For those of you still waiting for us to get sick of each other, today’s not the day either. But it is the day delirium sets in. Note: Day 8 - Delirium.
You might be asking yourself, how will I know if I’m delirious? Well, there are several telltale signs, like laughing uncontrollably and talking to the GPS navigator as if she’s a real person. (FYI, Her name is Cookie.) But I’d say the dead giveaway was when we started speaking all our conversations in the “Oprah voice.” I’m telling you, when all else fails and you can’t stand another minute of driving or sitting in line at a toll, shout all your questions and answers in the style of Oprah. It works wonders. WE LOVE IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTT!
NOTE: Since MB’s Oprah impersonation is far superior to Susie’s, I guess that makes MB Oprah, which makes Suz Gayle. After years of feeling inferior about her ability to do accents, she finally surpasses Suz. THAT’S FAN-TAAAAAAAAAASTIC!
Driving practically the entire length of New Jersey gave us ample opportunity to write a plethora of NJ jokes. We really don’t have anything against New Jersey, it’s just so easy to see where east coast comedians get their material. Here’s a sampling:
Susie: Ew. What’s that smell?
MB: Uh…I think it’s New Jersey.
$8.00 to cross the George Washington Bridge?!?! What’s that, New Jersey’s idea of the tourist industry? You gotta pay to get out?
Mmm, I love the smell of industrial waste in the morning.
Excuse me, ma’am. When is New Jersey over? I have to go to the bathroom.
Are any of you familiar with the New Jersey license plate? It looks like they plopped a giant turd smack dab in the middle.

Susie and Mary Beth,
Lisa and I have been enjoying your blog so far, but after this post, I have to call foul (ball...not smell).
As a native of New Jersey (Exit 4), I can assure you that the whole state doesn't smell...just the part that we send cross-country baseball tourists through.
Glad you are having a good time! Go Phillies
Hey You Guys, I have been loving your travel banter. I too have traveled through the great state of NJ, on my bike, and the only thing I can say is I was really glad to see the Atlantic Ocean.
Party on Girls,
A. Donna
PS, my little Yorkie's name is Cookie, so, MB the next time you yell at your GPS think of little Cookie.
