It's almost time! *does a dance*

I go up to Ohio on Friday. The weather is supposed to be fairly nice--dry, but really freakin' cold. My uncle emailed me and said it was 17 on Monday morning. Jesus!

Mom and I bought some new warm clothes--sweaters and sweatshirts. It was kind of surprising--most of them were in the women's section and fit perfectly. Usually, I have to go dig around the men's section for my clothes, because I've got pretty big arms and women's clothes usually don't accommodate them. I particularly like the penguin sweater. I collect penguin-related things, and Christmastime is always a gold mine.

I hope my uncle's physical appearance hasn't changed radically in the past seven years. I haven't seen him since then, and I remember him as a guy with grayish teeth, a big almost-fumanchu mustache, and thick black hair. He said either him or Papaw Ralph would be picking me up at the bus station.

Been working on collecting up my things and putting them together--I think I'll actually pack tomorrow, and pack my food up on Friday. I feared my uncle would refuse to buy me vegetarian food or mock me mercilessly for my dietary needs, so I'm bringing up a small, lunchbox-sized coolerful of food with me--veggie soups, veggie chili, black bean burgers, smart-dogs, and veggie-slices.

Tomorrow, we're going shopping for a couple of other things I wanted to take on the bus--a roll of toilet paper, waterless hand sanitizer, protein bars, and maybe a bottle of ginger ale.

Then, on Thursday, I'm going to sleep in. XD
