No better place to prepare for a road trip than home sweet home. Laundry's drying... mixed tapes have been transferred to CD... plenty of snacks packed for the road... and the chance to use Mom's far superior PC to update whirlygirl. Such a dream.
Plus the family dropped by and we all had our usual shouting match: the good kind of shouting when stories that have been told 1000 times before are told again to the same gleeful reaction as the very first time. Mom and Dad are currently recovering in the living room. Per usual, Mom concluded the evening by saying, "My ears hurt."
Mine, too. But a warm, satisfied, feel-good hurt.
