Is there a good time to call to tell you when to expect me (roughly)?

WOOT! Roadtrip! Don't forget to holler when passing North Carolina, either! :D I know y'all are gonna have SO much fun! Kiss my little fat-funky for me! He is SO precious! *grin*

We really do need to talk because I didn't know Mer needed these specific medical attentions... O.o . I have to finish going through everybody's journals, but when you get back I'm sure I will need re-assurance about her. *hugs her tight*

Be careful, honey...be safe! Have fun and ask God to get in the car with you! WOOT! *huggles tight*

[mugglechump.livejournal.com]

*hugs* Thanks, dear! Prep is always a bear. When do you leave for break? If I don't catch you before you go, have a great time! Take lots of pictures!

I'll even shout 'Hi Cyn!' as I drive under the Powhite Pkwy. That's my favorite road name ever, although someone recently told me you pronounce it Pow-i-tay, and not Po' White, which isn't nearly as funny.

[mugglechump.livejournal.com]

Thank you, dear! You take such good care of me!

[mugglechump.livejournal.com]

It's very true. Almost, but not quite.

[mugglechump.livejournal.com]

I'll wave frantically at the Chapel Hill exit. I wish I had time to swing through there, too! Next time.

Oh Meredith. She's got tummy issues. We've gotten to the point that she can eat eggs, bread, yogurt, and cheese, but her attempt at eating Swedish Fish yesterday didn't go well. *sigh* On the 12th we head to a GI specialist. She did not have a good time with the CT Scan today. Barium is nasty stuff, and Meredith had a heck of a time with the IV contrast. Syringes are not her friends. My poor baby.

Hee! God can be my co-pilot, but I'm not getting the bumper sticker! *huggles*

[heyurs.livejournal.com]

You know she means her silly little self...right? *grin* I love her to pieces! X)

[heyurs.livejournal.com]

aaaaww! The poor young'un chicken! :O!! I hate for things to be wrong with the stomach...ICK! Barium IS nasty! *shudders* I sure hope they can find whatever it is quickly and get her in tip-top shape again. Those are just icky feelings. *huggles her*

I'll be listening and waving!! :D!! wheeeeeeee!! You know God could care less about a bumper sticker! *tightgrinhuggles* *loveloveloves* X)

[mugglechump.livejournal.com]

Oh gosh. I can't believe I missed that!

Well, Emmie-boo, if you can get your skinny little behind to VA by tomorrow morning, you can come with me!

She is a cutie pie.

[mugglechump.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I hope they fix her up quickly, too. She's already lost several pounds - and she wasn't that big to start with!

*squiches*

We've gotten to the point that she can eat eggs, bread, yogurt, and cheese

What are things that contain bacteria?

[shady121.livejournal.com]

Oh! I thought you meant can NOT

[mugglechump.livejournal.com]

Actually, the doctor told her to eat yogurt for the bacteria.

It's more 'I'll take bland food for $200, Alex."

*grins*

[shady121.livejournal.com]

So is it the bacteria alreayd in her intestines that are causing harm to her? *Biology geek*

[mugglechump.livejournal.com]

The cause of her poorliness is as yet undetermined.

[heyurs.livejournal.com]

hehe! X)

[crazy-lil-loud1.livejournal.com]

Oh yes, well it was purely selfish. I was trying to make room so I could comfotably curl in a ball to go to Florida too.

[rainpuddle13.livejournal.com]

I'll be at work when you drive by. You'll be half a mile at best from the library.

And no one outside of Richmond knows how to pronounce the Powhite Parkway. It's pow-height

[heyurs.livejournal.com]

cuteness! X)

[castoffstarter.livejournal.com]

*pouts* Fine. Go have fun and frolick and drink too much and giggle too loudly and have a general fun time with. out. me. *pouts again for good measure*

Okay, okay, I'll stop whining. HAVE A BLAST CRAZY LADY! I hope you two go nuts. I want gads of pictures. OMG, you must do a voicepost! You and Myn together, wouldn't that be awesome?!

I shall miss you dearly. *huggles tight* Have a safe drive, Katie-bugs!

[mugglechump.livejournal.com]

Thank you, love! I'll talk to you soon!

*hugs*
