Prayers said: 252 Hail Mary’s within a 20 minute period of time when my car was running on fumes as I pleaded with God to make the next gas stop immediately migrate to be at the next available exit.
Bunnies inadvertantly run over: 2. Maybe 3. I cannot be held responsible for involuntary bunnyslaughter if the bunnies felt a compulsive need to fling themselves in blood sacrifice before my caffiene charged might driven car.
Dogs passed by the side of the road.. on a Benjie’esque journey to go home: 2 (So cute. A tiny grey terrier peaking out along railroad tracks to peer in at the cars of people stopped at an intersection. Hope he makes his way home. The other poor hound that I spotted an hour later, looked like he had been abandoned and needed new friends)
Overall distress on my car:
- More than effectively doubling the # of miles on my car since I left SF on January 6th.
- Totally needs a carwash, inside & out
- Some errant dallas neighbor scratches on the car that should be able to get bugged out
- The moonroof got more excercise this weekend thatn ever and is behaving a little snippety when driving & trying to close it.
Sweet Dreams: I think 1 solid very deep dream of pillows, besos, hugs, and giggles.
I am renewed.
Fricking exhausted.
But definitely renewed.
