Dear Bizi,
Poor kitty cat. She really needed you to be home!

Houston driving is tough even for people who live there. I think that you both did well.
Was Austin a fun town? I've heard that they have a good music scene.

Some people can turn a radio to static and get the same benefit as from as fan -- not sure that would work.
We sleep with a noise maker http://www.amazon.com/Marpac-980-Scr...2111112&sr=8-1
I would probably take this with me if I went on a trip.

I also bought at CD that sounds like a noise maker. But can't find it. I lost it in my messy apt.
(I live in an amazing apartment. Things go missing for weeks and months. Then they show up again. The CD is around somewhere.)

Thinking about traveling and staying in a hotel make me anxious.
I like my own place with my own stuff around me. Dunno why.

Anyway, I am glad that you had a fun adventure.
