Yes. It is true. I will be leaving for Arizona tomorrow. How insane. Those of you who know me well, know this... that I am an ice queen. I can't stand the heat! I wilt. I melt. I wither. I fall into a lethargic sun coma. I can be found crawling into ice cream coolers in gas stations.
We will be departing from Georgetown in the afternoon. I get off work at 2 pm. We are going to stop in Grand Junction and visit with my dear friend Brandon, who I am very excited to see. I have yet to visit him in his habitat and I very much look forward to checkin out his bachelor pad! After that it's off to Utah. We will head south from there, probably finding a nice spot to park and sleep in the Elephant (my Honda Element's nickname). We plan on stopping to visit a friend in Phoenix and then we will be driving down to Tucson. I'm nervous! I want Quinn's family to adore me.... I don't think I've been this nervous about meeting anyone, ever! It's strange.
I am finding it hard to concentrate here at work today. I can feel the wind in my hair now... the open road and the smell of the wild. Quinn and I have been blessed with spending alot of time together already, but having the chance to go on a roadtrip is wickedly dreamy. I can't get enough of the man! Never before in my life have I connected to someone in this way. It's beautiful, as if the stars and heavens aligned to bring us together. He is so very intelligent. The conversations we have leave me stimulated and searching for more knowledge. I love that feeling. I find myself constantly motivated to seek out new things together. I can't begin to express my gratitude to have found love like this. Poets and Troubador's would find our story, our energy, our vibration intoxicatingly inspirational.
I hope I don't get eaten by a brain sucking beetle.... they have those in Arizona you know. Its a terrifying place. Thankfully, I will have my great protector with me (and an epi-pen) I hear there are killer bees there. EEEEK!
