Vortexia's Secret

well, almost. ok, i have to keep this quick because i have to pack still. my entire schedule was wiped out today practically. it was actually a great thing because as i was walking out the door i decided i should grab that take home exam to work on just in case i had a spare moment. i thought i had remembered that i would have maybe an hour free, so i decided i could be productive. well thank goodness i did! after working on it for 6 hours or so, i had only made a small dent in it. i have promised myself that i won't kill my prof, but i was definitely tempted.

on my way home i ran by the store to get a few things for the trip tomorrow. one item was a PM pain med in hopes that taking a half dosage would make me feel kind of copacetic for the trip. so i get it home and read the label to see if i have to cut a pill or take one for a half dose. happened to notice the expiration date... it was june 2004. that's just great. bought brand new stuff and it's already nearly 4 months past the expiration. i hope they know that isn't legal or sanitary or something. i considered taking it back, but it would have been such a pain in the ass because i got it at a store that's off an extremely busy street and it took a good 10 minutes to get out. i figure they probably put a cushion on the expiration date for at least a few months, so i think i'm probably safe.

anyway, now i'm packing, studying this exam to decide if i need sleep or progress more, and thinking that if i have to get up early to take the trash all the way to the dumpster (i missed curbside pickup- running late this morning) and haul luggage to the car then the sleep will prevail.

sometimes i really wish i could reveal some things about my supervisor here. she's a riot. she's in control and manages chaos well, but sometimes she makes you cringe a little that one of the balls she's juggling is going to get dropped. then she also will say something on occasion that makes you do a double take. like something about sexual hygiene or something totally random. it's great, but i think it would be a violation of trust if i shared it. so at any rate...

i think this will be it, mi bebes. i wake up, go to work, drive all the way to my parents' house straight from work during the middle of rush hour (not a quick drive by any means), run in, change out of anything that could contain metal, dump luggage from one trunk to the other, and run to the airport. no biggie. not at all. so there will be no post tomorrow, and probably not at all this weekend. why? because i'll be having more fun than you! hahahah. oh but it's true. i may have to pack a camera just for a little photo documentation. i know somebody will be up for some incriminating photography. more of it, that is! muahaha. ok, time to go! adios y besitos!
