| Sullivan/St. Louis Area:
* Westbound Rest Area at St. Clair (Mile Marker 235) -- Closed until late August.
*Route 100 east at Gray Summit (Mile
Marker 253) -- The ramp from Route 100 east to westbound I-44 and the
ramp from westbound I-44 to Rte. 100 east are closed until June 1 while
crews reconstruct and lengthen the ramps. The two through lanes on
westbound I-44 will be narrowed to 10 feet. Barrier wall is located
along the right shoulder.
Detour routes for the closed ramps are as follows:

continue on Rte. 100 and detour to the I-44 interchange to the west of
Gray Summit (Exit 251). While the ramp from westbound I-44 to Rte. 100
is closed, motorists can detour to the I-44 interchange in the city of
Pacific (Exit 257) or to the I-44 interchange to the west of Gray
Summit (Exit 251).
This work is expected to be complete in December 2006.

| Aw. I started to take a Sesame Street Persona test, and then
realized most of the elementary school questions didn't apply to me,
because I was homeschooled for most of that.
Swing Dancing, Casaloma Ballroom, 8 p.m. Friday. Save me a dance 
Does anyone have a copy of the Da Vinci Code?? I want to read it
but not actually BUY it. Because clearly, buying into Their world
only aids Them (yes there's a Them). I mean the scientologists
get it!
If you needed a stage name, what would it be? | | |
| It has been too long since I have posted. Sadly, I don't have
anything exciting going on. Even worse, there isn't anything
politcal I care to rant about! Still, I will try to muster
something up.
Those of you who are in school, do you wish you were finished?
Those of you who were working, do you wish you were still in
school? I wish neither, though am becoming discontent with my
current situation. Everyone has a when-this-happens-I'll-do-this
coming up, and if you were wondering, mine is moving to StL.
Something about living on acres and acres next to acres and acres next
to a golf course and next to a farm is not doing it for me right now.
It seems that some of you post pretty personal stuff on here, but I
can't bring myself to do it! I mean, what if someone were to READ
it? Thus, I will stop right there. Hope everyone is
doing well. Have a wonderful week!
P.S. Summer: Haste the day! Skip Spring altogether if you want.
P.P.S. It is suppose to rain ALL WEEK.

| The search is over! I bought a car. It is everything
I hoped it would be and more. I now get to experience all sorts
of fun things, like not breaking down, having heat in the winter, air
in the summer, people wanting to check out my car... It was such
a difficult decision! And so much pressure!! I'm glad my
daddy came. And glad it's over.
I've always wanted personalized plates, but could never think of
anything cool. If you could personalize your plates, what would
they be?
I apologize for the lack of creativity and length in this post.
However, I wanted to update you, that I do indeed have a car :)

| Yes, it is a bit early for my regularly unscheduled Xanga post.
However, I have something to share with my loved ones, about a loved
one. It is soon coming time for me to part with my first love,
Louie. There's so much to repair, I know it's time to move
on. It's just we've been together for so long, it's hard to
imagine my life with someone else...
Unless of course that someone is better, smaller and smells like
new...time to go car shopping! I had hoped this day would come
later, but I am going to try to see this not as losing a beloved
material object, but gaining a warranty, an engine stabilizer, an
odometer, unobstructed vision, a break pad cover, heat, air
conditioning...etc.
In the meantime, here's to my car starting tomorrow morning!
