So, I'm in the back of my parent's car, on my Macbook, bluetooth'd to my Treo, getting power from an inverter.

I will be documenting my momentus journey from San Francisco to San Luis Obispo, CA. It's about 3 hours when I drive, 4 when my mother is driving.

Maybe cool shit will happen, maybe it wont. Maybe you guys will degrade into cox/dix LOL.

The Passport 8500 is engaged, we're traveling 70, and let the moblogging commence...

    No, this ride isn't really long. Here to Vegas, 12 hours, is long.

    But it's... longer.

    Or something.

    We're in traffic on interstate 880. Going to 101. Fucking Dixon Landing Road.

    depending on whether i have a job lined up / how much cash I have saved for the move, I might make some stops and drive a little out of the way to visit some people, if they can organize themselves so we can get lunch or something

    I don't really enjoy driving very much unless it's a road trip type situation but three hours is pretty tame...

    if that were possible i'd hit up ne canada so i could hang out with DaySleeper and Pony and Redeemer and all of them.

    This is my rough plan for the route since there are folks in California and Oregon I wanna hang with that are still sort of along the way, especially if I can time it for next years SDCC

    Update: My mom stayed on 880. Almost ended up in Santa Cruz.

    Back on track, now on 101. It's a straight shot now. Nothing new to report.

    God this is boring.

    I have done this very drive. It is one of the most boring drives I've ever done in my entire life, and I am not exaggerating at all.

    Prepare to be bored for a while longer.

    Nicole Richie used to be kinda cute but no she looks like every other boring sickly model type and is just icky now.

    Paris Hilton is a fart in a mittin.

    Let's see, Cleveland, OH to Costa Mesa, CA in 3 days alone, I flew back as I was driving a friend's car out there because he wanted to fly when he moved and I wanted to go to California.
    The CCST from Cleveland to Bellevue, WA in 2 days with one alternate driver, and two days back after PAX.
    Thirty-six hours without sleep on a round trip from Cleveland to New Jersey with stops in Jersey City, Hoboken and down to Red Bank earlier in the day (also with a lot of getting lost).
    Also back in 2001 I grabbed a couple friends and we drove from Cleveland to Indiana, up into Michigan and back to Cleveland for no reason.
