How I spent the last 36 hours of my life

[constance]

1. Being told I was eligible for a promotion, which I will be interviewing for tomorrow morning. (If I get it, it will mean I will be phased out of travel!!!!!!1)


2. Being sent on a last-possible-second trip, rushing home to pack and bring dog to boarders, getting on the road.


3. Driving for four hours through Atlanta rush-hour and the North Georgia mountain backroads in twilit driving rain with my mother sobbing to me over the phone until my signal faded completely. (FUCK YOU SPRINT. FUCK YOU I SAY.)


4. Spending the night with an Indian family in their hotel, smelling Indian food through the walls and knowing that the food was not for me.


5. Working for six hours, then driving for four more, back home, again in driving rain, and arriving about half an hour too late to pick Flan up at the vet.


6. Collapsing on bed for an hour.


7. Deciding that the enormous tension/anxiety/exhaustion headache I have going would be alleviated only by judicious application of chicken nuggets from Popeyes and a fruit and yogurt parfait from McDonald's (yes two fast food restaurants in one night shut up okay) and about two extra hours worth of sleep.


8. Talking to Coco! And Keri! :D:D:D:D

I bet you wish you were me! Oh, my glamorous, glamorous life.

On the other hand, the chicken nuggets and yogurt seem to be working their magic. I am a simple soul, you see.

Except for the part where your phone cut off and you drove in torrential rains, of course.

Two fast food restaurants AND NO SONIC?!?! Unimpressed, man, unimpressed.

Good luck tomorrow!! I hereby transfer any positive birthday karma to you for the morning. I'm totally keeping all afternoon and evening karma for myself, though.

Your good luck karmic transfer seems to have worked for the job thingy! I will be tranferring into the office soon! :D:D:D:D:D

And if it is any consolation to you, I had just had a cherry limeade for breakfast that morning! I do not believe even I could do Sonic more than once in one day. I'd just be embarrassed.

*buys everyone on LJ a virtual round of cherry limeades to celebrate*
