Super needs to never go anywhere. This only leads to suffering, like some gigantic karmic cactus placed unfortunately.

No, not like that. I figure that something like that would be in line for his luck at travelling is all. See Fnorder above.

I swear I'm not normally THAT pathetic.  I have literally seen just about everything that can go wrong (Besides for gettin on the second Sanfran flight) go wrong at the con, so yeah.

My arms hurt. My shoulders hurt. My back hurts. My feet hurt from running on bare stone after finishin recording Shale and OK's adventures into vampire LARPing. I'm not getting any sleep, my stomach hurts, I have a shitload of laundry to do, and I am gone!

Coffee sucks.  I stop drinking it for a few days, and then my sleep schedule gets all funky.  Hooray for passing out at 9 and waking up at 2AM.

At least you weren't stuck in Denver International Airport during a major blizzard a year and a half ago.

Our plane got stuck in a snowdrift that piled up while the airplane was grounded at the terminal. Said snowdrift accumulated in the span it took for the plane to de-board, be cleaned, and be boarded...i.e. about 45 minutes.

Nevermind that the rest of the Airport closed for 48 hours trapping tens of thousands of people it in (40,000 IIRC). Fun times.

Man, I was so close to being one of them, too.  I was heading home and they closed the airport right before my flight, which had a Denver connection, started boarding.

CT can't read the previous page. Did something else go wrong after the sea adventure? Apart from getting sick, aches and pains, lack of sleep and laundry?

What's with the Potter avatar? >.> That's the scariest thing I've seen in a while.

Dune is right. Just what *did* you do? Apart from wielding that whip like there's no tomorrow.

Going to Rockstar Mayhemfest on Saturday in the land of OK. Mostly going for Airbourne, Dragonforce, and Disturbed; other bands are mostly accessory to them. Going with aunt, uncle, and my best friend. Probably going to meet a few other friends from high school there. Should be good, horribly overpriced fun, especially since it's my birthday present over a month early.

Karmic cactus.

Super short version:

Left wednesday morning to go to the airport, got delayed an hour and a half, left, went to Newark, waited, waited six hours on the plane, flight got cancelled, waited in a mile long line/talked on phone for two hours to get another flight, the last 45 minutes being WASTED because I got the flight booked and the lady didn't tell me and just hung up/dropped my call in the back of the queue, took a taxi to Fnorder's, got there at 3am hung out and talked till 5am, got up at 11am, showered, packed, left, tried to catch bus, got flipped off,  called Fnorder, realized I couldn't read signs/follow directions since I was supposed to take the train, said I was fine (Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahhaa), lost my phone, swore up a storm, spent an hour looking for it, gave up, went to the train station, went to Newark, found out that my completely booked flight was cancelled thus making every single other flight to sanfran 100% overbooked, got a nearly useless standby ticket for one flight, waited in a 2000~ person security checkpoint to get my bags checked, sat in airport that had shitty AC, paniced, unpacked my stuff i the fulite hope my phone was there, lost my standby ticket (Goddamnit!), repacked, called Ciato who called Fnorder/my family, went to help agent, got another set of standby tickets/a promise about looking into it/shitty meal voucher,  got shitty smoothie, walked to the opposite end of the C terminal, sat down for literally 30 seconds, got paged, walked all the way back, find out that the lady HAD managed to find a seat for me, cheered, went over to tremendously shitty taco place, forced self to eat (Only ate a bowl of cereal all day) but was happy, tried to board plane, rejected, turns out plane was booked solid and my ticket was no good thanks to shitty overbooking, only one spot available, I pretend to have a breakdown to get that spot, get on plane, get to con, wait an hour at the airport, have to call poor Ciato twice to call Jenna to get me, go to Gate's place, stay up way too late talking to Gate and Tai, get almost no sleep, go over to the beachhouse, hang out, go to see the beach, try to look stylish and enjoy the ocean by dabbling my feet in, misjudge waves  and try to run backwards to avoid getting my top half of my legs soaked, fall, land on my ass, get my wallet/jacket (Elfboy saved my jacket with a helluva sprint into the water to get it back)/clothes, jeans gain 100 pounds in sand/water it feels like,  walk a mile or so on the beach (Forgot a belt, fail), climb a steep incline, get up it with Gref's help, get hosed off, borrow Gref's clothes, wash clothes, play games all day, meet with everyone, chat, gossip, eat, go pick up Ciato with Elfboy and Jenna in wet shoes, try to pass out, fail, end up gossiping with Gate/Tai,  go to bed, get up, enjoy saturday, am fine till sunday.

*BREAK*

Sunday I got sick from all the junk food I was eating, hung out, waved everyone out the door, talked with OK a ton on sat/sunday, talked with everyone but Cmdr in fact (Fail on my part, was sick sunday evening), didn't eat much, spent sunday night throwing up and unable to hold down anything, say goodbye to most of the group, sleep almost none, get up at 4am, die horribly, get up for good at 7am, see Elfboy/Ciato out the door, spend monday relaxing and not eating/drinking much, go to airport, things go okay, flight is short (4.6 hours), Meeple plays FFDS, I pass out for over half the flight, including an hour in the bathroom (Gooo me), the power of Meeple laughs at puny Aiel luck, flight gets there 20 minutes early,  don't get to say goodbye to Meeple at the airport thanks to having to go puke in the bathroom, wait over an hour to go, read Newark newspaper (Goddamn do New Jersey politics suck rancid acid) fly a propeller plane back home, limp home.

First day of the bar exam completed.

Pretty sure I nailed 6 of 9 essay questions, did decent on another, did poor/bombed the other two (as did everyone else though, Commercial Paper law FUCKING FAILS. OMG CHECKS ARE SO SEXY TO STUDY).

Other part of the exam was taking two 90 minute performance tests, where you have to read 4-5 fact based documents, read a couple of cases and statutes, then write some type of legal memorandum based on the law and facts presented. Fucking things were a nightmare, 90 minutes is not near enough time to write a decent memo. The good news is that everyone is killed by the time restraint, so I probably did average or better on those overall.

Hopefully my projections are right, 'cause if they are, I should pass with little problem.

Now time to rest in preparation for tomorrow's six hour multiple choice exam.
