Rants Today is another traveling day. My mom and I took a flight to Phoenix, AZ, where the temperature was 105 degrees. People have told me dry heat is not as hard to deal with, and they were wrong. I felt like I was in an oven the moment I stepped outside.
My mom and I got into another small and petty argument at the Phoenix airport. All of a sudden she said, “Why do you look so bored and depressed all the time? Can’t you just smile for once?”
To which I told her, “I’m always smiling… when I’m actually happy. If you want me to pretend, I can. But I‘ll do a shitty job at it.”
Of course she throws a fit at my statement. She demanded to know why I was so unhappy.
I asked her why I should be happy. I’m on a trip that I wasn’t told about or even consulted. I was still sick and I would get even worse because of the trips. I’m on trips constantly when I’m having to deal with personal problems. I can’t communicate well with my agent when I’m overseas and I barely just got a positive response from one. Did I need to go on? I didn’t think so.

Rants I hate my uncle’s wife and my cousin‘s wife.
Both of them love to judge me. Who are they to do that? I’m so mad at them both. I’m not their family, and I’ve made it pretty clear to them. I guess I struck a soft spot. I don’t care. I just don’t.
My cousins took me to go eat lamb-kebob’s earlier, and they were so good!
I don’t really have much to write about. It’s been a boring couple of days. I started watching Heroes again, on episode 21 already. It’s addicting all over again, and as weird as this sounds, Sylar is such a good character. I always like the evil ones, it seems.

Rants Well, when I get there , I wanted to talk to her but all I got was a greeting and a hug. Then she went to spend time with her kid. She then proceeds to ignore me the rest of the night. What the? She also won’t be back tomorrow either. This is just great. There is nothing, and I mean nothing I hate more than being ignored by somebody I care about. I’m sure the kid is important. Heck I brought him a gift I spent an hour in line to get at the Bird’s Nest. But how often does she see the kid compared to me?
I’m jealous of a kid, so sue me. Whatever.
I need stress relief really, really bad now. I was about to blow. I told my mom this and we decided to go to the hotel early so I can sleep it away.

Rants The drive was insanely frustrating and lengthy. Think of it as watching a hundred cliff hangers for a really good TV series. I don’t think we were going faster than 30 miles per hour at any point in time, and the sun was in my face as usual (do I see a pattern here?). But worst of all, the driver smoked the whole time and had his window open. Let me tell you, it did not smell or sound pretty outside. I hate secondhand smoking so very much. At this point I’m already annoyed and pissed. PMS probably doesn’t help my case.
Anyway, I was still able to keep my cool then. I listened to my iPod and enjoyed the scenery outside to pass time. And then it happened…
Ahead of us, on the other side of the road, was a burning oil truck. There was a grassy median in the road, so it was no big deal. It didn’t burn as badly as the 18 wheeler we saw when we drove from Gainesville to Houston a month ago or so.
The driver apparently thought otherwise, because he slowed down to check out the truck, when obviously the smart thing to do was to drive faster and out of range in case the truck exploded. But nooooo…
