CBS Casting: The Amazing Race
Ok, I'm at it again. I'm a bit of a softy when it comes to contests and casting calls like this. I can't sing so don't worry, you will never see me on American Idol or America's go Talent. I also don't want to eat worms or cockroaches so you will probably also never see me on Fear Factor, but I think I can do a lot of the stunts so I'm interested in The Amazing Race. Plus I obviously love to travel.
I was never big on watching a lot of these reality shows. I was addicted to the first two Big Read more [...]
It’s been a little foggy lately
I'm staying on my dad's ranch in Washington state for the time being. It's huge 600 acre huge, enough to keep 90+ horses huge. It's pretty and located in an out of the way place.

Payments

HATE LONG DISTANCE DRIVING
I'm more of a pilot, flying, fast trip and go have fun kind of person vs. 12-40 hours of driving to my destination kind of person. So my plan to drive a ton this week is not one that fills me full of excitement, except knowing how much more stuff I get to bring with me.
DRIVING ENTERTAINMENT
I was suppose to leave today, but my dad is flying in tonight to help me drive tomorrow. I've already downloaded a few audio books that are LONG to entertain me. Among the titles: Eat. Pray. Love. (already Read more [...]
