I still believe in this rock and roll.

Well, I went shopping with both grandmas over the past couple days, and encountered some excellent finds in terms of apparel for my trip. I got two pairs of long shorts, a pair of capris, and maybe four long-sleeved button-up cotton shirts. The best part is the hat, which is SPF 50. I know clothing can't be SPF, it's S-something-else-with-a-U, but yeah. Protects me from the sun. And it looks fantastic with this new hair cut. It also looks fantastic on the dog. But I'll post that on YouTube later.

I'm not sure I mentioned but these are the dates of the trip: June 1 to August 3, both Mondays, with Northwest Airlines. I leave from Milwaukee at 8:40 am on June 1, sit in Minneapolis for an hour or two to transfer planes, and arrive in Denver at 12:28 pm. Then, August 3, I leave Denver at 2:20 pm, transfer in Minneapolis again, and arrive back in Milwaukee at 8:33 pm. Write that down, Mom. ;]

I need to check and see if the sleeping bags we have will keep me warm in temperatures of 20 degrees F. I guess that's in case we go camping or our heating blows out or something. I suppose surviving the night is a good thing. Anyway, if it doesn't handle those temperatures, we need to buy a sleeping bag. *goes and checks* *gasp* The tag is ripped!

[Edit:] Looks like I'll be buying a new sleeping bag, woo hoo. Unless someone has one I can borrow. Let me know. It has to have a comfort rating of 20 degrees F or lower!
