ON THE CRAZY ROADS AGAIN..........

I had planed to leave my apt on friday morning at 4 am for the thanksgving break now i know what most of are you thinking.... Marge are freaking nuts??????? yes i am.... many reasons on why for this one being its an 8 hr drive and i was driving alone and i wanted to get home before all the crazy texas kids get on the roads back home since they get the whole week off and i wanted to get through austin before all the KU fans got there for the game tonight well i couldnt sleep thursday night at all my gut,brain , and mind are all to thank for this b/c they wouldnt shut off and kept me up so insted i left at 3 am and yes i did this with no sleep and it was raining i was making great time and i make it to pauls valley about 4:15 am like i said not too bad so i pull over for the first of many things to make this unlike any other besides the whole me driving 8 hrs alone i got really sick ( normal for me before i take a trip like this b/c of nervs) never on the trip so i stop in PVS and take of sickness feel fine try to nap for like 30 mins didnt happen plus i discover i leave pillow and buck/teddy in okc ( stuffed animals i have to have to sleep) and makes things even worse plus everyone else had pulled off b/c of rain than get back on raod at 5 am and make it to Gains villes about 545-6 am make it through most of gainsville before i have to pull over again b/c of sickness this time i throw up in pillow case in car didnt want out in pouring rain at night all alone... state trooper pulls off lights on and all and comes to my window while im throwing up and stats to me " miss i noticed your driving alone and i know your not drunk so i thought i make sure your okay" me completly embrased said yes sir im fine just a little sick... he said " okay then ill stay here in my car in case you need me and leave when u get back on the high way" me okay thank you... get back on the road again... make it through most of ft.worth in traffic but only 2 wrecks to deal with and a little rushour not bad i hear the dallas side which had about 50 wrecks and I35 shut down both ways at one point so glad i went through ft.worth stop just south of ft.worth for gas, drinkage and throw trash and pillow case away back on the road again... hit austin about 11:15 am well doing good until hit more traffic at one point they had to close the access road south bound and forcing all of us on the 35 to move into 2 lanes b/c of a fire where at one point we were parked yes parked our cars and watched the fire fighters put out the fire and watch the building collapse and watch as ems,other fighters and other cops go work like 30 more wrecks...... on top of the fire finally we get moving again yay and i make it through until i get close to where my friend had a wreck and i said God your not taking me here like you took my friend and i was okay yay and then i finallly make it home at 1 pm my 8 hr drive became a 10 hr drive with no sleep..... thank God for rain b/c if it hadnt been raining i dont think id would have surrived the trip
