The Great Escape

[catharsis_logs]

Things I need before I go:
1. My driver's license. NOT permit
______It's too much of a danger to go without my driver's license. I could be found out at any time, and also depends on how long I want to stay away. One flash of my id and I will one; be outed as female/possibly transexual and two; being obviously alone means that the great escape is over.

2. My medications.
______Bring at least a months worth of medications. This means that you wait until your medications are refilled. It might seem to be a long time to wait, but what's the other alternative, death? You can wait.

3. Comfy things to sleep in.
_____Bring your blanket (or several) and a pillow. You may also bring any stuffed animals you feel are necessary. You are going to be sleeping in the car after all.

4. iPod/iPhone car charger
_____I cannot emphasize ENOUGH that you need this. You NEED your phone, and you NEED your iPod otherwise you're going to go insane. You especially need your phone so that you can call if you're in trouble or just receive anxious guilt-inducing phone calls from daddy. (You might want to turn your phone off for a day and then when you've calmed down turn it back on.)

5. Books.
_____For entertainment. Come on, you're going to get bored at night. Come to think of it, take a flashlight. (for reading in the car)

6. At least $300.00 dollars in cash.
_____Make them all twenties. Get the money from a machine. Maybe make two trips and draw 200 dollars each time. That way you'll have a cushion of 100 dollars. DON'T draw money once the great escape has begun. The police can track you by money withdrawals. (and that's IF daddy calls the police.)

7. Clothes/Deodorant/Panty liners/Pads
_____Pretty much self-explanitory. You're not going to be at home and you're not going to go stay in a hotel. So, no showers. And driving all day makes people sweaty.
