Double-Booked
Months ago, I agreed to teach some classes at a conference being held in Albuquerque for 9-1-1 professionals. Weeks ago, I auditioned for a role in a play opening on April 11th, without knowing exactly when the rehearsals would be. Now, I'm double booked. This evening I leave for Albuquerque (a 180 mile trip), and I'll spend the night there, and attend the first day of the 3-day conference. Then, tomorrow afternoon, I get to drive back to Farmington for rehearsal, and spend the night here, before leaving early in the morning for Albuquerque Tuesday morning. Drive back Tuesday afternoon, then drive to Albuquerque Wednesday morning, to drive back to Farmington Wednesday afternoon.
All told, I will be driving 1,080 miles over the next three days. I should just drive to California, instead. Thank God for audio books.

You know whenever that happens to me I want my jet pack. You know the jet pack that was on TV when we were kids, all the cool guys had them and you could just fly from place to place. We never got the jet pack, I feel gypped, man.
:)
Oooh! -I hate it when that happens!!!!
Ah well, maybe enjoy driving enough that it won't seem like such a hassle. Doing what you love to do is mostly easy... But, doing what you must is sometimes rough.
Maybe you can take some pictures of the landscape as you go by...
Either that, or people didn't want their feet burned off. :-D
