Once, I was out with my boyfriend somewhere.

We were on I-80 here in Omaha, and we were going thru an area where there's lots of places to get on and off the interstate...lots of cars.

I was tired (insomniac) and I apparently fell asleep for about 10 or 20 seconds...woke up, saw a wall of cement on the side of the interstate and seriously thought we were about to hit it, and panicked.

Boyfriend gave me a hairy eyeball and looked at me sideways a lot that afternoon, and that was back when we had first started going out. So, at the time I couldnt blame it on the MS because I didnt know about it yet. (first big MS flare hit me 2yrs after meeting the boyfriend) I'm surprised he's still going out with me. The MS has made me have some weird reactions to being a passenger in a car.

I hate riding on the interstate. Constantly in a state of fear that the car is going to crash or a semi is going to squash us. When I'm driving, I do not drive the interstate at all, except maybe one stretch here in Omaha. Good thing I have a boyfriend who doesnt mind doing all the driving when we go places. (I help with gasoline at least for him.)
