What a trip!
Ok so I officially hate traveling!!!!
I just got back yesterday from a trip I took to Springfield Missouri for my cousin's wedding and our family reunion. It was a good trip I really enjoyed seeing my family, it was really good for me to be around them and just love on each other in all of our grief. It was a little overwhelming though because my family is so huge, we are big and loud and love to eat!
The only bad part of the trip was trying to get there and back. On the way there I had to fly to Denver and catch my connecting flight to Springfield, but my flight leaving LAX was delayed 3 hours. As a result I missed my connecting flight which was the last one that night. So the very terrible airline that I was flying, I will not mention the name but it is the worst one I am sure you all only need one guess, well they put me and about half of my flight up in a hotel for the night. That would have been ok but I was just so tired and out of sorts and just wanted to see my family so bad that it totally sent me off the deep the deep end. I broke down and sat on the floor in the middle of the Denver airport and cried uncontrollably. I looked mental, people were afraid to even approach me. But after a few pathetic moments of that I peeled myself off the floor and got in the shuttle, went to the hotel and passed out. Everything worked out I got to Springfield and all it was just a really stressful time. On the way back my flight leaving Springfield was delayed so I missed my flight again. But that was no big deal just got to stay with my family one extra night.
I love my family but man what an ordeal trying to get out to see them!
no more airplanes for me for a while.

Ahh I am temping right now at KAA and they got a new phone system and it is really confusing. I keep hanging up on people. Although one woman thought it was really funny and started laughing so hard on the phone that she told me she thought that she was going to pee her pants at work. It is only 12pm I have a feeling this is going to be a long day.

running from pain
So I guess I have been pushing back my emotional pain for quite some time now. I haven't cried about my dad in a couple days and I have actually felt like I am going to be ok. I got a great new job and I joined a gym and things seem to be going well. But it just kind of hit me today. I was working out at my new gym, which by the way is really cool, and it just sort of hit me. My dad is not here I can't tell him that I got a job or that I joined a gym or even see my new apartment. I can't tell him anything I can't hear his voice or ever get his advice again. God I just wish I could talk to him one more time. Hear his voice one more time see his face one more time, just one more time God Please!!!!!!!!!!! Why can't he just come back???? It all hit me like a tone of bricks right in the chest. It hurt so bad t felt lite I was having a heart attack. So I left the gym, which is in walking distance, and I started running, running so fast that I could hardly keep up with my feet. My legs were in so much pain and I could not even catch my breath and I thought that I just might projectile vomit right there on the street in front of my new apartment. But it felt better, even good compared to the pain that I was feeling earlier. It was only until after I got into my apartment that I broke down and cried. How messed up is that? I guess physical pain is easier to deal with and understand than emotional pain. I don't know. all I know is that this sucks and I need to find a way to keep going. "Just Keep a positive mental attitude!!" Shit! that is all I can say.
