This week is by far the heaviest travel week of the year. Many hit roads or grab a flight to head "home" or the place that once was. This week I ended up staying put in NC and hung around with my roommate Lauren and boyfriend Carlos. We had a great time, did a little shopping and had a great dinner. Actually, if it was not for them, I would of ended up hanging out by myself. Not that I mind doing that once in a while, but it is so much nicer doing things with other people.

Well that gets me to the fact that in just over two weeks I will do my first Road Trip to Boston. Each trip I have taken to date back "home", I have flown, but since I will be there for the remainder of the year, it makes sense to bring the car.

Now for a trip that long, I best be prepared; and I will be. My iPod is rearing to go as I have been filling it up with some great music. Lets see, 16.5 hrs of driving with a average song of 4 minutes., hmmm... ok that means I will be able to listen to 247.5 songs.. Each way..

Actually, I like road trips and this one will be well planned with at least one stop on the way, likely to DC or New York. Both are favorites of mine.

That gets me to my final thought; since I will do this trip alone probably 2 times in the coming months, you can be sure a coffee will be in hand as I pass many of the 566 mile markers along the way.. Each way..
