Go to hell, fate
Yesterday’s “highlights” included:
- My flight being delayed in Dallas
- Stephie’s car wouldn’t start, so she couldn’t pick me up from the airport
- American Airlines lost my luggage, and then the employees at the airport were less than pleasant
- We went gambling, and the idiots at the blackjack table gave me crap for surrendering when I had 16 with the dealer showing a 10 (to which I say "Suck on this, jackass").
- We tried to call a cab back from the casino and were told that Baton Rouge “isn’t like New York City, where there are subways all night” and that we should try back after 3am if we wanted a cab.
- I lost my string cheese.
So today I’m buying a 95 cent t-shirt from the secondhand clothing store while I wait for AA to find my luggage. But I worked my magic on the car, and we’re going out for sushi in a few minutes, so it’s hard to be too mad.

Man, that’s already five more stories than you’ve posted out of your trip here. I feel totally inadequate. Next time, I’m breaking everything when you get here. And starting a fire.
::HUG:: At least you showed up at the airport on the right day!

Jackass. <g> I’m in the middle of writing big, awesome stories about our adventures. I just forgot to put the pictures on my laptop, so I’ll post them on Wednesday when I get back. Until then, I’ll just have to read what YOU posted.
And yes, at least I did that. But I think that’s the thing that bugs me the most. This is entirely out of my control, ya know? It’s entirely frustrating.
