    Ugh, so you have a week left of this torture? I feel for you!

    I had this "friend" once. "K" was one of the first people I was introduced to when we arrived at Ft. Wainwright...her husband was in charge of getting us acclimated or something. Anyhow, she seemed okay, kind of a pain in the ass, but I got along with her okay and thought of her as a friend.

    Once a year there was a trip to Anchorage set up for the officer's wives. Some of the women (the smart ones) flew down; those who were cheap (and dumber) drove. "K" decided to ride down with me in my car. I found out on that six-hour trip just how intolerable this idiot woman really was. She talked non-stop about stupid, boring, meaningless subjects in an irritating nasal voice, and she'd repeat herself endlessly. By the time we got to our destination, I had a blistering headache and I seriously wished she'd fall under a bus or get eaten by a polar bear.

    All weekend I was dreading the return trip, trapped in a car alone with her for another 6 hours. Oh, the humanity! To add to the fun, on the way back, my car developed a problem with accelerating uphill, and she went on and on and on about it...how her wonderful husband would NEVER let her drive in a mechanically unsound vehicle; how he was so responsible; how he cared about her so farking much (the guy was known on base for his numerous affairs); and why couldn't my husband have been clairvoyant and known that my relatively new car would develop this problem. Rewind, repeat...blah, blah, blah, *hand me a gun*, blah.

    During a gas stop, I finally told her that if it bothered her that much, that she should stay there at the restaurant and I'd send her fabulously perfect husband to come pick her up....she'd only have a two hour wait. Ha! I was disappointed when she chose to shut up and continue on because by that time, just listening to her breathe was getting on my last nerve. I couldn't believe how much I hated her after that weekend. Sheesh.

    Luna,

    I think you got to the core of what I was feeling with this one line.....

    I have laughed so hard that my sides ache. Breathe, breathe.......
