listening to: voltaire - almost human

craving: a raspberry-lime rickey

last night: last night was… a lot of things. i went to see the cell with draven, which was good, except that on my way home afterwords i went to get my metrocard and realized i didn’t have my wallet. i went back to the movie theater and talked to the door people and the concession stand people and searched the theater floor and the bathroom and everything but no luck. i know i had it when i went into the theater because i bought stuff at the concession stand with the money in my wallet. and i know i didn’t have it when i left the theater. so who knows.

so that was really stressy. i had an uncashed paycheck in my wallet, which was my rent money, and my driver’s license, meaning that pretty much any girl with brown hair can go cash my paycheck at a check cashing place. and not having my id is a huge pain - i’m supposed to go to michigan tonight, but i need a photo id to pick up my tickets at the airport. i’m not yet sure how i’m going to get around that - i have my old harvard id, but it’s expired. i’m hoping they’ll take it anyway. also in the wallet were three new metrocards, which is a pain because that’s worth about fifty bucks. i got paid yesterday, which is why all of this was in my wallet.

so i was in a panic for a while, but there’s not much i can do really. i still have my house keys and my phone and about ten bucks in cash. i’ve cancelled my bank card and my boss is going to try and put a stop on the paycheck if it hasn’t already been cashed. the id is going to be tough to replace since it’s a massachusetts id. but what can i do.

when i got home, my landlord told me a package came for me during the day. it contained flowers. so many flowers. jamar sent them and they’re beautiful - i have them all over my apartment now in cups and glasses and whatnot. all different types and colors and everything. i love them. they made me feel so much better. i spent about an hour cutting the stems and arranging them and finding containers for them and talking to jamar and by the time i was finished i wasn’t nearly so upset. so yay. and rex left me an adorable message on my answering machine. my friends rock.

estimated hours of sleep: five

so far today: had the hardest time getting up this morning. and then i had to find stuff to take with me to michigan - i just hope they let me get my tickets with my old id.

current plans for later today: my flight, if i can get on it, is at six. i have a stop in chicago where i catch another flight for michigan, where i arrive sometime around ten or ten thirty. bleh. too much time travelling.

what else: the person who has my wallet now needs to be very slowly and painfully killed. maybe something like the intestines bit from the cell. i don’t expect the money back, but the least that could have been done would be to leave the empty wallet with my id somewhere where it would be found. my id isn’t going to do anyone else any good but i really need it.
