Road Trip!

Just a quick post - I'm at my cousin's in Reno. Her son is getting baptized tomorrow, so I hitched a ride with my other cousin and her kids and made a weekend of it. It was a stinking long drive and the kids were pretty rowdy. But then I pulled out my laptop and we all watched "Doctor Who" between Wendover and Reno (I have a massively good battery - when the battery was dead, we switched to episodes on my iPod). It's amazing how quiet they were when the Doctor was on the screen (we got through "The Next Doctor" to "The Waters of Mars"). Even the older boy that doesn't really like DW very much enjoyed having something to other than torture his siblings.
Along the way, my Reno cousin called and proposed that I go on a blind date with someone in her ward. You'd think I'd have learned my lesson last March, but she's really nice and it's not like I can make anything last with this guy (with a six hour drive between us, you see). But whatever. I've never been to Reno, so what better way to see the sights, I suppose (yes, everyone's thinking how deprived I am from never having been to Reno /sarcasm).
I'm excited to be visiting... but I have the feeling that it's going to be an exhausting weekend. In a good way.
