Five hours. It took five hour to travel a distance that normally only takes 3. Worse yet, the speed limit for most of the trip has been raised by five miles. Worse, worse yet the first big city, Temple, which is about an hour away from Austin, took 2 hours to reach. I was starving when the trip started. Five hours later my stomach was just an aching pit, where it is going to stay until tomorrow morning because I can not bear to fill up before falling asleep as that is always bad news for me.
I want to blame whoever didn't let us leave early. Whole teams were able to leave before we did and I was sitting around doodling for a good hour and a half before we finally got to leave at 5. It was the definition of ridiculous. It also prevented me from meeting a potential housemate. That is actually not bothering me as much right now because I am too tired to contemplate meeting people, but at the time I was pretty pissed off.
Now I am fighting to stay awake. My hair is wet, my clothes are in the washer and dryer...yeah, I think that is it. I am not processing that I am here very well. I will not be doing that shit again. I was in the middle of it and talking to mom on the phone and I told her I would have rather woken up crazy early, like 4 am, and drove in. I will do that for Christmas, and probably Sunday when I go back. I am not capable of braking that much and not wanting to shoot things and people and self.
