Road Trip News
By: Andrea Menzies
I had a good week returning to work at Manchester High School. For teacher work the school year is hitting full swing.
Yes I do still work full time as a teacher. I may look pretty relaxed in the summer, but I do still return to work in the fall.
I picked Anne up from the airport this weekend after her month long trip to California. It was her brother Jim’s birthday, and I am glad she saw the party.
Lesson of the Week: it is please don’t wait until there is an emergency to let friends know that you care. People most need love when they are least lovable some days. If you ridicule someone for dramatically seeking help someone watching may not want to get help themselves later-on. Years ago people harassed the crap out of me when I went to a therapist after a bad divorce, and then people ask why don’t people go to therapy?… Duh it is the harassment thing!
Happy Fourth Of July Week to all readers online. As a teacher I get many days off of have BBQ with family, but I hope all people have a great Summer festival day.
Sometimes I think I am the most homesick Texan ever, and then I Google the phrase and see stuff like this selling well. People from Texas hate leaving town, and the sales record shows it. I used to love to travel, but now that I have seen the sewage nightmare of Virginia I know places to live can be so much worse than Texas.
Every weekend I go out in Richmond, VA I am horrified and disgusted by how horrible people are on average compared to New Orleans and Austin where I lived for years. Last weekend I went out in Richmond and it was the most horrible night ever, and reminded me why I am always saving up for road trips far away. I hate Richmond, Virginia with all my soul. #Virginia Is For Nightmares
As I am not going on long road trips I am focusing on local concert road trips this summer break. Message me with recommendations. It is my new rule to only stay in my own vehicle or a hotel when traveling, and so I would like no house guest offers please.
I am super glad I cancelled my summer road trip plans. I was almost driving in this storm.
I am not leaving town this summer break. The friend that said I could stay on their sofa in New Orleans turned into a mega sewage bag, and demanded triple money and free car rides. My car broke down. Then my teaching job did not pay me for several days of work I did on my check. This made me cancel my visit. A fall visit in October would be a far better plan anyway, and would make my summer more restful. The friend and dating river is filled with manipulative sewage, and I am not playing that game. This is reason number one million I am fixing up a travel RV as “you can stay on my sofa” is often code for “I plan to rip you off” in travel conversations.
