Hmm... sounds fun to do... although, the windows are tinted.
I never thought of audiobooks.
i will look into that.

You guys have some hilarious ideas!
no killing things, no flashing other motorists! 😀
 
OK Lola, it is time you did it. You have all those wedding pictures and stuff in digital format. Get a converter or DC connection for a laptop and use a video editing program, Photo Story, or such to make a musical montage with pans and scans. If you use the alternate pictures, get one of those privacy inserts for the screen and sit in the back seat... 😉

When i leave my office on thursday night, i will not think of it until i get back on the 23rd of Jan.

How is something that makes you use your mind boring? I find it fun, and makes the time pass very fast. And for the most part they are not hard enough to make you wanna rip the book up 😛

You could always sing camp songs.
Loudly.

EDIT:
I know a song that gets on every body's nerves, everybody's nerves, everybody's nerves, I know a song that gets on everybody's nerves and THIS is how it goooeesss.
I know a song...
 
Buy a vehicle that has a rear DVD entertainment system and watch movies all the way there. Or if you don't want to / can't afford one just go to the dealer and take one for a "test drive" and bring it back when you get back. If they ask why you took so long just tell them that you wanted to make sure that it was the right vehicle for you...but in the end you decided you didn't like it. If they don't buy that, fake a heart attack and slowly roll your way off the lot.

I really don't like driving that much (long drive, ~21 hours) so what are some things that one can do to keep busy?

We have a laptop, ipod, dvds magazines, but what else?
Any road games to play to pass time besides spotting license plates and BINGO?

I could take some NyQuil and pass out, but that is somewhat rude 😉
So what to do?
😕

Lost Season 1 on Dvd. Kept me busy for a few days when I was staying at home with an ill child before.
