Cracking Facade



Cracking Facade
9-25-11

Wow, let me tell you that waking up in the morning to explosive head pain is not the best way to do things. Now, it’s exponentially worse when you’re in a dead sleep, in a different town, and you only went to bed a few hours before. Then, when the pain lingers long after and you have things to do that make it impossible for you to take a pain pill that would leave you loopy, well, you almost have the perfect recipe for one epic morning. The one thing that you’re missing is lack of internet connection. I mean, light sucks no matter what you’re going to do, so you might as well fuck around on the computer, right?
I have no internet connection and I am alone far from home. Well, that’s not entirely true. I could surf the net on my phone, but I don’t feel like squinting at the even tinier screen on my phone. I only brought the netbook with me, so it’s not like I was planning on doing a whole lot in the way of watching netflix or anything. The speakers aren’t really even good enough to listen to music with, but I don’t feel like being in silence, and I sure as hell don’t feel like wearing ear phones.
We are driving back home today, and I forsee me having to wear them for several hours in order to stay even marginally sane. Four adults packed into a Cadillac. There are worse cars to be packed into I suppose. The vehicle that we had last trip up north comes to mind, however I cannot do this being squished in the back seat thing again. With everything else going on in my life I don’t have enough spoons to deal with this too. In fact, I am operating on a negative daily spoon allotment and have been for quite some time.
I am not nearly as okay as I have been pretending to be.
