On the Road A-gay-an



Time to make the donuts! We're driving back to Oklahoma this evening to visit our families. While I'm excited to see them, I couldn't be more displeased that I must burn gallons and gallons of petrol to achieve that goal. I haven't driven in over a month, and I'm not looking forward to it. Car trips used to bore the shit out of me, now I don't know if I'll be able to take it. If we had an unlimited amount of time, we'd ride home.

"HA!" You say. "Mason, that's unreasonable, you could never do that." I beg to differ. We could ride 30 miles a day easily, 40 if we really pushed ourselves. If we had a month, (and trailers to carry the dogs) we would spend two weeks traveling and one week at home. State highways are [relatively] safe for cyclists, and the adventure alone would make the trip worth while. It's something to think about if I ever get a month off.

If someone would just give us $50,000 I could spend the next five years cycling America. Anyone looking to hand out cash?

No? I didn't think so.

Damn.

Dinner last night/breakfast at work this morning:

Chicken Seitan [meg is the fucking wiz with the gluten]
Sauteed Cabbage in Vinagrette
Mushroom Gravy [i'm a vegan saucier, and i'm not ashamed to say it]
Rice
