So there's this quiz that you can take on the Internet, and it might just change your life.
No, I'm not talking about the "Which Cruel Intentions Character Are You?" quiz, although that one's pretty great (I'm Annette, which is annoying, because obviously Kathryn would be much more fun). I'm talking the Five Love Languages quiz.
I'm a little embarrassed about jumping on board the Internet Armchair Psychology train, but for real: it's kind of amazing.
I totally forgot to show you the last stop on our road trip - and I have to, because it was one of the coolest things I've ever seen.
When we were in Joshua Tree, we stayed at a gorgeous AirBnB way out in the desert, and when we were driving back to the main road we saw this crazy sort of art installation rising out of the sand, and pulled over to discover a full-on outdoor museum of "assemblage sculptures" - basically, pieces created using only found objects ("Noah" refers to Noah Purifoy, the museum's founder).
If you ever make it out that way: go, for real.
We're heeeeeere! We're here we're here we're here.
I went a little MIA for the past three days because...well, because "busy" is a little bit of an understatement, but also because I didn't have Internet. But now I do, whee. So I'm back! Hi.
I love it here.
Alright, so the rest of our trip was "an experience."
This?
VACATION.
Late night lights in Truth Or Consequences, NM
We needed this trip. So, so badly.
I knew it when we decided to drive out here, how good it would be for us to just spend time together, as a couple and as a family, in a way we haven't in a really, really long time. It's mostly the hours in the car that have done it: we talk, sing along to music, run around gas station convenience stores picking out terrible, horrible things to eat, and mostly just hang out together.
