(A couple of Fri's ago my friend Mike had set up a get together at my house only to back out at the last moment. I already had gotten my place cleaned and restocked my frig. So after numerous hard days of work, cheers to myself for surviving.)
I tried my best to convince myself my trip to Rhode Island was going to be a mini vacation. I was flying in on one day and going to spend time with my sister on the next and finally make it home in the early hours Sat morning. If you cut out the middle part that is exactly what happened. The good news is that i finally know how long i can drive by myself which is 11+ hours, but that doesn't change the fact that it was a brutal trip. I have to give my sister Courtney a huge hand for staying up with me the entire trip and keeping me company. She did a fantastic job of doing so. I can't tell if it was worst being stuck in New York & New Jersey traffic for hours or listening to her Ipod r&b playlist. Off hand i would say Courtney's playlist because not only did she tell me the meaning behind each song. I also had time to reflect on my own personal choices when it came to dating. I found myself thinking "oh, this song brings back memories" or "this song reminds me of why i can't stand her." Often i can get a grapefruit personality that i have to find a way to snap out of it. So in the night air when there were few lights outside of cars and gas stations one small emotional bump could have brought it all crumbling down.
