Philly here I come....
I'm hitting the road {Jack} today and driving down to Philadelphia for dinner, then back again because I only have a babysitter for today. The 12-hours- of-driving-in-one-day is completely worth it because I'm seeing my brother off on his Peace Corps adventure. Yay, Chris!
I must be a little worried about the drive, though, because last night I had all varieties of dreams about it, including a snowstorm (um, unconscious psyche, remember it's July?), a van full of marching band instruments, a mini-scene where the carpet in the car disturbingly changed into spaghetti-like shreds, and a repeated thing where there's suddenly something in the road and I swerve to miss it and jerk awake.
Mmmm. Nothing like a good, restful night before a long drive. Happy Monday!

I'd say just watch out for those deer that are freakishly attracted to your vehicles. Have a great trip!
Hi Annie
Emily Musso here. I learned of your blog from Christie and check it often although I can't remember if I've commented before, sorry. Anyway, just wanted to tell you how much I enjoy your writing. Some of my favorite posts are your 4th of July post and the one about your new couch! Also, (sorry this is dragging on)I enjoy your reading list--I'm currently reading Stegner's The Gathering of Zion and wanted to pass on it is a wonderful read if you haven't read it yet. Thanks for the great reading you provide!
Hi Annie, How'd the trip go? I once drove up to Philly and back from Charlottesville all in one day for a wedding. I thought it would never end.
Hi Frank! Yeah...it was looooong. I thought I was going to be fine when I dropped Nancy off in Brooklyn but it was a chore to haul all the way back. About two hours away from home, I looked long and hard at the courtyard marriot sign but decided to continue. Thanks for your comment. How are things?
Hi Emily--so great to see your name here. And thanks for your comment. I'll have to look up The Gathering of Zion, anything Stegner and I'm there.
Keep in touch!
Glad to hear I am not the only one with freakish dreams due to anxiety. Have fun on your trip!
