I had a really lousy day yesterday. I had looked up flights on Thursday to see if there was an earlier flight I could take to get home on Friday. I figured I would just hop stand by or pay for the change at the airport. What I didn't know was that Burbank has different schedules M-Th than they do on weekends. Noise ordinace rules say that they can't fly as many flights early in the morning on weekends. So instead of six flights to PDX, on Fridays there's only 2. I sat at the airport from 3:30am until 11am because on top of everything else, my flight was delayed 30 minutes. I wish I could tell you some exciting story about my 7 hours of waiting, but alas, no. I sat. I waited. That's the story.
I did get a phone call from my boss right before boarding though. That was lovely. Those fuckers I was doing work for decided to go whine and cry and say I was 'too inflexible'. I'm not inflexible, I just know my job and how to teach a lot fucking better than you all do. I know what works for students and what doesn't. This is why I fucking hate custom work. Technical people trying to tell me how to teach. Go away. I managed to keep my cool and speak with him on the train ride home.
By the time I did get home it was 3:30. 12 hours later. When I got home it was a whirlwind - laundry, bills, mail, dinner, woosh.I really didn't get a chance to sit down and relax until 7pm. Just so many little things to do. I am still not 100% repacked. Mostly, but not completely.
We did say fuck it and watched a movie last night. We watched the new Jumanji which was pretty good. It was a sweet movie that was much better than I had expected it to be. I recommend it.
Went to bed around 10:30. I need to check in for my flight at 6, then off to the grocery store. Need to repack fully today, clean the aquarium, and go to bed at 7pm. Fun times.
