trying not to tempt fate

I'm off again. no, not off my rocker. off to Austin. this time it's the wedding festivities weekend. this time I had an equally odd send-off.

another show before heading out of town. another run-in with various people including one certain friend. another fun night out despite the discomfort. and this time I'm not solely talking about the interaction with my friend.

honestly, I'm a little worried about tomorrow. I'm not typically superstitious (except that it's completely my mom's fault the home team couldn't pull off the win Sunday, since she didn't wear her jersey to the game as she had all season). but this is different.

the last time I went to see Cake at the Fillmore, was the night before September 11th. tonight was a great show. got to hang out with a bunch of very cool people. but I was careful not to enjoy it too much. I didn't want to tempt fate.

I know it's completely unreasonable, but I'm frightened to fly tomorrow. although I'm sure nothing will go wrong, sometimes silly unconscious fears can rattle around in my head so much that they begin to effect my conscious thought.

Holy crap, you go to a lot of weddings!!!

Don't worry, all will be well. Have a glass of wine, grab a good novel, and put some headphones on to get through your flight.
