Steam

I am so stinking angry right now. All day I have been inwardly fuming, through flights and lunch with friends, math homework and dinner, my mind always goes back to this, and there is no question, I am Honked. I am angry enough that when I came unexpectedly upon one of the persons, the ONLY reason I did not stick my finger in his face and back him into a hangar wall was because there were three other people nearby and it's poor business practice and poor social etiquette to start yelling at someone in public. My anger is more cumulative than just today's action, but when somebody you've worked with a lot, done a lot for, helped out as much as possible, when they turn around and try to basically steal from you, get away with whatever they can, use you and even flat out stab you in the back, whether it's because they're stupid, immature, or simply self-centered, it's obviously infuriating. And this type of thing hasn't just happened once, with one person, but over and over, and it's usually the same age group. Two of the persons, after taking everything they could get out of us to further themselves and their goals, left us in the lurch on a couple of things in a pretty big way, and then proceeded to have the gall to ask to build up their twin time for free by going on trips with me. One I politely said no to. The other is just lucky he didn't ask me in person. I have had it.
In a weak attempt to lighten the mood, Kaylee's doing fine, Steve's off at a meeting, we're staying busy, the poor T-6 looks bare, I took a student cross-country flight to Monticello today, yadda yadda pass the Tylenol and maybe a blood pressure pill. I've felt my blood pressure breaking 100 all day. ;)
