I'm at a hotel-not the high rise kind but a three story spread out kind in the suburbs somewhere, and trying to find my room. I can't quite decipher what is written on the paperwork, so lug my stuff into about four different rooms all over the sprawling complex. In a couple of them I lay down on the bed before somehow realizing I am in the wrong room, and getting up and schlepping all my stuff out to the next room. One of the rooms is right next to (or behind) a room where a meeting is going on-is it about me or am I just paranoid? I don't stay around to find out.
I finally got so annoyed with not finding my room that I woke myself up and wondered-why didn't I just pick up the phone in one of those rooms and ask the front desk where I was supposed to be?
Interesting. Will have to think about this one.
UPDATE- After thinking about this today, I decided that the hotel is my work life-it all just makes sense
a) the fact that I can't read what room I'm supposed to be in-that's a no-brainer since I still don't know what I want to do when I grow up (or what I'm supposed to be doing)
b) lugging all my stuff from room to room-the rest of my life comes with me as I try to figure out what I should do
c) laying on the bed-sometimes I get comfortable with what I am doing (like now) but it still isn't quite right. This is the case even though the job I have now is probably the closest I'll ever get, without suddenly hitting the lottery of course, BUT it still bores me to tears. Am I up shit's creek or what?!
d) the meeting-I think this is finally about my job interview and the waiting I am doing now. Also I am getting stressed out about the background check etc, although if I got a casino license in 1994, this should be a piece of cake?!
finally e) why didn't I call the front desk? Because there are no phones in any of the rooms, metaphorically of course. It's all on me to figure this shit out, which of course is VERY frustrating.
No wonder I woke myself up!!!!!
Now to answer your comments so far. Hmm do I want waffles or pancakes? LOL
