Bus is leaving…

We have decided to pull out for PA today.  Ali’s grandfather’s health has not been good recently so she wants to get up there as soon as possible to see him.  Last night we got most of the stuff together.  Even though the party van is massive, most of the space is used up for passengers, not cargo or luggage.  Plus we are going to have the rear seat down in bed form, further cutting down on space.  I will have to pile up some of the junk in front of one of the rear seats.  For entertainment I packed some magazines, dvd’s and my gameboy rig.  I am not sure how far we will get today.  Ideally one of us can nap while the other drives to allow us to go almost non-stop.  Worst case we can park somewhere and sleep.  I am expecting the 1203 miles to take between 19 and 22 hours to cover.

I am not taking our laptop and no I’m not bringing my Warcraft cd’s to install on my dad’s pc.  I will basically be unplugged for 7 or 8 days.  I don’t really think it will be all that hard.  Plus my characters will generate rested xp during that time anyway. 🙂

I’m sure there will be a million things along the way of the next 7 or 8 days that will be bloggable. I’m also sure that by the time I get a chance to blog again I will have forgotten half of them. 

I hope the Heat win the series.  I want them to win for both Shaq and Pat Riley.  Neither one of them have been able to win the big game after they left the Lakers.
