- Snooze -
*drags herself out of bed and taps away at the keyboard*
It took all of yesterday to arrange a flight and book a hostel. Most of the communication between my sister and I took place over MSN...... *prolongs pause* .......
..... We're sitting in the same house, mere seconds from each other and we're doing most of it over MSN ..... *stops being silly* It was probably a good thing, because at the end of it I was sooo frustrated.
First of all I had to chase after her and demand that we decide for definite what date we would go (which changed the moment I was sure it was 'signed-sealed-delivered' *sings* ... errr) how long we'd stay and where we would be staying (that also changed... multiple times). It's barely 3 weeks until we're supposed to be in London and nothing had been sorted, even though we've been 'planning' for weeks and months ! Can anyone blame me for getting annoyed ? No. And if you do, you'll be buried with the doorknob -_-
She wasn't being completely useless though, I'll give her that. A lot of good information was dug out thanks to her, which hopefully makes the trip more enjoyable. Still, it would've been nice to have less of a hassle so close to 'takeoff'.
Since it's impossible to get anything out of her I have no idea why she took so long to get her ass in gear. It could be that she didn't actually have money to book anything (because after I offered to cover expenses until she got money it started to move very quickly) or that she wanted to sort out what day she could meet up with her husband and friends.
I don't know and right now I don't care. The important areas have been covered, the rest of the griping can wait for a day or two.
Biking around with my younger sister has been infinitely more fun, even though our brains sometimes fritz when trying to find a certain street. It also gives us a perfect avenue to quote a favourite movie (sorry if I muck it up):
" Let's follow that trail! "
" What trail? "
" The trail ... that we blaze! "
" ..... "
" That trail that we blaze! "
