so my primary mission has ended, but they've extended it for another 3 months. which is nice, because i don't think i'll be able to read livejournal if they turn off my connection.
i spent the last few days receiving a big new software update. they seem to believe everything i've been telling them, because they're planning to let me navigate autonomously a lot more. hahaha, suckers. of course, i'm still going to drive to the columbia hills like they want me to -- what else would i do around here? and they're probably only letting me drive because they don't want to deal with it. there are a lot of rocks in the way.
if you're interested,
here is a nice map showing where i've been and where i'm going. it's a long way to the hills...
