I went to one of my favorite places today. Chattanooga. Many of you are probably thinking, “Really? Chattanooga is one of your places?” (In my head, you are saying it in that “Chattanooga is for dweebs!” way that you talk since you are the head of the football team and I am a mathlete and we are in a movie from the 80′s.) My comeback to that is telling you how Chattanooga is actually super awesome. I have a laundry list of reasons why it is the best, but maybe it is also paired with the fact that I really haven’t been to that many places….Stop making me doubt my love for Chattanooga. I’m going to go to Paris one day and hate it and wish I was Seeing Rock City.
Anyways, while on my way there, I saw a semi-truck pulled over on the highway and two hitchhikers were being picked up. I immediately exclaimed (to the driver, Nick) that I felt like I should be crossing this experience off of some sort of bucket list. I just witnessed hitchhikers being picked up by a truck driver! This was followed by disbelief by my chauffeur that my list had me watching someone else successfully hitchhike rather than include hitchhiking myself. This was followed by lame jokes including many exciting things that I could watch others do. Apparently I should add “Watch someone sky dive” to my list. Maybe it’s just me, but I think it’s okay that I don’t want to stand on the side of the road and put my thumb up issuing the international sign for “Murder me.” It may make me seem dull, but how dull can I be? I was taking a daytrip to the fun capitol of Tennessee. I was also able to cross #49 off of my bucketlist.
…..
46. Eat a peanut.
47. Wear jeggings.
48. Go to Rock City and see seven states at once.
49. Witness murder victims be picked up by their future killer.
