Meghan's Travels

Today was pretty tiring. After church and lunch, Tom and I went to Athens. I guess now is the time to mention that every time I went somewhere today, I drove. I just want to make that clear before I continue. Ok, so I drove to church and back, then to Athens. Tom was sweet enough to help me pack up some clothes to take to my apartment and help me unload it there. He then hung out and played guitar while I unloaded all of the clothes to their appropriate spots in my room.

After a quick stop by Marble Slab for some milkshakes...which ended up being supper....We headed out to Tech. YES. You heard that correctly. I DROVE TO ATLANTA. Not just sort of on I-85 for a minute till the first exit like before when I went to the mall with Melissa, but all the way to Tom's apartment. I was so freaked out, I almost cried at one point. I had clinched my teeth so much on the ride that I had a headache when I got to the house. Now, some of you may think this is a bit hyped up. I mean it's just a drive to Atlanta. No big deal, right? WRONG. I NEVER EVER drive in Atl, so it is really scary for me. I almost cried at one point because I was worrying, but I pulled it together. Tom sort of chilled me out by coaching me through the whole thing- telling me what exits to use and when to get over in lanes. I honestly wouldn't have wanted to ride into Atl for the first time like that with anyone else. I was so nervous, and he was a lifesaver. I think if we wrecked, I might have pulled the steering wheel clear out of the car because I was holding it so tightly. After we put a poster and some speakers into his room, Tom and I headed back to my house to get his car. So yeah, more Atl driving. Once I got on I-20 I was cool, but prior to that had me nervous.

After we went inside to tell everyone where we were headed, Tom and I went to his house and hung out with Henry, Will, and eventually Ben when he got home from Lacey's house. Tom and I schooled the guys on some mario kart, as usual. *wink* =)> Today is Lacey's bday, so happy 16th to you Lacey!! I love you girl.

I also didn't realize this till it was a bit late, but Jessica Smith's bday was the 31st (yesterday) and I totally forgot to call her. Happy Belated Bday to you- all 21 years of you! I can't wait to spend time with you and Ben in Athens again! I miss it so much!! =)

Well, I am finishing up in my room- there are a gazzilion hangers on the floor and I think that is going to drive me insane trying to sort them all out. They are all hooked together. AUGH!!! I think I might sleep for now and try to worry about the hangers in the morning.

Goodnight!
