January 12, 2008 – Do It, Baby (Megan)

So we two- the disillusioned graduate and the restless bookworm- have set a date (more or less) for our departure. We're California bound- me on my virgin journey to the west coast, and Pam seeking to revisit some of the places she's carried in her heart for years. We've found ourselves each facing our own set of ever-scary crossroads, and we've both made the decision to try a different route than the rut-ridden roads we've both been traveling for far too long. What better way to shed your coat-o'-funk than with a fun and awe-inspiring trip to some of the most beautiful places in the continental U.S.? Wish us luck, friends! May we find our old layers peeling away (effortlessly or otherwise) as we begin our search, and a kick-ass trip!(definition of "rut" : a fixed or established mode of procedure or course of life, usually dull or unpromising...that pretty much sums it up!)
