One Month

It's been a while since I've had the time and energy to put anything down. So I went to New York, saw some people, did some things, you know how it is. It was a good time. I remembered how much I like traveling. There's always something new to see or do that I won't be able to get anywhere else. So I spent the last week trying to catch up on my work and school, and being really overwhelmed.

I have a movie opening on Friday, and of course, there are tons of last minute details that drive me crazy, along with other people who are completely incompetent that drive me even crazier. And I'm supposed to be this pillar of control and aplomb or else it looks like things are falling apart. And I have to get ahead of what's coming next month and the month after. I'm going to be spending 11 days traveling next month in a foreign country, so I can't count on being able to take care of anything during that time. My flight gets booked tomorrow. There's a good chance I'll have a 9 hour layover in Atlanta if you want to come down and have dinner. It *has* been nearly a decade since you last saw me.

I'm also trying to get organized with school. I had a question for the professor and sent him an email about a month ago, and of course, he hasn't responded. It's like a disease with them. Like their fingers are broken or something. God forbid they should answer a simple yes or no question. And yes, I feel completely entitled to judge, because I have been a professor and I have answered questions for students. In fact, I make a point to answer their questions. It takes only a minute, and it helps someone move forward with what they're doing. In my case, I can't register until I get an answer, so I'm a little irritated about the whole thing. Especially since I don't really have time to hunt someone down and make a ton of calls just to get one questions answered.

Anyway, I think that's about the extent of my tirade for the day.
