Driving across Kansas.

In an orange Plymouth Duster with a guy I really didn't like, but had to pretend that he had a chance with me, since I needed a ride home from college over the Thanksgiving break. He was boring and tried to hit on me the entire 16 hour trip. He got lost so we had to bunk down at a farm somewhere in Ohio because he got too crazy tired to drive safely...I couldn't sleep because I was afraid he would try something...worst road trip experience ever...then I had to repeat it, except the farm layover, to get back...double worst road trip experience ever...

In Trump's America.

Ohio

Kansas.

Unable to afford my own place and can't move out from my ended marriage/relationship. It's been a few years...

In my own head.

Driving across Texas, from east to west, was the longest boring experience of my life.

I was stuck in Venezuela for a week after being mugged on day one by machete point then trying to get passports while everything was closed for holy week, because the police wanted to throw us in jail for not having passports.

In a rental car half way across the country with someone and we weren't getting along at all, in fact I think she almost wanted me dead. Never been so glad to walk into the Vegas airport alone.

Laguardia Airport

Dulles Airport....37 hours. Ice storms suck.

Optima Oklahoma. 2 years. There might be nice parts of Oklahoma, but that ain't it.

Marriage.

Aberdeen a more dreech(scottish word) place ive never been to

The Army

Stranded overnight in Seoul's airport. Howling rainstorm outside made even a day tour seem awful. This is the only time in my life I rented a hotel room by the hour!

(Edited to say...by the hour to SLEEP, of course!)

I concur with @nottheonlyone about in my head, for years at a time. Physically other than living alone for much longer than is ideal, By the side of the road downtown with a flat waiting on a jack in Knoxville (apparently my used car was missing it). then the donut got me maybe a half mile before having to be towed anyways to a wal mart parking lot to spend the night til I could buy a tire. Had two friends with me, taking one to see a band for his birthday but wound up missing the show, his dad came to get him from an hour n a half away and the other friend stayed with me in the parking lot til morning. Biggest bummer of a wasted night ever.

Life... long time, very long time!

When I was laid off after 31 years of uninterrupted service. The time between jobs felt like the twilight zone or something. Stay home and do nothing did NOT fare too well with me. I was pretty miserable freaking out.... Luckily, I was searching so agressively that I found an even better job. The fact that it is 70 miles away from home seems unimportant now.
