You know you’re a traveler when…

people ask you if you’re home for the holidays and you say “oh, yes. We’re home.” Over and over again.

But then each time you add “oh, but we’re leaving on Tuesday for a night in Philadelphia. Then we’ll be heading up to Bethlehem, PA on Wednesday where we’ll be attending the first annual Peeps Fest. Then it’s over to Reading on Thursday for New Year’s Eve at my sister’s house.”

Since it’s Christmas week and we’re not getting on an airplane apparently three days on the road and two nights in a hotel don’t really count as traveling. More like taking a stroll up the street I guess.

I do have some sad news to report: Our reliable, grody, small-but-gets-the-job-done sedan may be moving one step closer to obsolescence. Due to a strange noise it’s been making we don’t trust it and have actually rented a car for this jaunt. So we’ll be traveling in the spacious comfort of a mid-sized car smelling of whatever that spray is they use as opposed to boy funk.

I hope to write some posts about this “non-trip” from the road. Stay tuned…
