oh, crappy day
ugh.
somehow i managed to lose my zipcard. so this morning at 11am, as sharon and i were heading out the door-- she on her way to work and i on my way to my voice lesson in wellesley-- i opened my wallet just to make sure it was safely in its rightful pocket and was met with the horrifying sight of an empty slot. FUCK. i haven't used the zipcard since the 5th, and that is just far too long ago for me to retrace my steps. that didn't prevent me from turning every pile in the apartment upside-down for 20 minutes while i panicked and screamed and berated myself. oh, wait, the whole place was already turned upside-down, which is why i couldn't find the fucking thing in the first place.
damn. so i had to call leslie and leave a pathetic message on her machine explaining why i would not be showing up for my noon lesson today, and of course i would still pay her and i hope she doesn't think i'm a huge flake (but really, how can she not?). and i had to call zipcar to report the lost card and find out what my punishment will be. "i realize i'll probably have to pay some kind of penalty for this, but i'm really hoping you guys won't kick me out over it!" i whined to the guy who answered the phone. now i'm waiting for a call back from alison, who is my zipcar hero, but it's been almost an hour now and i hope she hasn't forgotten about me. meh. so i wasted an entire day's reservation too, plus whatever fee i have to pay.
so yeah. today has begun with me getting all upset and blowing over $110 on absolutely nothing. so guess what i will spend the rest of the day doing? yep. finally cleaning up every shithole in this place. and you know i will probably find that damn zipcard somewhere really annoying, and then i will inevitably cry and hit myself repeatedly.
i was supposed to be doing reading deprivation this week, but has it actually happened? what do you think? right.
so since i'm wankering out on it this week, i'll post more later, when i need a break from cleaning and purging... i'd like to write about seeing blue goddess last night and also post a funny bus story that we promised jamal long ago. it happened on the 4th and is now long overdue...
