The highlights of my trip.

I remember why I don't mind so much living so far away from the whole family. Sure it gets lonely during the holidays, but I'll be damned if it doesn't feel good to be able to live a drama-reduced life away from aunts, uncles, cousins, 2nd cousins, cousins of cousins and their neighbor's friends.
I came back more tired than when I left for my vacation. Oh and did I mention fucking KLM lost my suitcase. Yeah they're on my ultimate shit list for eternity. So since July 22nd I have had NO summer wardrobe. Oh I'm not bitter. Not at all. Not after they lied to me for a week and told me my luggage was in Amsterdam (it wasn't). Not after some fuck-wad that works at JFK gave me the name "Jeff Collins" and when I spoke to a manager and mentioned this helpful fellow (really, "Jeff" was helpful) he said no one by that name worked for them. Yeah so I wasn't pissed at the lies or at NO phone calls or even that no one apologized until about 3 week later when we called some Northwest office in Minnesota. Yeah all that- not pissed off about the irresponsibility and the nonchalant attitude, total apathy and lack of concern or care about their customer. So that topped my trip off with a nice big red fucking cherry. But seriously guys, I'm not being honest with you. Allow me to really open up.
