Yellow is the new Clarke

[listersgirl]

I think I'm the last person to check in after our weekend Adventure (something as crazy as that deserves random capitalization, yo), so let me just say evil bitch Mapquest apparently *wants* us to speed, West Virginia is gorgeous in the fall, I can't believe I had to kill Xander, candy is god, Whole Foods salad bars make me unbelievably happy, and I think the natural brainwashing that happens to women who go through labour (the one that allows them to forget everything so that they actually want to have children again) happens to people after road trips too.

Most importantly, though, I'm so happy I got to meet/see again/spend 30-odd hours in a car with each of the wonderful women who were there in North Carolina (goovie, sensational, kristinkay, meganberrieh, caffeinediary, borrowedwings, starfishchick, sallym, and idella). My Scary Internet People are not scary at all; rather, you're fun, silly, clever, beautiful, and wonderful, and I wish I could have spent more time with each of you.

So. Where are we going this weekend?

I'm thinking either Thunder Bay or maybe Arkansas? Let's hope we run into our best friends, Mensa, Chevrolet, Break-y, and Greeny along the way!

Dude. Don't forget New Hampshire. And Mrcle.

*nods with chin* Call me!

[listersgirl]

Oh, Chevrolet. One day you, too, will be able to go in the same direction as your turn signal.

Well if you DO go somewhere this weekend, can I come? because, *whiiiine*. ;)

[listersgirl]

Don't worry, I won't leave you alone again. I wouldn't want the brain to start dressing you in clothes with holes in them and orange shirts just to keep you company. :)

[sarcasma.livejournal.com]

That would be good, because the world doesn't need me wearing orange.

ha! Driving adventures on the way back too.

I and Mr Fork! miss you all very much.

[listersgirl]

It should have been longer. Definitely.

[kristinkay.livejournal.com]

And margaritas, duh!!!

[listersgirl]

Mmmm, beaches and margaritas. When are we leaving?

[borrowedwings.livejournal.com]

Don't know about you, but I'm going to DC! If you can make it down to Tennessee/North Carolina in time, you can catch a ride! ;)

I miss yooooooouu

[listersgirl]

Oh FINE. Go off and have adventures without me. :)

[listersgirl]

I was just whining to Steph about how much I'd like to come out to Seattle and stalk meet all of you who live there. Maybe next time I go to see my parents?

let me just say evil bitch Mapquest apparently *wants* us to speed

MAPQUEST IS TEH EVIL.

[listersgirl]

And yet, I keep going back to it. I need an intervention. *weeps*

"West Virginia is gorgeous in the fall" WORD. I just about died of the pretty on my trip there last week.

"Whole Foods salad bars make me unbelievably happy"

You and me both. Haven't been to one since the last time I was in North Carolina. Which was something like 7 or 8 years ago.

And considering they have them in Maryland too... that's just sad.

And the amazing thing is that it still managed to be gorgeous even though we hit it after at least 6 hours of driving.
