i feel like i need to go to confession

so my sister called last night and wanted to go to see rod stewart ... we did it once before ... before we were married and she wanted to relive the experience.

so i got the tickets.

VIP packages were available. So I figured, what the hell.

so i felt a little bad about spending that kind of money on one evening. called joe and he said, "did you spend more than $1,000?" made me feel alot better. but i did spend more than $500 and i feel like i should go to confession.

hell

the last two weeks have been utter hell.

i really should have kept the jobs i once had where i could bullshit my way through them. but no, had to go for the promotion. and now, two years later, i'm still working my ass off ... pretty much unable to bullshit my way through my job.

and then the travel. i was gone 23 days out of 35. seriously, that is a beatdown. i've been home for a little more than a week ... but am still inundated at work, am working on my sister's shower and now my step-grandpa's funeral.

i hate being a grown-up.

the included picture really sums it up. this was yesterday after i dropped a glass in our kitchen. just when i was getting ahead ...

orlando, florida

i've been in orlando since tuesday.
not my favorite place. okay, i really hate it.

orlando can be summed up by a sign on saw on a local walgreen's.

"coca-cola - $X.XX
florida t-shirts 3 for $10
wonder bread $X.XX"

white trash tourists. oh yea baby.

prize from kristine

kristine brought me a special prize from the girl's bathroom during her daughter's first piano recital. she presented it to me during the intermission.

so i am doing the only thing i can think of to thank her. i made my prize into a envelope and am putting it into the mail. i hope it makes it. i'm sure the post office employees will get a good laugh out of this piece of mail.

absolute chaos

there are too many projects going on in my life right now. OMG.
