Yup, I’m trying this post for no other reason that the fact that I can. But what makes it fun is that I’m posting from Gallup, NM… on my own computer… in an Econo Lodge. Isn’t that great? Ok, so the background story isn’t as pleasant as it may at first sound. Yesterday I started my trip home from CA :-(. Going home may seem like a cool thing but when it involves leaving Beth again after spending a month with her, and after a year of long distance before that, is just NOT fun. I really will enjoy being back with my family, and there are fun times ahead at family camp, but for now… yeah, leaving stinks! *sigh* now back to the original story. So, I was driving home and decided to stop for the night in Gallup and lo and behold the motel advertised “free broadband internet.” So, being as I had my (desktop) computer with me I decided to take advantage of the offer. Yeah, it did feel kinda awkward carrying my 19″ monitor through the hotel lobby, but in the end it was well worth the effort. Ok, enough ranting for now. Keep smiling Beth, ok? Once I get home I’ll do my best to get some photos up from my time in CA and out east this summer.
