this year as in the past one of the things I am most grateful for would have to be my friends. Especially Dawnia. You see I have to fly into a city 2 hours away from my family, and she is always kind enough to pick me up if I give her good notice. It's a pretty drive and it usually gives us a good 4 to 5 hours of catching up time. I know the drive is only 2 , but many a strange thing can happen on Mont Eagle Mtn, and when it does, it usually happens to us. Nonetheless, I am grateful.
so this year I have decided to hitch a ride back to the airport with family, so as not to put the friends out so much on their holidays, (I know they have crazy families they can't wait to go be awkward around as well). It should be interesting. I will be as of now driven back by the 2 sister-in-laws. They like to ask questions, so I am afeard. I hate trying to explain my need to leave Chattanooga. My entire family are born, breed, and stuck in small town life. Now in a perfect world I wouldn't mind being stuck in the surroundings of small town life, but my head and heart just can't bend to small town ways anymore. I am the square peg. So on that note, I am thankful for my family, I love them dearly, but man the distance is sweet...

What day do you have to head back to the airport? If I'm off, I can get a brake job and drive ya myself to save you from the "family".
..sigh...makes me realize that I need to get a move on in preparing for having my own family to invade my house Thanksgiving day despite that I'll be working and they'll be here without me...go figure.
thanks for the offer, but now i think it has turned into a little adventure for them, they are all excited to get out of the big city of soddy. i will be in for a week in dec, we have to get together then!
Let me know when you'll be here in Dec...I'll probably only have one day off by then, but if you don't mind my being half dead, we can still have fun. I have a miscellaneous plant-form out front that I'd like you to identify. :) I don't think it's a weed, but even if it is, I think it's pretty and will keep it anyways ...sorta bushy and if you brush against it, it's herbish smelling....I just wanna know it's name.
i'll be there dec 24 - 28 :)
