Terrible stress headache and neck cricks from trying to figure it how I will get my stuff home, made worse by realizing my last paycheck will be mailed to me.

I think I have a plan though. I just hope I can cram every little nook and cranny of that pick up.

No trailer means I'm freeing up $250. That's an extra day if has and hotel. The no freeways trip may be doable!

Down side...I personally only have $800 for the trip with $430 coming AFTER I get home.

Parents are offering $800 as well...but I really hate leaning on them.

One of the bad about cross country tripping is what to see on the way. Sometimes you miss some really deep stuff simply because its not just on the side of the road, and takes more than five minutes.

That's great for museums and tourist traps...but the No Freeways route takes me to Laramie, WY. There's a Matthew Shepherd memorial on campus there I can't make because its too inconvenient.

And yet I can hit the cabin made of fossils. Feels kinda hollow....

You know, with all the talk of moving back to Texas, I really feel I need to give a shoutout to my other home....

Seriously...for all the pining I do for Texas, I do miss Pennsylvania. My five years in State College, PA made it the closest I've ever had to home outside of Texas. We only came back to Texas when my boyfriend and I realized that we were at the tops of our games in that town, and making almost no money.

I enjoyed it there, and felt as comfortable there as I did in Texas. And there are days I miss Central PA as much as I miss Central TX. But as much as I miss it there, sadly, it's changed so much, the town no longer feels like home. Especially after the Sandusky scandal.
