A Tank of Gas by J. W. Murphy Tuesday, November 19, 2002 Share Print Save Become a Fan Dropped off the car today, shipping it back to the States, shipping it back where it came from. It occurred to me just now that the next time I fill the tank I'll be filling it up back home. Of course, I'll be there first, waiting for the ship to come in with that old beat up car inside. I'll be happy when the ship comes in-- not 'cause I'm attached to the car. I'll be happy to have something to drive that's paid for, and all I have to do is fill it up with a tank of gas.

Aaaww, this is so...surreal, that feeling of "tomorrow I'll be somewhere totally different...my life is changing". I've felt that way many times in my travels, whether it be going home, or starting anew...write a seguel when you fill up!! Erin :)
