fired up

it's been a long couple of weeks.

a. 8/11 - some asshole HIT MY CAR hard enough to knock off a piece of the bumper in a parking lot and didn't leave a note. price tag: $1,000. i hope the karma bus hits that person, backs up and runs him/her over again. what a dick.

b. 8/11 - foot x-rayed for potential breakage. (not related to the hit and run). foot not broken but hurts like hell. ice required.

c. 8/20 - suffered a horrific plane flight from PHL to LAX. most uncomfortable flight in a very long time. i was squished and thirsty. and i was in first. i wonder how people in coach survived. us airways sucks ass.

d. 8/20 - during said horrific flight, realized that i have flown over 1,000,000 actual air miles in my life. with no end in sight. almost vomited.

c. 8/26 - right now - TEXAS. need i say more? but i will ... read on.

d. 8/26 1:18 pm CST - pulled over by a TEXAS RANGER for doing 88 in a 65. Man, I hate getting caught. he asked me if i was speeding because there was an emergency. to which i replied, " i was trying to get out of East Texas as fast as I could, Sir." he was not amused. one of these days, i just might go too far.

e. 8/26 6:45 pm CST - taking on Marriott for not offering recycling bins in American hotel rooms. Marriott in Canada does it, why not us?

Saving Grace? Sophia is coming to visit on Friday.
