stormdog(This is from about two in the morning, but I couldn't get it to post.) Lisa and I just arrived at the Cox center in downtown Tulsa. We have our patient numbers and are settled into line. Fortunately, folks aware being allowed in the building to wait. I was ready to be outside, but am grateful I'm not.
I drive the whole twelve plus hours, either talking with Lisa or listening to podcasts and music. She may be the only person I'll ever road-trip with with whom I can sing along to Laurie Anderson.
This is kind of a crazy trip I suppose (though I posit that the system that forces this trip is the insane thing) but I really enjoyed the trip and I'm happy to be here. There's a pretty fundamental part of me that is made very happy simply by novelty. I'm somewhere new, and that's exciting. Though I'm also a bit loopy too, after that drive. On my walk back to the car too get Lisa's folding chair, I paused in the parking lot outside the convention center. "I'm in Oklahoma," I commented to no one in particular. "Why am I in Oklahoma?"
I feel like I had more to say, but I'm not sure what. Plus, it's kind of hard to type on my phone. I think I'll sit back on my yoga mat (Which I just happened to buy today for an unrelated purpose!) and rest a bit. Maybe do some reading in the reader Miriam lent me. If my brain is together enough.
