This blog is severely neglected.
I quit my job at Safeway. I was a slave. I will not be a stepping stone anymore.
I am still planning a road trip, down the west coast in fact. I plan on going through Canada and making a few more acquaintances via acquaintances on the way. Then down through Washington, Oregon, California. Then into Mexico. Two more stamps in my passport. There's still alot I need to do before September. Alot. I hope it works out.
I have procured a 1977 Volvo. It is a pretty sexy machine. Even has a sunroof. I'm going back into the tourist industry for the summer...I applied with Princess to work at the Denali lodge, or on the railway from (I think) Kenai to Fairbanks..that's roughly a 12 hour drive by car one way. If I do not get that job, however, I will be going back to Juneau and making the big moneys again. Maybe camping again. Losing weight again. Having fun and being free again.
My one year anniversary is coming up. One year! I hope he goes with my on my road trip.

BalancingAct (11.1.07 21:32) All the blogs are severely neglected. It's as if a case of BlogBlight broke out. It's very good to see your blog is recovering though. Your trip sounds wonderful. In fact your job possibilities sound pretty good, too. |

darkside (12.1.07 03:08) Sara? Sara! Where in the America did you move? Or was that all a metaphor for, "I am still in Londinium, or somewhere in the whole of Inglaterra and just wanted to throw you off." Menace: I think the only thing that would be getting hammered on the rail are the tourists. Umm. From alcohol, of course. I thought I'd make that clear. Yes, yes! Vancouver..I still need to plan a route..get a map of Canada and the US. All those little things. |

foxinthesnow / Website (12.1.07 12:14) I moved to Vox, which is shiny and pretty. A bit too shiny and pretty if you ask me. Anyway, I'm at inkpolaroids.vox.com. Glad you're back. |
