Okay, I'm packed and have a list of things to do before I leave tomorrow.

I was havin' this out-of-body experience
Saw these cosmic beings
Everywhere I went up there, they were shakin' their cosmic things
Like someone gave ya a wild goose, or a freight train with
A loose caboose
You better shake your... honeybuns! Shake your honeybuns!
-- B52s, "Cosmic Thing"

I didn't realize that I had the B52s on tape. Excellent. I must be nuts, but I spent a lot of the evening reviewing my tape collection and taping (and listening to) albums that I decided that I had to have for the trip.

Yes, I said "tape". My car doesn't have a CD player. Or air conditioning. Or cruise control-;)

One of the tapes that I'm bringing has two of my favorite driving songs: "Angels" (David Byrne) and "Steam" (Peter Gabriel). I guess I'll save that tape for I-5, which is a north-south interstate that people seem to think is the Autobahn. When I drove it down to L.A., most people were passing me--and I was going 80 MPH.

What are your favorite driving songs?

Road trip!

Logging off. Next entry from Sacramento!

(Yes, I'm bringing my laptop. In a way, it seems lame to me, but I want to capture my impressions of Sacramento in close to real time.)

Running about 45 minutes late. I'll definitely miss the Bay Area rush hour, but might hit Sacramento's. Oh well.
