None of this trip happened as planned.
Keith has pretty much been staying away from the house since we broke up. I didn't hear from him and he wouldn't answer my calls. I was starting to get nervous Tuesday morning when it was already 10 am and he stil hadn't come home. I had a feeling he was going to back out on me and I was right. He showed up and said he had a doctors appointment. He asked me if I still wanted him to drive me to Houston. Of course I did.
Besides, he had already promised me he would. But low and behold he found a way to create fight and decided that he wasn't going to take me at all. I panicked. I had never driven more than 3 hours in any direction. I was scared to death to travel 16 hours to Houston all by myself. Well, I threw all of my shit in my car and went. The MapQuest diections were wrong. I got a far as Baton Rouge and then the directions printed led me to drive all the way around Mississippi before I realised something was wrong. I lost almost 3 hours and a tank and a half off gas. I was hysterical. The lady at the welcom center gave me the correct directions and I arrived in Houston 6 hours later. A 16hr trip took me more than 24. I am getting ready to go through all of the stuff I pulled out of my storage unit and figure out what I can get to fit in my tiny ass Pontiac Sunfire. I am not looking forward to the drive back. Tomorrow morning I leave to come back home, or what's left of it.
