Today is taking some crap to Salvation Army and doing last minute cleaning. Then I’ve got to figure out how to pack 5 days of clothes into one carry on. ::sigh:: Air travel sucks SO BAD these days. I remember when it was fun. Yah, kiddies, it used to be fun! You could carry on two bags (plus a computer bag), you just walked right up to the gate with anyone you wanted to without a cavity search or dumb TSA people harassing you because they are stupid little people on a power trip. You’d get REAL FOOD on a flight if it was a long one. It was actually pleasant. I know it’s hard to believe, but it was. Now you are cattle herded onto overcrowded planes where you get pretzels or maybe a dried up sandwich if you’re really lucky while the babies scream and you try to find some air that’s not been breathed by 100 people. NOT FUN.
I think the con will be fun once we are actually there. I’m just not looking forward to the flight and all that bullshit. I’m really happy my obligations are done for the year. I don’t think I could stand anything else. This year has been a tough one – with the last two weeks being excruciating. Bah!
I’m thinking of putting our house on the market. Why not? If we can sell it, then we can buy Emily’s house. The mad scheme will not happen (the parties are balking), but that’s not stopping me from finding someone else to buy this place, yanno? We’ll see.
Ok, off to start the day. Wish me luck!
