Z, best of luck with the cross-country road tripping thing. I’m guessing you’re gonna need it. To do:
- check tire pressure
- top off washer fluids
- oil rifle in case of creek-crossing grizzly attack (best to plan ahead)
- ruminate on the compromising nature of your new state’s Democratic senator
- ensure sufficient barbiturates and earplugs for maternal conversation therapeutics

sometimes when you don’t check your tires, you get to break down in alabama.
Bye AZ! Come back to visit!
