Airport drunk

I'm in a a bar/grille in the Salt Lake City airport trying to get trashed. I'm impressed that they actually put more than a drop of alcohol in this drink because everything else I've had this weekend has been really lame. I mean, they tasted good, but they were weak and therefore lame.

My flight is delayed. I just want to go home and see my kitties. Today has been long and terrible. It hurts to see my friends in so much pain. There's just too much going on and I can't take it well.

The Emmy Awards are on tonight and guess who won't be watching that trash? This girl right here! I was exposed to about an hour of the pre-show and I wanted to die every minute of it. Sick. So sick. Yet I can sit through the same episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians like 10 times? That makes perfect sense.

My camera died today. I loved you, Elph. Why did you have to die on me?

Jet plane

Wow, I'm going to be doing a lot of traveling in the next 2 weeks.

8/26 - 8/29: Salt Lake City
9/2 - 9/4: Illinois
9/8 - ?: Miami

That's a lot of flying around in such a short period of time!

C'mon, sleep

Sleep, quit being a douche to me. You have failed me 2 of the past 3 nights. Just quit it, because you're embarrassing yourself!

Cities

On Thursday I'm going to Salt Lake City to visit friendlies. I'm excited!

I am looking at a "spa" (haha) in south Miami now. Please cross your fingers and toes that my insurance will cover it...

Medical leave

So I'm not gonna lie...things sort of suck. I'm on my second medical leave in 2010 and this one promises to be a doozy. It may include having to ship my dog to Illinois, send my cats to live with a friend, and me going to Utah to a um, "spa" for several weeks. Looks like I'm not going to make the fall quarter for school either, so winter it is. That's probably good. There's too much going on that leaves me ill prepared to start school in just a little over a month.With things the way they are, it's just not going to happen. Oh well.

I need to get on track and get things in order so I can be ready for school, so I can completely absorb myself in it. I'm looking forward to a time when I can say I'm confident that I can do that.

So I can come back all... RAWR!!!!!!!!!!!!

Leaving

• Close down support queue
• Set up auto-response for work mail to say I'm OOO
• Email benefits team with doctor's note
• ...Leave.

Crazy

The craziest shit is happening now. Wow.

Empty

Something has left my life
And I don’t know where it went to
Somebody caused me strife
And it’s not what I was seeking.

Didn’t you see me, didn’t you hear me
Didn’t you see me standing there

Why did you turn out the lights
Did you know that I was sleeping

Say a prayer for me
Help me to feel the strength I did
My identity, has been taken
Is my heart breaking on me

All my plans fell though my hands
They fell through my hands on me
All my dreams, it suddenly seems
Empty

Pulled over

I've been pulled over twice in the past two weeks. :( Neither cop said, "do you know why I've stopped you?" which is a total bummer because I wanted to use Sarah Silverman's line:

Cop: Ma'am, do you know why I pulled you over?
Sarah: You got all Cs in high school?

HAHA. I took the first ticket with no problem, because I knew I was speeding. It was fair. But this ticket I got in San Francisco was ridiculous and the cop was such a dick to me. He gets up to my window and accuses me of trying to kill people. Says that I went through a red light. I said, "What?! No I didn't!" and he snapped, "Give me your license." I'm contesting this crap! I don't care if I'll most likely lose -- it's the principle of the matter.

I was going to go back to the craft fair again today but after that (that was just the last straw of the frustration experienced that day) I decided there was no way I could go back up there today. Grrrrrrr. I'm so annoyed.

So instead, I'm doing a million loads of laundry (which really needs to be done).
