I'd kind of rather just stay at home and watch Real Housewives of New Jersey with my mom. Basically, it's a good thing that this trip is already planned because I feel completely unmotivated right now.
In other news, I bought Pride and Prejudice and Zombies yesterday and really look forward to reading it. Oh yeah, I went there.
So I didn't get my shit together in time to get my travel visa to Egypt from the Chicago consulate. Apparently it takes 2-3 days, not 1 hour. After I rushed around this morning to get passport pictures. At least I found this out before I took the hour-long train ride into the city. *sigh* If I had kept with my lie (that I needed my passport to get a visa for a trip to Jordan--a trip I'm actually taking), my mom would have mailed me my passport and I could have taken care of this in NYC. I've known that I wanted to do this for ages. Ugh.
My new plan of attack is to go to Tel Aviv on Sunday and get the visa from the Egyptian Embassy. I can go in the morning, file the paperwork, and do some exploring while they process everything. Woo! Thank god I already have the passport picture...now all I need is Hilary's contact information in Cairo.
This replanning has gotten me more excited. :P
