octette

i need a manicure.

i get on an airplane in, like, 13 hours, and i am not packed or anything. i have to take out the trash and change the cat litter. i did remember to have the post office hold all my mail. it is so strange that i am basically going to be away for an entire month.

i am pretty anxious about it.

actually, i am mostly anxious about leaving the cats in st louis for the 10 days while i visit my family and krista. once i come back, get the cats, and drive to new york, i think i’ll be less anxious. i hate leaving the cats alone, it makes my stomach sour.

i can’t decide what shoes to wear. i have my clogs, which are not good for walking, and i have sneakers — except no socks. i should have bought a bunch of socks while i was at target earlier today (buying cat food), but i forgot that i wanted to. now i am sockless. maybe i will shove my sneakers into my bag and buy socks when i hit the east coast.

i’m really bad at bringing shoes to places. i always think i am going to need three different pairs, but i only ever end up wearing flip flops. i don’t know why i think this time is different, the weather notwithstanding.

i haven’t been able to focus on anything today because i am so anxious about leaving the cats. and packing. i should have just packed my damn bag this morning instead of spending the entire day worrying about it. jeez.
