• The trip to my parents’ house is much longer with a 1-hour stop at Old Navy.
• I should never be turned loose at Old Navy when they are having massive clearance sales.
• Indiana’s new interstate speed limit goes a long way towards making up lost time.
• Traveling during bedtime does not necessarily indicate that my girls will actually sleep in the car—even when naps are skipped to improve this possibility.
• Skipping naps? So not a good idea. Ever.
• Someone who loathes remixes should never listen to Club Mix Hour on the radio—unless, of course, the only other options are country music stations.
• I grew up in the one of the biggest redneck, hicktowns in America. This has nothing to do with my trip, other than I am reminded when I spend more than 5 minutes in my hometown.
