Haven't updated in forever
Sitting in the airport. My study is wearing on me. I'm #2 of 2 on the 1st class upgrade list. I'm really hoping 2 folks don't show up. I'm not in the mood to deal with coach.
But this stupid flight is usually sold out, so my hopes may be in vain.
I just got back from PTO and already feel like I need a break. Not good news.

Yanhe
My old boss sent me a sweet email. I love reading what he writes cuz English is totally not a primary language for him and his phraseology can be so cute and endearing. Such as "your job is good for when you are youth but I cannot believer you are travel so much"...see totally cute and endearing.
He recommended I get a new job. I agree. Especially ( Read more... ) -
Another exapmle
I scratched my belly because, well, it itched. My mom sees and tells me the reason my stomach itches is because I'm fat.
Cuz you know, it has nothing to do with how chronically dry my skin is from hotel showers, and hotel rooms with horrendous wall mounted ACs, and being in the super dry plane air all the time, and visiting the most arid of climes ( Read more... ) -
Grr
My mom promised several months ago not to talk about my 'weight problem'. She's starting to go back at it:
Saturday I was forced to sit in the Patio Chair of Doom. This chair is horrendous. It doesn't swivel and doesn't scootch backwards. Whoever designed it made the legs out of fiberglass or solid glue or something that basically it has 100% ( Read more... ) -
I rule at travel
I arrived yesterday for what was supposed to be a two day visit. The two days was cut down to one day sometime last week, when my study changed it's mind about site close-out visits. Originally, I was supposed to fly back tomorrow on the 845pm flight, but decided not to change that option when I cancelled the second day of my trip. I figured I'd ( Read more... ) -
Milk - it does a body good
I had such a jonesing for a glass of milk. But where do you go if you want just a glass of milk and, only a glass of milk? Usually I would say, open up the fridge, dipshit.
But I'm in a room serviceless hotel. And I was soo tired that I didn't want to leave and get in the car and find a grocery store and find a single serving sized milk carton and ( Read more... ) -
Idaho Falls
Think I like it here. It's a little like Fargo.
Took forever to get here; on top of everything else, my stupid plane was delayed about a half hour.
There was this little kid on the plane, about 2-3. Him and his dad were traveling together and had been flying standby since about 6am CST. And the little kid was being so good. And him and his dad were ( Read more... ) -
In keeping with tradition
I am posting from my hotel room in Denver. The AC is an individual wall unit, which is usually better than a thermometer controlled unit, but it makes a horrible squeaking noise. I plan on building up as much cold in my room as I can so that I can turn the unit off when I go to bed and, hopefully, not sweat myself into a dehydrated mess.
Haven't ( Read more... ) -
Back home
Had an interesting conversation with my mentor and another person in the mentoring program. They are in the opposite boat of thinking about my life-crisis situation. Perhaps it's because they don't know the true extent of my thoughts. They think I'm going through the transition from being overwhelmed by everything I have to do at my job to a much ( Read more... ) -
Just figured out how to add a subject
Posting from my iPod has injected new life into my LJ. I love that the iPod records and links the coordinates I posted from to my LJ entry so that you can get a street shot of the hotel I'm at via Google Maps. (Do it, it's fun).
My hotel suite today is just that, sweet. Three rooms, two queen size beds, two full bathrooms, a living room, a kitchen, ( Read more... )
