I'll be on a train all weekend. I'll try and keep you guys updated on it, regardless of if you give a damn.

Last night, I took the midnight train, going anywhere (although I had to get off this morning in St. Louis so I can connect to Kansas City). Had a small amount to drink, much less than what I was hoping for. I'll be sure and not make that mistake again.

Currently at the station in St. Louis. Unfortunately my next train doesn't leave for 8 hours. Time to go stock up.

This is my "bored" face. I'll post some train pictures later, when I eventually take some. All of them will be shitty iPod quality, because I hate you all .

Pass Out but not violent drunk? That's the perfect level.

That's okay. I've been in abusive relationships before.

Hopefully the train system doesn't abuse me!

Update 1: I'm sitting on my ass in the terminal, after walking 2 miles round trip to Walgreens. Walgreens didn't sell alcohol. I'm sad. :(

At least they sell expensive beer on the train.

Yup. Still sitting around in STL. The train to Kansas City leaves at 4.

Ah, so not an overnighter. I used to go from Michigan to North Dakota years back and always had a sleeper cabin. It wasn't bad. Amtrak sucks compared to Deutsch Bahn or Japan Rail though. But for short trips, it's not too bad.

Had an overnighter last night from Little Rock to St. Louis. Gonna get into Kansas City tonight around 9:30, then gonna get on another overnighter. KC to Flagstaff, get in Sunday night around 8:30 local time. Coach on all the trains, because I'm cheap and don't mind sleeping in the seats. Layover in St. Louis is kind of long but it's not the worst thing in the world. I've got movies / snacks.

I love Flagstaff. It's a great town. We just went last summer. I used to live in Arizona. Sounds like a great trip.

Moving there to finish up college this fall. I live in the Phoenix area normally, but I'm dealing with family business stuff in Arkansas. So what would normally be an hour and a half / two hour drive from my house to NAU has become a weekend train adventure!
