“Oh To Be Carless In Kansas”

Awake dejected and lonely in Goodland, KS. Today will be especially hard on Dennis, who must leave his beloved SLEPE 63 behind. If this were old West, and SLEPE 63 were a horse, we would have had to put her out of her misery. As it is, this is a possibility for Dennis.

Get ride to Vo-Tech school from instructor. Drew begs and pleads for others to provide rides for unfortunate Mothers® guys. Suggests we look sad — it will help. Dennis does not need help. Dennis snags a black Corvette. Forrest does not.

Find out my driver has been sleeping in car — is doing Tour on low/no budget. Hook-up with Callaway buds again for drive to KC, and plane home to get the Way Cool Mothers® Vortech Mustang to finish Tour. Driver must think he has eighteen speed truck transmission — any time RPM’s drop more than two hundred, he downshifts. Wants to show me how fast car is — I am going to die in Kansas.

Arrive KC — go to airport. 5:00 PM flight to good ol’ St. Louis. Push back from gate at 5:00 PM — sit until 7:30 PM. Blast off. Circle St. Louis for another hour. Land at 8:35 PM. Drive home and crash in own bed.

2:15 AM — realize I haven’t seen Dennis since Goodland at 6:30 this morning. Wonder if he made his flight. Oh well, too late now. Back to sleep.
