Stop barking, we're almost home...

My three week road-trip ends tonight. The first couple of weeks were incredible. Several days into Austin, TX, however, my euphoria subsided. It was there that my father-in-law cornered me, pressing me for details as to my "career" path. Hahahahahahaha...just picture that one. I listened to myself mumble a bunch of nonsense, and got thoroughly depressed in the process. FIL and MIL spent the remainder of the week stuffing me full of amazing Chinese food. *****BURP***** Good dim-sum cheers me up every time.
I dunno about Austin. It feels like a giant sprawling suburb. Oh yeah, and it's oven hot. For real man, my brains got roasted. (Probably why I was mumbling nonsense to my in-laws.) On the plus side, Austin has more concerts on any given week than Pittsburgh will host in a year. How all those artists can feel so damn creative while roasting in a land of endless strip malls, well, it's beyond me really.
I miss my bed and my dog. Stupid animal. Just a few more hours...
