So Close I Can Feel The Calm

the countdown has begun.  i am leaving in less than 7 days and can hardly wait.  the idea of getting in my car, rolling the windows down, and turning on the music - o and turning on the gps too - actually makes my body feel calm.  it has been forever since i took a road trip and i just love them.

i have been working hard to get all my assignments done so i won't have anything to do when i am on vacation.  thanks to the snow and missing one class, the school decided to extend that class into the week of break.  i spoke with the instructor telling him it was vital for me to have this break and what did i need to do to get things turned in.  i think i will be able to get it all done.  i have two papers due , and some minor posting, but think i can get them all done this next week, it means working on them each night till they are done though, or until i can't go anymore hehehe.  

last night, or rather this morning at 3, i woke up covered in sweat after having fallen asleep at 9.  somewhere between 9 and 3 i woke freezing and grabbed more blankets while turning on my space heater.  confused? me too, i'm still not feeling so well, but i think i broke a fever. strange how i get sick before a vacation - think it is because i am always working so hard to get to that vacation and i don't allow a day of rest somewhere in the ramming everything into place so i can keep a steady pace.  the past weeks i have been exhausted by 7, completely ready to crawl in bed and crash.  should have given in i tell you.  

all of this to get me to the point of driving in my car with the windows down and music cranked.  that is the best feeling there is.  i want to leave the tulsa skyline far behind and just drive.

i still need to get an oil change, balance tires - or at least check the air in them, get my pants hemmed, pick up my shoes that are being fixed, plus the homework.  then pack.  think that gets me caught up at least :).  

then drive lol, i think i already mentioned that though.
