My friend and his wife went to lunch with me and took me to the train station. It was close, like they were boarding when I got there but got to the train with time to spare. Started in on the wine. Fell asleep somewhere outside of Jackson and it’s 8:24pm….will be in Memphis in a few hours. Obviously not stopping there, should be in Chicago in the morning and off to California. The train to New Orleans to Chicago is kinda boring after it goes over the lake. I have plenty of wine, salami and cheese and triscuits. Just going to keep on the wine and put on the sleep mask with some white noise on the headphones and be to Chicago soon.

I already have my next ticket booked so just gotta get on there. It’s almost time to put on the Hustle & Flow soundtrack when I get to Memphis but I’m still yawning, need to get a little more sleep.
It feels so good to get away from New Orleans. Everything about that life sucks.
