HUGE shoutouts to Xyless, Ripple, Wafles and Arty for making the trip. I had a blast, the trip was incredibly fun, and I would do it all over again if I could. Thank you very much for sharing the driving, paying gas money, riding with everyone in a cramped-*** back seat, etc. with little to no complaints. Some of my highlights:
--Arty's Rock Paper Scissors skills. This man is the champ, seriously. Beating Wafles 10 times in a row, winning quarters on end. He has a bright future ahead of him.
--Ripple NEARLY taking the wrong exits on the highway...TWICE in the same city. I swear we were going to crash. That, and going 65mph on a 30mph turn...wow, just wow.
--Wafles having to drive in the rain. As soon as it was his turn, it started pouring and we got stuck behind a truck on a one lane highway due to construction. When his turn was over, it stopped raining...odd.
--Arty telling Wafles to pass the truck we were stuck behind, vision impared by rain and water spraying from the truck, when moments later a car it's headlights off comes zooming in the other lane. I think Arty wanted us to all die or something.
--Xyless for driving while sleeping with his eyes open. I was there. He actually did it. Too good my friend!
--The guy in the black car. We were driving next to him for awhile, then I took a nap. I woke up, AND HE WAS STILL NEXT TO US. I swear that man was driving at our side for 2+ hours. We lost him when we had to drop off Ripple in Springfield...was such a shame.
--Sheila. The GPS. Good as always. On one occasion, she pronounced one of the exits as "Nerfartehblahrpor..." gibberish, in other words. It was too good...
--My car. Everyone loves my awesome car. It can go zero to sixty in 20 seconds. No joke, it's THAT good. You could floor the gas pedal going up a hill, and STILL be slowing down.
--And of course, the tournament. Not much to say, other than it was pretty bad***.
I'm probably forgetting a lot, but you get the idea. Road trips are fun!!
