i’m leaving for melbourne today. this has been such a short trip to LA and an interesting one. the airline or security busted one of my suitcases (w all the shoes) and broke some of the stuff inside. wonderful. and when i got to BWI, i found out i’d have to pay for the extra baggage twice (a domestic rate & an int’l one because my stop in LA was more than 4 hrs). since they broke the bag i decided to mail the stuff to myself but that ended up being only slightly less expensive than taking it on the plane w a new suitcase. i hope it all arrives. moving to australia is a LOT more expensive than moving to london. (duh)
had dinner w some transplanted friends last nite @ this greek place in long beach which is really good (though the service sucked last nite). i have a list of things i need to do today though i feel like if i dont get to it, oh well. i didn’t want to sleep last nite, wanted to be good & tired for the airplane but i finally went to bed at 5a PST. wanted to sleep 2 hrs tops but it was 4. i feel like i should run around the block or do something to tire me out. i have melatonian but that only goes so far on a 17 hr flight.
