Oh thank God, a computer. I am in the complimentary breakfast room at my hotel, and I would just like to point out that I have received not one compliment yet, so hmph, and I saw these quiet little computers back here smiling at me and you could not have made me happier had Barry Gibb been lounging in my room when I checked in last night.
I just noticed someone printed out do-it-yourself marriage dissolution guidelines on this printer. Things are going well for some poor soul at this hotel. Maybe it's Barry Gibb!
Anyway, Paula is doing well. It looks like everything went like the doctors thought it would and she will not have to have chemo, so yay. So all your thoughts and prayers just might have helped. Go blog!
My flight was the longest flight on earth. Why does America have to be so big? Greensboro to Seattle is a long damn-ass way. Fortunately I sat next to a cute young boy who had never been to Seattle before, so as soon as we got over it, I started pointing things out that he probably couldn't see and he was probably so over the ancient hag who kept tour guiding him and trying to seduce him.
Hi, Marvin! Trip's going well!
Mt. Rainier was out yesterday, which was great and does not always happen, but guess what?
I am so not a big-city person anymore. I have become the country mouse. All this fast-movingness and people driving up right behind you, and parking is REDUNKULOUS, and I totally got LOCKED in the parking lot at the hospital where I was visiting Paula and had to sleep with the security guard to get him to open the gate.
Hi, Marvin! Trip's going well!
So today I am leaving the car HERE at the hotel and taking the bus downtown. I already called my old boss and am going to pop in on her before heading over to the hospital where I will tell Paula all about how hard everything is in this city, and have I mentioned what an annoying friend I am?
It's good to be back in my old city; it looks a lot the same, which, what did I expect, that they'd move it off the Sound or something? The only thing is, it has gotten fancier. Like, there used to be this car wash, and it had a giant pink neon elephant for its sign, and the elephant is gone and there are big sleek condos there now. Also, I am not certain this is g0ne, but there used to be this giant lit sign for the gas company that frankly looked like a sparkling spinning labia, and in my exhaustion from traveling nine hours and sleeping with two strangers and being in a big city and traipsing through a giant hospital, I did not see it.
See you soon, Marvin! There are some marriage dissolution papers here, if you just wanted me to go ahead and bring those home.
