goddamned goddammned reality

insomina sucks donkey cock...my mind is racing a million miles an hour and im not tired, i have to be at school in 7 hours. hopefully i will be able to get 4 or so hours of sleep tonight. i did the math for the trip i want to take, i want to see a lot of stuff. i figured according to google maps that i will drive approximately 10,000 miles. greyhound is not an option. i figure that i can cut back on alcohol and other forms of entertainment, buy cheaper food, drive less, drink more water and such and save about 1000 bucks. I can sell magic cards and comics and get about 2500...that means that i will only have to magically come up with 3000 more dollars (if my parents cant help me with dads huge retirement settlement that is). so, if anyone wants to get me anything ever, give me cash, or best buy gift certificates that way i can hopefully get a cheap ass laptop to upload pics from my trip to the internet. here is my list of where i want to go:

1525 mi louisville, ky to las cruces
550 mi las cruces to grand canyon
250 mi grand canyon to las vegas
350 mi las vegas to san diego
150 mi san diego to tijuana to san diego
600 mi san diego to san francisco
600 mi san francisco to bend, or
200 mi bend, or to portland, or
500 mi portland, or to seattle, wa
150 mi seattle, wa to vancouver, bc, canada
600 mi vancouver, bc to calgary, alb, canada
1000 mi calgary, al to ontario or
550 mi ontario, or to bozeman, mt(yellowstone)
500 mi bozeman, mt to salt lake city, ut
550 mi salt lake city, ut to denver, co
425 mi denver, co to mt rushmore, sd
1200 mi mt rushmore to benton, ky
225 mi benton, ky to louisville

you will spend $2400 on gasoline
you will drive at least 175 miles a day
you will be gone for 2 months (60 days)
you will spend $1500 on food and beer
you will spend $600 on hotels
you will spend $100 on oil changes
you will spend $1000 on bullshit
you will need $500 just in case
realistically, this trip will cost you
$6100. christ fuck almighty. start saving

i plan on being back in louisville for my birthday with a huge beard and hair to my ass. i plan on raising a family of birds like peter griffin in the family guy. also, since ill have just been gone for 2 months and have covered a shitload of road, ill have amazing stories. so i will demand a party of the grandest scale...well, time to start eating less and saving money.

goodnight kids, im going to read some more chronicles of narnia in bed and hope i pass out.

also, i shall drink a beer before i do that because hops taste yummy
