Ok, some of you may recall a recent post of mine regarding a planned trip to a country in continental Europe.
Well I had booked a flight to Linz, Austria, for today. I was planning to travel up to Prague the next day, then bacl to linz the day after that.
Well guess what, I only realised this morning that I'd left my passport up at my universit residence. It was too late to travel up there and get it, so now I can not go, and I've wasted my money. I feel so pissed off, I really can't even be bothered to be original or poetic about it.
My friends, of course, still went, and I was planning on going out there to catch up witht hem tomorrow them tomorrow. But I've just checked the flihts, and they're all too expensive.
I'm on my Easter holidays at the moment, and I've been slaving it at some sh*t labouring job, getting up at 5am, earning minmum wage, just so I could get away from the sheer boredom of daily life here, for a few measely days. Yet I'm too f*cking rational to blame God, or fate, or feel that life is treating me unfairly, which I believ are all healthy reactions. So it just ends up seeming absurd.
I know it's not that big a deal compared to many other things, but I really need to vent my frustration somehow.

A (slightly) similar thing has happend to me before. Pre-DR/DP, I was working for a company in Cambridge that flew us IT nerds out to the head office, upper class on Virgin, to LA. I was well excited....until I got the airport.....and realised my passport had expired. Doh !

Bummer.

Yeah it does totally suck. I feel like such an idiot. If I'd at least prepared last night, I'd have realised where mys passport was, and would have been able to leave earlier tot get it. But for some stupid reason I assumed I had it at home.
I know it's a bit pathetic, but I feel kinda' sad. This year has been really sh*t, and one I just want to forget. Things have been looking a bit better lately though. Last night I was feeling pretty good actually. All I wanted was a few days I could remember fondly from this year. Now those days will never exist. Sorry I know how soppy and self pittying that sounds. Yeah I am feeeling sorry for myself.
Oh God, what the hell am I gonna' do with the rest of my weekend? I've got to read 'Notes from Underground' (it's about a man who has no friends and moans all the time about how crap his life is) and write an essay on it, that'll cheer me up.
Then it's back to work on monday. I've spent the last week scraping vinyl off the floor, and I'm only half done. Wow I really can't wait.
Aaaaaaaaarggh!!!!!!!!!!! :evil:

call the airline and explain what happened... you might get some tender soul who cares about your plight. chances are they let someone else on as a standby. do those better versed in travel know if there is any chance of a refund for axel???

look at it this way: you'l never, ever ever ever make the same mistake again!!!!!!!

 

[agentcooper]

by the way, i definately don't think you're making too big of a deal out of it. that situation would be very dissapointing and you seemed really excited about it.

i agree with little croc., you should call the airlines and explain the situation. sometimes people are nicer than you'd think

Dear Axel I'm so sorry, but at least you have a sense of humor. This reminds of something dear Martin might say, LOL.

Bummer extraoridinaire!!!!

Reminds me, I should renew my passport -- it's up to date but the picture is TERRIBLE. I have a fear that I will need it to cross into Canada to buy medication. I'm right across from Ontario and they're starting to ask for passports, not just US driver's licenses. I may seek asylum and live way up North with moose and bison and live in a small log cabin with a large dog.

What the Hell am I talking about? LOL

Life can truly suck.

Sorry Axel.
