HOUSTON — Under grey February skies Stacey and I were on the road from Bethel, CT to San Antonio.
14 February 2008 began the first leg of the trip: To Bethel from Brooklyn to help Stacey pack and run a few last-minute errands. From there, the next day at around noon, we departed for an 1894 mile move to Texas across 8 states, 3 days and 1 time zone. I have no idea how much coffee I drank, how much caffeine, taurine, high fructose corn syrup and whatever else is in Monster, Rock Star, Jolt (they sell the stuff in liter size aluminum cans in some places – not NYC). By the second day both Stacey and I were drinking V8 and having fruit and/or cereal for breakfast but still eating crap along the way.
