Fast Forward

Do you ever feel your life is moving in fast forward? That describes my week. My head is pounding even as I write this. If the world would just slow down for a moment, I would like to get off for a little rest.

I just came out of my Investments midterm. I was fine with the calculations part. I had the formulas, all I had to do was plug and chug. No problem. Unfortunately the last two problems were True False or it depends and I had to write a one sentence explanation for my answer. HA!!! I can't explain this stuff to myself much less to another human being. But I guess I know what I will be working on for the final. I got to those questions and I just wanted to say, just give me my B and let me go!

Now I am in the computer lab and writing this but will be finishing my paper for my next class in a few moments, because that didn't get done because I was learning to plug and chug and not explain....stupid miscalculation there!

I am only going to the first half of my next class so that I can get to the airport in time for my flight. I have decided I need to allow for more time because the car rental place that will never get my business again is almost as inept as the airlines. I'm going back to Hertz, expensive or not. My time is worth a lot of money to me. I have to remember to call Short's on Monday and have them change my car rental reservation for next week.

O'Hare...I love O'Hare, but not last night. It took longer for my bags to get to the carousel than it did to fly from Cedar Rapids to Chicago. It was ridiculous. I think the baggage handlers stopped for coffee and drank it over a game of cards using my bag as their table!

Aileen is trying to be more positive in her blog, I probably should be too, but I think I may need to get a job that doesn't require me to fly before that will happen.

Off to Europe later today...Dolce Beijos
