Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Y'all have guilted me into walking home from work today.

I miss walking home over the Brookyn Bridge.

Levenger is a great idea. I had thought of Timbuk2 as I am a fan girl - he's looking at those now.

Good place to get "a fashionable 'business tote" that can hold papers/pens/folders/phone/calculator junk . and even a laptop" for a 30 year old female?

You can actually usually find a few decent ones at Target, surprisingly. They're fairly businessy, and usually have a padded sleeve or compartment for the laptop.

I am at the airport. I am REALLY wanting to be home. But the trainer forced us to stay until 3:30, so there was no way I could get on the earlier 4pm flight and home by 7:30. Instead, I got to the airport at 4pm. There was a flight at 5:30, but it ended up full. Grrrr. And now I'm waiting for my 6:30 flight...which is late...I swear, if I end up spending the night in Chicago, I may have to hurt someone. I am SO READY to be HOME.

So ready to be home that I double posted, apparently...

meara, if you do get stuck here, let me know! I've got a bed you can use (I usually end up sleeping on the couch anyway), and I'm only a 20-minute drive from O'Hare.

Aww, thanks Kathy! The good thing IS that I know lots of people in Chicago that I'd be happy to have dinner or a drink with....I just realllllly want to be home in my own bed.

Can you get to your e-mail? I can send my phone number to your profile addy if you do end up here overnight.


meara - Apr 30, 2008 1:38:51 pm PDT #4397 of 10001

Yes, thank god, I've got a new cellphone-broadband card for the work computer.

I think right now they're anticipating us getting in twenty minutes before the other flight takes off. Maybe. Right now we dont' have a plane. I'm just saying, they SHOULD"VE put me on the earlier flight...

My phone number's on its way to you now.

Like I said in the e-mail, I hope you do get home tonight, but if not, I'd love to see you!
