Im over tired
Today just escaped from me. I didn't get as much packing done as I wanted, but I feel like Im racing to the finish too soon. Initially I had hoped to rent a van tomorrow and make a trip out to VA with the queen sized mattress and whatever boxes I could cram in, as well as White Paw kitten since Pax said he was lonely, but that is no longer an option. Rentals are at $42 and higher, I'd have to pick one up Saturday, pack it, drive 8 hours, unpack, and return the 8 hours to it by Monday and that still would cost $170+.
Im actually at a point in packing where I probably could be ready to fill the entire moving van come Saturday, but that wont work. So I will have to wait til next weekend and hope for help. Pax may be able to fly in, who knows... which leaves me here now, unable to pack any more tonight and feeling a bit overwheled. Im hoping that I can use this newfound free tme to see some people. Tomorrow I will have supper with my friend Mary and her fiance. I wish Saturday wasen't supposed to be crappy weather.
As I said before, I think Im overtired because Im awfully lonely. Today I searched for penpals on LJ. Im hoping that the prospect of snail mail will help ease the transition to VA. I've said it before, I miss real writing. I miss the anticipation of getting real mail. It be great to get letters from people across the globe and maybe make soem new friends. Something to look forward to perhaps?
Anger Management...NOT
In addition to this is today's epic stress. My dad was supposed to watch Lau (who was attached by lease to the couch) while I went out to get a pizza. When I returned I find him outside shoveling. Mind you this in itself is aggitating because he is NOT supposed to be shoveling post heart surgery, but it gets worse. I hurry inside to find the Lau has eaten an entire bag of chips that was within reach...AND WORSE! She stepped/knocked/beat up my laptop, knocking off some keys (luckily found) and actually damaging a small part of the screen.
The anger was epic!!! Less so after keys were reattached and I confirmed the machine actually turned on. Somehow I managed not to yell at my dad, I only sweared a bunch and Lau got crated so as not to fuel my rage. After my folks left I found myself absolutely filled with anger, which was partially vented out in the kidney post. Bonnie came over and when she does the dog always goes crazy and this time Lau knocked an ENTIRE glass of red wine onto my couch and floor. Again the anger, but this was a tired defeated anger. Its not been a great day to be Lau, though I bet she felt great eating my chips.
