I'm heading west.

I plan on doing my part to help TB in it's diabolical plan of tipping the country over - I'm leaving to head to California today.

I'm going to be hanging out in Dallas for a couple of weeks, visiting my family and attending my little sister's wedding. After that, I'm to spend a few days in Albuquerque, visiting more family and hanging out on Indian reservations. Then it's off to San Francisco. I hope to be settled in San Francsico within the first week of October.

Follow me, Major! Last one to California is a rotten egg!

You're going to cause California to break off and sink into the Pacific!

By all means... GO FOR IT!!

That's where you belong, you freak. I say that as a compliment with much respect.

San Francisco's a great place. It's probably where I'd be if I had more money and less commitments here.

Ben, drive safe, have fun.

...and I know that like myself, you will also always understand the tune "Do You Know What It Means To Miss New Orleans"...

...I am still sad about not being there pretty much daily, but know that I will never go back to live...

Make it a safe trip, Ben. Hope Ike doesn't crowd the roads around Dallas too much for you.

Ben, I've got you covered for at least this weekend. I am flying to DC on Saturday to go see our Saints whip up on the Redskins on Sunday. I guess once I get back on Monday, Cali will officially break off!

Thanks for the well wishes, gentlemen. It appears your good vibes have positively affected my trip so far: I got 45 miles to the gallon in my 1991 Honda Civic with everything I own loaded into it, and the fast food I ate on the way didn't cause any adverse effects. Sweet.

Now... how to keep myself from going stir crazy in Dallas for three weeks?
