Mmmm, my mental roadtrip is Fairbanks to Anchorage. 350 miles, 6 to 6.5 hours, 3 gas stations, 1 honkin' big mountain range. We must have made that trip once every two weeks or so in the summers after we got our drivers licenses, once just to see Much Ado About Nothing in the theater. This was, of course, back when gas was still hovering around $1 - $1.25/gallon.
Fire bad. Tree pretty.

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

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I dislike eating in the car, and I'm also not a fan of car trips long enough to require it.

Herding cats for fun
The last time I drove with a cat in the car and not in a cage, the cat insisted she had to be in the one place I wouldn't let her go - on the floor by my feet (and the gas and brake pedals).
In my experience this is a cat universal, except for the totally deaf one who liked to go on rides in the car. Somehow they understand it is the one place in the car you really don't want them to be, so they insist upon trying to wedge their bodies into that space.
We turned annoying into an art form.
Snerk.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

However, y'all made me go get Twizzlers.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
On the bus, I like popcorn and diet coke or sprite, but that's my go-to snack anywhere, any time.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Huh.
WASHINGTON - A federal judge Thursday ordered tobacco companies Thursday to admit they lied about the harmful effects of smoking cigarettes and to warn consumers in advertisements and packaging that tobacco is addictive.
U.S. District Judge Gladys Kessler ruled that the industry conspired for decades to deceive the public about the dangers of smoking and now must pay to help smokers kick the habit.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I'd eat a seven course meal in the car if I had to. Mess doesn't bother me.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
