I'm going to England!!
What with the fare wars going on, I asked my Mom to called Travelers's Advantage (they get you the best price, and then give you a 5% refund after the trip) to see what they had. She called me back and told me that if I completed my trip by 31 May it would only cost $288, on ANY airline! Now, I am seriously in love with Virgin Atlantic (best airline in the world), and it's usually like $800, so it was really too good to pass up.
The problem would be getting out of work...
I've just taken off so much time with my Da and all, that I didn't know what to do, so I asked John, who agreed that it was tricky, but maybe if I told them that I had to go back to LA to settle the estate...
Genius!
So, In May, I'm going to England and staying with Greg and Elaine (one hopes, I haven't asked them yet) and seeing theatre and buying books and telling BIG LIES at my job!
Don't tell...
Before the whole England thing, however, I was in a VERY BAD MOOD, because it was Diane's birthday today, and everyone in the whole office, practically, went out to lunch together to celebrate, except for...
ME!
Now I realize that somebody has to answer the phones, but still, I was very hurt.
One of my best friends in the world is Joe Quinn, who moved to Maine about a year and a half ago, and how many times has he written to me? Ten million. How many times have I written to him. Zero. I am clearly a VERY BAD PERSON.
And the worst part about it is that every time he writes to me, he NEVER MENTIONS the fact that I don't write to him ever, which is incredibly passive-aggressive and makes me feel MUCH GUILTIER than if he gave me a hard time.
So, on Thursday I got another letter, and I sat down yesterday and...wrote a long letter? Nope. I wrote a short note and printed out this site.
I figure it's the best way to not only show what I've been up to, but it's already written in a fairly entertaining way, so why write it all again?
Remember Austin? The best writer NOT keeping an on-line diary? Well, he has succumbed to peer pressure, and started one! Go see it!
