So I Felt "Frisky"

frustratedpilotHey.
"Frisky" is what my brother calls the state approaching White Line Fever, when you're driving and the synthesis of destination and mobility process takes over.
Today, as part of a very large driving loop, I went to Rogersville. I hadn't been there in years, as it isn't on the way to anywhere and I rarely had any business there. But I drove there anyway. It's just a tad too far away to go to without a really specific reason.
Today, the weather was just too good to resist. All the Mardi Gras Witch Doctors must have worked overtime because there was sunshine to burn. Much too nice a day for the last of February.
And so I learned a little more about Rogersville. Their car parts plants are still running strong. They have a playing cards factory. The Clayton mobile homes factory is hiring...too far away for me. Besides, I'm not built tough enough for a factory floor job.
One of the excuses for my running around for the last couple months was the fact that some Dollar General stores had received shipments of Bandai anime DVDs, and I was hunting down titles I wanted. I was generally successful, but the pickings have gotten slim and I was running into the realm of diminishing returns. I'm still seeking the following:
Argentosoma volumes 2, 4, 5 and 6
G-Gundam volumes 2, 5 and 12
Gundam Wing volumes 6, 7, 9, and 10
But I now realize I'll probably have to find these through more orthodox sources.
I didn't get done everything I wanted to do today, but I think I did pretty well considering.
