so we flew back from ATL this afternoon. luckily we were seated in front of the three loudest, most obnoxious girls ever. i mean the "oh no you di-nt"s and the "girl, this feels like we on a rolly coaster!" were flying out faster than free beers at a frat house.. anyway the flight was only an hour, about 58 minutes past my tolerance level.. what got me was the one girl was complaining about having to go back to class on tuesday and her friends were sympathizing with the fact she only had one day to herself before "the tough stuff" started - at 9:45 am mind you. how much i wanted to turn around and say "please trade places with me!!" oh to be young and free of responsibility. to set your clock to only wake you for 'required' classes, to have the hardest thing you have to do this week is write a three page paper, to have meals ready and waiting in plethora at the local dining hall.
reminds me of this fabulous musical we saw here in raleigh a few weeks ago - Avenue Q. the opening number is called "it sucks to be me" - its hilarious. sesame street for adults - complete with useless college degrees, unemployment, the walk of shame- and other hit songs like "everyone is a little bit racist", and "if you were gay that would be ok".. really good stuff! oh and the landlord of this rundown apt building where all of these characters live is none other than gary coleman. love it.
