I survived my trip to Ohio. Right now I&#8217;m alone in the house so what do I do? Clean? Cook? Read? (Mmmm, read&#8230;.) No!

Dropped the hounds off at the kennels, complete with big bag of dog food (5 or 8 lbs &#8211; hey, it&#8217;s big for OUR dogs). Savored what would be my last real time alone until&#8230;oh, Christ. Right now.<\/p>\n<p>Got on the road around noon. Stopped for lunch at a restaurant located next to one of my company&#8217;s restaurants. (ooh, so badass, not going to a company restaurant!) Made it to the boy&#8217;s around 3 and Blanche&#8217;s soon after. Stopped for dinner at Cracker Barrel in TN. Bitchfight over the check ensues (this was the first of many such bitchfights).<\/p>\n<p>Did you know Tennessee smells? I noticed this when we went to Knoxville in February and it&#8217;s still true!<\/p>\n<p>The funniest thing I saw &#8212; and sadly, it was at night so I have no documentation, was the GIANT (maybe 6 stories tall?) cross next to the Adult Entertainment store.<\/p>\n<p>At one point we stopped for gas at a BP station somewhere (Kentucky?) and I took a header over a cement block. Nothing like looking like a bufoon in Kentucky to make a nice girl proud!<\/p>\n<p>Made it to the hotel in Columbus about midnight. Parked the car (valet &#8211; only option! ridiculous!). To bed.
