I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Car trip snacks:

Baby carrots, Nilla wafers, dried mango, wheat thins, cashews.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Those sound good Tom-- I will have to try them. Hey, did you get an email from me the other day?

I tend to do cheese and crackers that I eat in lieu of a meal while filling my tank at the gas station. I'm kinda one of those get-there-quickly people. I don't really snack on car trips. Water, sure.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

did you get an email from me the other day?

Yeah, I'm just slacking.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

When I was a kid we always had Peppridge Farm Brussels in the car on long trips. It's especially awesome when they melt.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Goldfish crackers and mini-bottles of club soda. Oh, and yogurt-covered (or chocolate-covered) raisins if you want something sweet.

The mini-bottles of soda are my favorite car thing EVER.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Red Vines are the Way and the Light of car snack fooding. Anything else, feh.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Ack! Eating in moving cars!

Yes! Eating in moving cars! And, I set up food/water dishes for my cat and he eats in the car, too. I also set up his litter box and he uses that in the car, too.

Why don't you like to eat in cars?
