Today has been one heck of a day, so far. I am nursing some crankiness right now because a huge wrench, named Charlie Sheen, has been thrown into my weekend plans. Charlie Sheen cannot ruin my Open Hearth Cooking class at Mystic Seaport!!! I doubt that sentence has ever been uttered...
It started off so promising too! I slept in a bit, packed my stuff for CT and made the most delicious smoothie...then I went to work...

At the moment, I am exhausted by my angst and worry.
As stated above, I am taking an Open Hearth Cooking Class at Mystic Seaport tomorrow afternoon (woohoo!) but am currently in New York wondering if I'll be able to catch the last connecting train to Old Saybrook tonight, because of Charlie Sheen's shenanigans. Normally I'd have no worries about making the train, but our deadline has been pushed back an hour past when my train leaves.
I've gone through all the backup plan scenarios and figured out by best plan B...but I am angry because it's not the way I want thing to go down. So I have a one-way ticket to resentment-town at the moment. And I don't want to stay there.
Plus side? I will still be able to take the class...unless it gets canceled for unrelated reasons.
Another plus side? I could go home tonight and watch my Netflix copy of Torchwood that should be arriving and finish putting my tax stuff together...
But right now, all I can feel is tired and upset...and anxious. It's like time is always my enemy and I have no control over my "free time."
So, what do I make of this whole situation? Have things been going a little bit too awesome lately and the Universe needed to balance me out a bit? Who knows. All I do know is that I don't like feeling tired from pre-worrying. Maybe that's the lesson here. What good is pre-worrying...something I'm quite good at (I've lost many a night's sleep as a result).
Yes...it will be a bummer to have to pay twice as much for a one way ticket on Amtrak as opposed to the Commuter Rail and I will have to deal with the crowds at Penn Station, but it will be a shorter ride and a cushier seat...
My anger has been fading as I've been composing this post...which is good. Now back to rolling with the punches as see what happens. After all, I still might be able to get to CT tonight.
Fingers Crossed! And stay tuned for my Open Hearth Cooking experience!
