Are We There Yet?

 

Taking road trips growing up was brutal!! Seconds seemed like minutes, minutes seemed like hours, and hours seemed like forever lol.  I can recall riding with my moms (that is right, I have three lol; I'll explain later 🤣) from Louisiana to Dallas and that trip always was a bummer lol. First off, there was nothing on I-20 to look at.  Secondly, we did not have all the gadgets these kids had these days to help pass the time.  So, we were stuck with radio/music, Gameboys (batteries were trash lol), and playing random car games. Let’s fast forward to adulthood and guess what?  It still sucks lol.  What Young Trellie did not appreciate is that even though the trip was brutal, we did not have to drive lol.  Somehow that key component went right over our heads lol. Do you know what is worst than a long road trip?  Having to actually drive that long trip lol.  There is no napping for the driver!  There is no daydreaming for the driver!  There is no playing around for the driver!! The driver must be focused at all times.  I think it is worst to drive these days then when our parents took us places though.  There are so many distractions inside these cars, and you must eliminate them all.  This is something I fail at miserably lol. Of course, now that I am older, I have options for traveling: planes, trains, & automobiles; however, all still take some type of time to get from point A to point B.  I was hoping someone could have created teleporting by now lol.  That would make traveling so much sweeter lol; someone needs to get with Steve Urkel so we can get this invention created lol. On that note, I still hate it here; however, the destination after traveling is always a great time.  Until it is time to return home smh lol.                  

P.S. – before I go, I thought it might be a great time to explain my three moms situation lol.  There is my TLady (Big Red) the mom that birth me.  There is my sis, the mom that helped raised me. Then there is my first cousin/aunt, the mom who always made sure I stayed active and kept me around with her kids.  Get it? Got it? Good lol.
