Home at Last

Alright - we made it. We're here in Los Vegas. I lied. I thought I was in Culver City, but apparently we just make it in Los Angeles, so there ya go, I'm officially a resident of California.

                     David had to "do his hair" before we went to the strip

Last night was sick. We drove around the strip a couple times, soaking it in. We never actually parked and got out of the car, but we didn't see a point in paying 20 dollars to park out car then walk around.

We left Vegas early in the morning and drove into to Mojave Desert and jeez was it hot. It was over 115 degrees with the windows open, driving 75mph. We all know the phrase "cold as a witch's tit," well, this was as hot as the devil's ass crack. Yes, this makes sense. Think about it, hell's hot, flames everywhere. Have you ever seen the devil wear pants? No. If he did, there'd be as sweat mark. So there, this should be a new phrase - hot as the devil's ass crack.



Anywho, the desert was super hot and we stopped in Joshua Tree. It was beautiful. The trees there are so unique and look like something out of a Dr. Suess book - aka, they're awesome.  We saw some lizards, birds, some weird desert chipmunk. It was overall an awesome day - if not full of sweat, dehydration, and sunburn.



The apartment is awesome - I'll post pictures soon, but I'm super excited to be here. My mind is now in furnishing mode - bed frame, dresser, etc.

This whole trip was awesome. My mom was the perfect company and the last week was something we both needed. I wouldn't have wanted to do it with anyone else looking back on it.

Again, this is a short posting because I'm tired, but I'll make it up to all of you soon.

Keep reading the blog as I update about the apt coming together and my job searching! Thanks for taking the time to take the trip with us through the wonders of the internet!
