Bakersfield.. not Fresno

Too tired to go any further. I am at Vagabond Inn in Bakersfield to the tune of $42. Free breakfast if I get up by 9am. (waffles, donuts and such) I was starting to fall asleep and with those crazy aggressive drivers I got scared. I was actually scared before I got sleepy. The huge hills up and down and people weaving in and out...lights glaring.. and not really sure where I was going because the Bitch in the Box kept shutting down. (SHE really is a bitch when she quits on the job) AND it was REALLY REALLY dark out there!!

Unfortunately I am close to 4 hours from Yosemite and I was hoping to spend the whole day there tomorrow. It was better that I got to spend the time with family, cuz I never know when I will have that again.. and Yosemite will always be there in my lifetime. Maybe one day I will take the GRANDONE Blaze there. I miss him.. I feel the homesickness setting in. I talked to Brenna today and it got me a little bit.. now it is bad. I have lost track of time, but it should be close to the third day, it always happens that way.

A few concerns.. I believe my colitis has come back.. or I am just having a wicked time from the antibiotics, but my stomach has to settle down, sprinting into a greasy truckstop sucks. I was thinking of uping my steriods.. but I did not bring enough. Next thought is pepto.. but that stuff should be outlawed. My usual solution to this is to quit eating, but I don't think that will be wise at this time. Second concern is I cut my left hand fixing the sprinkler before I left.. center of my palm. It was getting quite infected and Marcie donated some bandaids and antibiotic ointment to my cause. I think it is starting to work. Traveling is dirty and yucky.. even in this hotel I am having a germ-a-phobe attack.
How come in front of many of the rooms the people leave their shoes outside their rooms? Do that many people have tooooo stinky feet? Is it a signal that there are a certain number of people in the room... or????

I should go to sleep.. more tomorrow nite, I hope... if the bears don't get me!!

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE,
Jada
