Rants

January 29, 2009, 7:20 pm...

According to my original plan, I would have been about 2 hours into a flight to San Francisco en route to my Australian/Fijian vacation.  Obviously, plans have changed, and I'm not exactly happy.  Everyone tells me, "Everything happens for a reason...".  While that may or may not be true, I'm still pretty pissed off that I'm missing my trip.  SO...allow me to rant about:

Things That Annoy Me

Ice
-Ice and crutches DO NOT mix.  It's slippery and dangerous and it takes me forever to get anywhere.  

Puddles
-It's impossible to "crutch" through one without getting my good foot soaking wet.  Wet socks are my pet peeve.  

"There Are Worse Things..."
-When you are clearly annoyed or upset by a situation, sometimes you just want to vent.  There are always those people who say, "Well, there are worse things that could happen...".  OBVIOUSLY.  I know that, but sometimes we all just need to bitch.  I get that there are worse things that could happen, but I don't want to hear about those things right now.  

Lack of Mobility
-If I need to run to the store, or mail a letter, or grab a newspaper...I want to quickly be able to do that.  Right now there is no, "quickly" anything.  

People Without A Clue
-If someone is standing at a bar, on crutches, with a drink in their hand, looking uncomfortable...offer them a seat!

Just a few things I needed to get off my chest.  Now I'm ready for a great weekend.  Considering I HAD been planning on spending this weekend on the beaches of Sydney and instead I'm snowbound in Southie...it better be great.  

In health and with respect...
