I hope you have a great time!

I'd love to go with you, but I'm strapped for cash right now. I've got a car payment for another 3 years.

Hopefully I can pay it off within this year and then just put some money away for a nice long trip!

If ANYONE wants to join me, I'm game! I've got a honda civic manual 5 speed that gets great gas mileage! Bring on the adventure!!

You should have done this earlier this month. I had some time off where I could have went. Then you can travel in style and not pay for gas! Of course, you would be staying in your own hotel room, so that may end up being more expensive.

Edit-unless the OP is female. Then we can share a room.

Dude... stop in NJ for some dinner and pool at Gabrielle's.

Where is Gabrielles here in Jersey?

Piscataway (it's that-a-way). It's not a chain or anything, just a single location sports bar.

ATOT meet in Gabrielle's! I'd be down for it

We've had one already 🙂 last year 🙂

Schedule one someone.

I might be up for that. It's only 30 minutes from my office.

I think I'm actually running up that way on Saturday to buy a car but I have a lax game in Philly that night I have to get back to. Hmm...probably would cut things too close.

Only of the weather maybe 😀
 
btw, I had a friend renting a bedroom in my house about 5 years ago. Moved to Montana a year or two ago and went through that whole "finding himself" phase and quit his job and drove all around the country and stuff like that. I still get collectors calling the house to repossess his car, collect on bills and stuff like that. Blew through his 401k and his fico isn't much higher than 401. I wish you the best of luck but when you're out there just remember at the end of it all you have to at some point return to being a grown up so don't do too much damage...or you could just be a bum the rest of your life like my friend.

Most likely the way it'll be.
 
what's your skillset? If you need gas money going through the middle of the country, I can probably help you out with some day work.

Definitely.

I'm in IT though - Unix, Linux, BSD, LAMP, PHP, MySQL, etc.

Leaving today for Roanoke, VA from Atlantic City, NJ.

You'll pass me on 81.

Cool! Wanna meet up? I'm meeting my friend @ Virginia Tech later today and can't really stop before then, but tomorrow I can stop after that.
 
Boston is great, but you realize that there is a whole different part of teh US out there when you leave. I am thinking about leaving MA, but I am not sure if I can leave family.
