While I was on the Duc today I reminisced on the many trips that I have taken. I remember one trip, Me and Nicolio took a trip to Mexico, well Nuevo Laredo. It was on a Memorial day weekend about 6 years ago. Over 1200 miles, 2 tickets and many wrong turns All in 2.5 days. We packed lightly and hopped into her hyundai. Man were we dumb. Hell, it was probably the best trip ever tho.
I also remember taking a trip to Marietta, Ga to camp with my then girlfriend Jackie. We stopped my Grandmothers house. Being a devout vegetarian, Jackie cringed while she was "force-fed" a piece of crawfish. We took a week off that time. We had so much fun.
Then the big move to Atlanta with my Ex-wife Michelle, then back. I have been on so many trips with so many friends. From best friends in high school to future exes, for the most part I have been with a partner.
But while on the Duc, I came to a realization. Since December, all of my trips have been solo. There is no other way I'd rather be riding on the road. Solo.
After just a few months of dating, I proposed to this girl and she said yes. We were married in March, lost our jobs, ran away to Atlanta then came back. We had a lot to deal with. Our marriage started to falter after multiple arguments. On one last ditch effort, we separated in January, I started school in Oklahoma. Then in March she filed. This is my life after marriage and into the future.
