Or at least Ohio. So this last weekend saw a nice little trip to Cleveland Ohio. My friend Don is moving up there and needed some help from the guy with the truck. It was also a nice excuse to get away and road trip. It really has to say something about Don that would make me voluntarily venture into Ohio. Those of you who know me know my feelings about that state. Overall the trip was not bad, radioing back and forth between cars made for a fun drive. I know Don is looking forward to the house that they may be getting as it looked amazing. If they weren’t going to buy it I would be very tempted to. If only I could move the whole house.
While up down over where ever there we hit up the local Dave and Busters where Andrew was in video game heaven. I was a tad too tired to really enjoy it like I should. (The two Smirnoff’s didn’t help with that) so afterwards we headed back to Don’s temporary place and crashed out. You know, sometimes old duplexes can be drafty and scary! The next morning we drove back.
What is it about crappy redneck drivers in giant pickups that feel they need to screw up everyone else? On 66 we had an incident where this butt head in a full size Ford truck was pacing at 60mph with another truck so they were blocking both lanes. They wouldn’t let anyone pass and were sitting there laughing it up. I managed to work with Don and Position myself so that I could maneuver next to them and caught a break when a left hand merge brought in a car that forced the Ford to slow down. This gave me the chance to get in front and slow him down enough to allow the 12 cars he was harassing the chance to pass. Seeing what I did he thought he could get around me and then tried to run me off the road. Sadly he sucked at playing Chicken. Now there is a truck full of rednecks that are giving their driver a hard time because he let a Nissan Frontier get the better of him. (I know they were rednecks due to the Camo and Nascar caps they were all wearing, and I am not sure they had all their teeth, and trust me, I got close enough to see.)
Once I got home I had a billion things to do including laundry, putting away trip stuff, showering off all the Ohio, and grocery shopping. After all (most) of that was done, I had a visitor stop by to watch a movie and sit and talk for a while. (Temporary DVD player while the 360 is still out of commission). I won’t be going into any more details until much later, but suffice to say, things are looking up in the life and times of Steve.
