I do not hate flying.

I hate waiting for the other shoe to drop.

Right now, I'm nearly packed (a little bit behind schedule, but since that had two hours of padding in, I think I'll be all right) and I can't think of anything I've forgotten. I don't have my insurance card with me, but that's in the car, so hopefully that will be what goes wrong and I have to call my insurance agent to fax a statement that I am insured to the rental car place.

Because otherwise? Otherwise, my luggage will wind up on Jupiter. A distant second is that my plane will wind up making an emergency landing somewhere in Saudi Arabia, but the luggage is more likely.

I am too damn calm about all this. Something's gotta go wrong, and I don't want it to be my luggage.

Evidently I need to bring gloves. And a scarf. And a 55 gallon drum to make a trash fire in. How is it below freezing in Jersey/Philly right now?

God hates me.

This is why my luggage will next be seen by the Hubble telescope.

Oh, I know I'm in love with it. Jesus fuck. How is it so fucking cold? I am a delicate hothouse flower! I cannot cope!

Voluntarily, however.

Seriously, I cannot cope with snow. If it sticks in Philly, I'm totally just selling the car on the street and faking my death. I can't drive in snow, because it scares the bejesus out of me. Add to that how people in Philly drive (at least where I was, which, admittedly, was "ghetto to central Philly" and I am convinced I will die.

I don't know where you were, but since you were on highways the whole time, I don't want to hear it. :-P

Passyuk (I think that's right?) and Broad street are not highways.

Dude, you don't even have a car. Talk to the hand. Or, more accurately, talk to the rally-racers in your adopted city. And seriously, I love how "parallel parking" there is like "fling the car in the general direction of the curb and assume that wherever it stops is good enough. There are cars sitting in intersections!

Uhhh... are you sure you're not in Everett?

Not even in Everett do they park this badly. Trust me.
