pre-travel stuff
Jun. 16th, 2007 12:35 pmSweet relief! I don't I've ever been so grateful to go to work today.
My mom is going crazy because we're leaving for New York tomorrow morning and she has to clean and shout at my sister and I to get things done, and I can't stand it when she shouts because it makes my teeth grind and my eye twitch. Plus, there's no reason for her to shout when I can hear her perfectly fine from downstairs. Add the shouting into my sister generally being an annoyance by messing with Mom's somewhat new cell phone and reminding me exactly what kind of fake Chanel purse I have to buy her all morning long makes me a very unhappy camper indeed.
I had a pounding headache by the time I left the house, which has thankfully calmed down now that I've taken some meds and the radio station is dead quiet - just the way I like it.
I don't know how I'm going to be able to put up with my mother if she's shrieky and panicky and...motherish all next week. Hopefully she'll calm down once we're on the flight tomorrow. (She refused to let me bring more than one book on the plane and she only expects me to only bring one journal, WTF?) She and my other aunts can be awfully annoying and naggy when they feel like it - good thing we're not dragging the entire Kennedy clan with us this time.
Mother's also not letting me bring my laptop because my uncle probably has Internet in his apartment. (She clearly doesn't understand the almost disgusting attachment I have with that device.) So I probably won't be online much, if at all, next week.
I should probably start working so I can get out of here at a decent hour and take a long nap. Our flight leaves at 5 AM tomorrow, so I'm thinking I'm just not going to go to bed at all. Which is probably a terrible idea and I will regret it when the jet lag finally catches up later in the week.
