Worst Week Ever

[next_to_normal]

Ugh, I have had an unbelievably shitty week, mainly work-related. I have zero interest in rehashing the details, but suffice to say that I am looking for a new job even harder than I was before.

Also, remember how I was talking about a vacation? Well, I managed to find super-cheap airfare to Denver ($250 round-trip!) and my mom and I were planning a trip that involved a few days in the city and then driving around to the national parks and other fun stuff. I was excited! I ordered travel books from Amazon! But before they'd even arrived at my house, our entire plan had to be scrapped (part of the work-related shittiness of this week). So now we are back to square one and I am depressed.

If anyone is still paying attention to The Newsroom, have some links.

Also-also, meme. Snagged from aerintine:

Tell me which two fictional characters you think are my parents.

I would love to be a secret Bartlet! lol

Actually, at one point, I considered that Stockard Channing should play my mother in the movie of my life...

Oyyy, sorry about your shitty week. Hope the next week is infinitely more pleasant.

I think you're the child of Abed and Troy tbh.

Ugh, thanks. I'm not sure how next week could be worse (well, I suppose if I actually get fired instead of just threatened?), so here's hoping...

Lara Croft and Mario the Plumber. :)

Caveat: I know very little about your parents. But your mum seems willing to jet off to the most obscure parts of the world with you in search of adventure, and your dad, if I remember rightly, helped you fix up your new house before you moved in. So.

Hahaha, my mom is so un-Lara Croft it's funny, but Mario the Plumber actually works pretty well...

If it makes you feel any better, my whole Europe trip may be scrapped because of finances. That probably doesn't make you feel any better, but maybe we could commiserate together on our travel woes.

And I second Poco's Bartlett descent.
