I am madder than a hornet's nest. My little sister is going to regional rock climbing comp this weekend. We have been planning this for months. I even requested this Friday off because it's an eight hour drive. In winter. Through a pass.
Her mom just informed me she thought we were leaving after work. She scheduled their state licensing inspections for Friday. God. I am so mad I can hardly see straight. I hate driving at night. I will be so sleepy by then it will be dangerous! The roads will be so much worse at night. I also have poor night vision. There will also be less traffic on the road if we did get into trouble. Frankly I just want to tell her to take a flying leap and that I am leaving in the morning. If she still wants to come she can drive herself later. What the hell was she thinking? Who the hell leaves for a full day's drive at the end of a work day in the middle of a very rough winter?
I know I've mentioned several times that I took the day off since it's an eight hour drive! She does crap like this all the time. Changes at the last minute and the rest of us just have to do it her way no matter how it inconveniences us. As usual she gets her way. Gack. I need a chill pill. I'm going to bed.
That I have had before / But did not finish, - some way back, / I could not fix the year, / Nor where it went, nor why it came / The second time to me / Nor definitely what it was, / Have I the art to say. / But somewhere in my soul, I know / I've met the thing before; / It just reminded me- 't was all- / And came my way no more. ~Emily Dickinson

Going over to the Dark Side
Well, it's finally happened. Ver.i.z.on has the i.Ph.one. And I'm seriously considering buying one. I'm eligible for the new-every-two program in June. I could upgrade now without any fees, and not have to pay full cost. But am thinking of waiting until June. Then applying that $50 credit. Unless they'll give it to me now.
Unfortunately that means I'll have to upgrade to a "real" data plan. So. Do I really want to pay that extra $29/month? Not really.
But I'm tired of carrying a phone and my iPod. Combining it into one would be lovely.
And I've been seduced by A.ppl.e's touch screen. I have yet to try any other maker's version that I like as much.
Ah, well. I'll just enjoy this jaunt to the Dark Side. [g] Who knows? Maybe I'll run into Lu.ke Sk.y.walke.r while I'm there!!!!
