One of those days........
Oct. 18th, 2004 04:40 pmGah. I've just returned from the city after one of the most stressful days in the last few months. There were no major crises or anthing like that, but it just seemed like every little thing that could go wrong, did.
1. My train got stuck in the tunnel for 30 minutes when I arrived in the city.
2. My favorite Chinese place had a supply problem and had to close for today.
3. My afternoon class, which is dependably short, ran long today because my teacher decided to go on an hour-long political harangue that had nothing to do with the class.
4. My train leaving the city was delayed 20 minutes, causing me to miss my connecting bus.
5. On said stupid late train, I ran into an old friend from High School. I had to listen to an hour-long political rant from HER on why I should vote for Kerry. Now, I'm still undecided, and I have a lot of problems with Bush. but her main argument was that "If Bush wins again you'll be drafted". Okay, first of all, Bush has said he doesn't support the draft. I'm not saying I believe him fully, but it shouldn't be put out there as fact! I'm going to decide based on the issues, not based on scare tactics. And If I DO vote for Bush, it'll be because I'm pissed at Kerry for using scare tactics. Oh, and as for the draft, I'm a bisexual with a heart murmur who's prone to panic attacks, severe allergic reactions, and has some mild hearing problems. Yeah, I'm sure Uncle Sam can't wait to recruit my ass. Feh.
So, after that fun-filled train ride, I had to walk a mile to the mall instead of taking a 5 minute bus ride. At least I was able to get on and post in my RPG, but I don't have time to intro my new chara today. At least tomorrow I have a midterm, so I know I'll be out early and have the whole day to myself. Yay for tests! I can't believe I just said that.
