Day 14

Happy Birthday Poopaw!

Today is weird. I have been on the road for two weeks now. Its pouring rain here in San Diego. I am only going to write in short statements.

Its about 10 til 4...I am writing from the hotel lobby this afternoon. The crew had to load in the set this morning, but we had to be checked out of our rooms by 1 so a couple of us took the shuttle to the local mall. I thought it would be better than sitting in the lobby all day. Well...I started out fine, happily browsing through the wide array of stores. But then I got hungry. It was down hill from there. I had actually started buying things, but then I was running out of time, AND I still needed to find shoes to match my purchases. I immediately had buyers remorse, but I think this was more due to the fact that I had an empty stomach. I don't know why shopping put me in a bad mood...the poor Chileans are trying to dig themselves out of rubble for heavens sake. Ok...perspective noted.

I did get to talk to my Daddy on his birthday. He was having lunch with my mom and some dear family friends. It made me a little homesick. I wish I could be with them celebrating and chasing my nephew around. It did make me thankful for cell phones though. What did we do before them? Technology has not been on my side lately though...ever since I arrived in CA my phone has been on the fritz AND my computer has been running really slowly. Sometimes I want to just take them both and smash them over the hotel balcony. But then I would cry...without the internet I am a little lost unfortunately. And without my phone? I don't even want to think about it. Well, maybe if I had all my loves around me I wouldn't mind ditching the gadgets...but they are my window to my favorite people.

Ok it looks like I need to start loading up all my crap. I mean, my stuff. Poopoo peepee! I need to snap out of it jeeze louise!

Ok...more later I suppose.
