Made it back
8 years ago
【Ｔｈｅ Ｂａｅｓ】
Still not fully back to normal yet, however we made it home safely.
It was a crazy trip home lemme tell ya!
We got to bed way later than we thought because the desks and PCs and all the mice and cords and keyboards and stuff took a lot longer to pack than we thought. I didn't fall asleep until about 4am because I was nervous. We woke up at like 7:30, Uzziah grabbed some quick breakfast, and we loaded the truck, and the boys got breakfast while I finished it up. I joined up with them, then Uzzie and I got on the road right after some sad goodbyes.
The drive started out totally fine, we were happy, it was a comfy UHaul, It was a gorgeous day, the mountains were beautiful on the way out, and we were both excited to do this whole 2,000+ mile trip together as a couple. It was totally fine, listening to music, singing and nerding out, making jokes, and counting other Uhauls we saw along the way.
We drove about 11 hours of the 28 we needed to that first night. We pulled over at a truck stop, bought gas, and the lady told us we could park and sleep in the Uhaul there if we wanted to since she didn't care. Super chill! Well I get all settled down in it, and Uzzie tries his best, I'm about to fall asleep when he tells me he can't sleep because he's not cuddling me. So we roll over next door to this motel and hop in, it was super shady and in backwoods ass Nebraska. But it was part of the experience, and we got a good nights sleep.
We woke up early the next morning and returned the key, then took off again. Everything was again totally fine, there were some shitty bouts of traffic along the way, but nothing bad. We made it from Nebraska to south of Chicago, when we ran into trouble. There was LOADS of construction, and it was getting dark. The construction was so bad part of the highway was closed I guess, and we had to take 3 different onramp/offramps to get off and go down some backwwods areas in the super dense fog. We finally got back on the highway on the other side of construction, and that's when the real fun happened.
It started raining, and getting worse and worse while we were driving into the storm. It was raining so bad by the end of it both of us were shaking from anxiety, we literally couldn't see the road at all, the only way we knew we were on the road was when we hit the rumble strips. So we took the nearest exit, and followed a light to a quality inn, and asked them if we could stay in their parkinglot till the storm was over, they told us no (such shitters) and told us that we had to stay in a room or get lost. So we asked fo their cheapest room and they told us the only one they had left was the king executive suite, we had to take it because we literally could not drive. So I was all anxious and shit about staying there but whatever. We got some good sleep, some good food, and then took off again. Made it home totally fine but had to drive in the rain almost the whole way back those last 6 hours.
Just spent yesterday and today unpacking and stuff like that.
So thats that, we're home now,having a grand old time seeing people I haven't seen in so long.
<3 still not fully back to normal business, but when I get there I'm gonna open for commissions full time until I get my new job! <3
