up and down week

 went to visit my best man in san francisco, and had mostly a great time.  The main thing i wanted to ‘see’ while I was out there was a brewery.  any brewery.  there are about 20 of them in the area.  that didn’t happen, combination of it not working out right schedule-wise, others not really being too interested, and then the last full day we were there, carolyn got sick.  kind of bummed, cause i was so up for it.  i understand sometimes it doesn’t work, but meh.

fun times otherwise, until the travel home.

got from san francisco to minneapolis just fine, but our flight from MSP to CID was cancelled.  spent the next hour fighting with airline people, trying to get on standby for a 9:30pm flight to des moines, where we’d rent a car and drive home (about 2 hours).  they eventually forgot completely about us, and only when carolyn reminded them we were waiting did they jam us on that flight, drove home through fog and rain to arrive at about 3am.  took a half day the next day, woke up this morning and just couldn’t get in the right mindset to go to work, called in sick.

watched ‘silver linings playbook’, that put me in a weird weird mood.  deals a lot with mental illness, and i’m not sure how much i agreed with the way they did that.  put me in my head, now it’s 12:20 and i’m not asleep.

not sure what to do.

i do know i need to be a better person, overall.  mentally, physically, emotionally, etc.  i just need to do better.  hoping that happens.
