Day Two

day two, and roughly 11 hours of driving, is over. And I am officially amazed at how long I can sit and do nothing without going insane (or at least I think I'm still sane...?) I dont know, but to me, I feel like I shouldn't be watching a movie at 1 when its nice and sunny out, so I plugged in my earbuds to my computer and listened to cds (until my battery died and then i used my ipod)and looked out the window at the scenery going by. I watched as the forest-y hills got smaller and ended up nearly flat farmland growing corn, wheat, and idk what else. What I found funny was that most farms had random clumps of forest in them, just all flat but one little blob of trees... Oh well :P It was pretty disorienting how the weather changed as we drove by. We experineced: perfect blue clear skies, partially cloudy skies, fully cloudy skies, light rain, and thunderstorms (and not in that order either!) It was also weird when we switched to central time... Oh look, its 6---again. The couple times we stopped I felt the utmost dread at entering the car again. NOOOOO not AGAIN, not for a nother 8 HOURS!!! But really, it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Actually, one of the things that bothered me the lack of getting things done. I literally wasted the entire day doing absolutely nothing and getting nothing done. There's not much to get done in a car for 11 hours... Well, looking forward to hanging out a bit in chicago today before the 7 hour ride to nebraska, see you later ~cc
