Miz. Grumpy Gills

That would be me. I was a grump today. (Sorry, my bookstore peeps!) I was tired and hungry and not feeling well all day. Plus, I scraped my knuckle on the wall and it bled. And it's still open an open "wound" and it hurts. Stings when I wash my hands. *pout* I want to go sulk about it...but I don't have the energy.

After work, I packed my overnight bag and then hit the bus stop. Had to wait for seemingly forever before the right bus came. When I transferred buses, it seemed like "wash, rinse, repeat" and then I had to wait at the ferry as well. Am I supposed to be learning patience, God? Maybe so...but it kind of ticked me off. I usually don't mind waiting for buses and ferries, but I was tired and hungry and cranky by the end of the day and being in transit for a little over two and a half hours when I needed food didn't help. I ate a Twix in Fauntleroy to tide me over, but the sugar only made me feel gross.

Oh, and I've been having weird guys looking at me. I don't like it. In the airport in Seattle, all these weird guys kept giving me weird looks that, frankly, weirded me out. Same thing at the ferry terminal in Fauntleroy. I DON'T LIKE BEING STARED AT BY WEIRD MEN!!!! It freaks me out! So stop! Or I'll be forced to carry mace! And YOU DON'T WANT THAT!!!!! Okay, I'm fine now. No, I lied. One more thing. Who the flip kept honking at me on the dock?! I'm not paranoid, but after yesterday evening and this evening, I want to start darting from hiding place to hiding place just to avoid the unwanted attention. I mean, really, what the heck is going on?! *CHOICE WORDS* Seriously disturbing.

Anyhow, I need to wake up early for an orthodontist appointment tomorrow morning. :( However, good things are coming from this. 1) I get new jeans out of the deal. (Score!) 2) I get a new retainer that's NOT falling apart. 3) I get to go back to work later in the day. I know, I'm lazy. Maybe I'm just bored. Bored sounds more ambitious. ;)
