On Vacation, Bitches!

Picked up my friend from a seriously delayed flight at the PHL airport at 2 a.m. Her baggage never showed, so she had to file a claim and we got home around 3:30 a.m. Left for the train around 7:00 a.m. So fuckin' tired. Connecting time at 30th street station for an hour and a half. Hopped on the megabus to DC. Megabus ride kinda blowed this time around. Annoying loud ass bitch on her cell phone sat behind me. Wish I had said something, but mainly knocked myself out on and off for a couple of hours of sleep.

Got to DC and then took friend out to the White House, walked through the Foggy Bottom campus, and then hit the Kennedy Center for a free tour. Ended up heading back to my other friend's place, ordered pizza and had a fun night in. Went for a late run to Vons for some provisions. Fired up the garlic bread, andouille sausage, and pie that we bought. Was yummalicious. Forgot how good those foods could be. So much of life is discipline most of the time - eating healthy, working out, moderation. Nice to have those days of total abandon to balance it out.

Friday - today. Woke up late and felt like I had the best night of sleep that I had in a long time - was so fuckin tired last night. Cannot last on three hours of sleep, goes to show.

Went to the Capitol, walked around the National Mall, ventured into the botanical gardens, and saw the Washington Monument. Was windy and got cold so hightailed it back to my friend's place. Checked some emails. Did some marketing research, checked the job boards. Watched DVD with friend from out-of-town.

Emotionally and mentally felt good to just GET THE HELL OUT OF THE HOUSE and AWAY FROM MY PARENTS.

Didn't realize how much I desperately missed, no, desperately NEEDED, my days of independence again.

Got a ton of sunlight today walking around the city.

That's right, world. Take that, economy. I'm taking a vacation while unemployed. Deal with it, bitches!

Total job applications: 1.

Total vacation days: 2 (yesterday and today).
