I have survived day two (and obviously day one) of my road trip!

We're in New Mexico now, because driving with a trailer is sloooow. We only made it out of goddamn Arizona this afternoon. However, I am having issues breathing because the elevation up here is A LOT HIGHER THAN I AM USED TO. I would like my body to knock that off soon, plz... or for us to descend to an elevation I can handle. Either one works. However, I much prefer not being able to breathe to not being able to go outside without falling over from the heat, so I would still take this over Tempe.

We saw the Grand Canyon today! Not the big, really impressive part of it, but one corner of it. It was awesome, and the mountains are pretty up here and the full moon has been up for most of the day, and everything is generally pretty damn awesome. Though I do have legitimate questions about how my nails got so dirty when I barely did more than sit in a car and read all day...

I'm going to collapse on the bed and read moar now. Or possibly actually write, but Dresden Files is distracting. Fucking Harry. You ruin my productivity. (Also, strangely enough, our cruise control. Whenever he was in the front of my headspace, the damn cruise control would not stay a consistent speed. 65 MPH WITH A TRAILER IS FUCKING TERRIFYING.)
