I swear my planning-fu has gone out the window.
A friend lost her husband unexpectedly in March. She's really been struggling so one of our mutual friends decided to fly out and help her out, and invited me to join her. So I got that squared away - We are flying separately but I timed my flights so that I can share her rent-a-car to drive from Co Springs to Pueblo where our friend lives. We'll stay with her. Friday (tomorrow) to Wednesday 5/1. I had kinda wanted to drive but the other person has fibromyalgia (? or something? ) and being in a car for that long would make her feel so bad she'd have to take a day of rest before and after the trip and she doesn't have that kind of leave time from work.... So, flying. bleh. not my favorite but necessities abound.
Unrelated to that, a friend of mine from the TinyTim days, Clint Weathers AKA Zenrhino on TinyTIM MUSH, AKA FrozenRhino back on LiveJournal, passed away a few months ago and his friends who were giving him end of life care are hosting a celebration of life on May 4. They also live in CO. a couple hours north of Pueblo but not an unreasonable distance of driving.
If my brain was firing on all 4s like it used to, I would have put these facts together before TODAY, and logistick-ed up a way to get to all of these things and back again in some tidy fashion. I just can't make it work. I dicked around with the southwest site and car rental sites and tried to make it squish together in my brain and moneys but it's just not working right. blehhhhh.
Oh, and I had a horrible migraine that started yesterday afternoon and finally let me sleep around 1 this morning...crazy sinus pain/pressure (I sometimes get them before a weather change/storm) plus hot/cold, nausea at any and all smells, vomiting, shooting pains up the back of my neck. I had to change clothes a few times and shower because I managed to sick on myself even though I made it to the toilet. And eventually I learned my lesson and put a rubber band in my hair. It is short but apparently not short enough when i'm doing exorcist style migraine barfs.
good god. My mom, aunt, and I think my younger sister all get them. My cousin on my dad's side, too. So I guess it was only a matter of time before I got one too. I seem to remember something similar, but not as severe, once in Galveston when we'd rented a house for a long weekend for Dickens on the Strand.
bleh. anyhoo....still unemployed but not too worried about it. the Universe throws things my way in a timely fashion. I feel like the Universe wants me to go to Clint's celebration of life goodbye party....I am facebook freinds with some TIMsters still but I am not close-close with any of them. I dunno. bleh. bleh.
