Entering Texas

It was dark while I was driving, but basically looked flat, featureless, with a long, straight road into darkness. There was also the bonus of cow manure smell, and the tell-tale packing plants on the road side. I have never cared much for Texas. It could be because of my politics. It could be because I received my one and only traffic violation here in the middle of a fight with a family member.

I was really tired, and J was already asleep from his all-nighters. Our cat, Dharma was so panicked by then, nothing would stop her from meowing. She was starting to get a hoarse/smoker's voice. We will be sleeping in Texas, so I will have to come to terms with my feelings!
