I got my car and so far I love it! It probably hates me though for getting it all dirty and making it work so hard for so long yesterday. :b I’ll have to try and get my pictures that I took of it up on the site soon. Just a few more kinks to work out and I should be able to display all of the pictures that I’m taking with my new digital camera!
This past weekend was fun. Friday ended up being a long night of driving back to Cincinnati. We eventually got in at 4 AM Cincy time. Saturday, we picked up the car in the morning, and visited with both my family and Kim’s family. I wish I had more time for visiting on this trip, but soon enough I had to head up to Dayton. I stopped up at my brother’s place for the first time this year. Hopefully I make it back there soon for a weekend, so I can party with them. After a visit there I made it over to Sarnovsky’s place. We worked on the compilation and had a great time.
The drive home yesterday was awful. Kim started off driving because I was still exhausted from the previous night. We slid down a road near the highway trying to pull into a gas station. After a little bit of time on the highway, Kim decided she didn’t want to drive anymore. We talked about just turning around and going back, but I drove a little further and the roads kept getting better and better. We ended up driving until just after midnight last night and stopped in Columbia, MO for the night. We slept a few hours and then got on our way so that we could make it into work today. I finally was at work at 10 AM. We were on the road for almost 14 hours, which is 5 hours longer than the trip usually takes. We saw at least 37 cars that had slid off the highway and into ditches, trees, other cars, etc. There were even 3 semis that had done the same thing. We are back in Kansas City though, and my new car made it safely!
