The terrifying email
1)Government employee working on weekend that is fast tracking TO INSANITY
2) Imagine getting that on day two of rehabilitation, realizing you are going to have to KEEP at I because you (ALONE) will be driving cross country after packing the car to the gills, and the husband will pack the rest to the GILLS and like really, you are doing it. And staying somewhere (perhaps you will find a friendly farmhand to give you an abode for a bit) while you are still having FEVERS although rehabilitation is going well etc.
I MEAN WHY GOD WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS. I am gong to have to essentially condense 5 months into 6 weeks. I am sure I will be better equipped for this by then but STILL. Oh well guess you never feel ready, exactly,
I know I can negotiate a start date but if everyone would CHILLLL it would help me chill.
Also, I don't want to hear any guff about like motels being safer. The kind I rent usually aren't they are stuffed to the gills with people I can AVOID when finding a great parking area near a road.
Also, I'm a good judge of character so a farmhand would be just fine. I have never been date raped drugged (Heh, like it was ever necessary) and I am not starting now. I just mean I will sleep in blissful car peace and like stop at a truck stop shower ever while I guess. ALSO more dangerous than sleeping in your car I bet.
I will tell my mom I will stay in hotels (maybe the husband too) but that is so do they don't commit me. I have done this my whole life, I was a free spirited hippie, and it's just a matter of assessing your surroundings and research and you are totally FINE.
I don't hitch hike as a rule but I would have too much stuff anyway and you have to draw the line somewhere. Usually you are most at risk of a ticket from a cop if he finds you and he lectures you about safety and you are like, "Uh huh can I take a look at your taser/gun it looks interesting."
I kid sort of. MOSTLY I AM APPALLED. OMG
