early morning travel blues

my credit card statement informs me that vuzix may not have trusted my credit card enough to ship my order, but they were more than happy to take my money. that's comforting - i wonder when the thirty days of my "thirty day money-back guarantee" begin? i've cancelled my order, i'll re-place it when i'm sure i won't be double-charged. that shit's expensive.

---i spent this morning being harried by bad websites that are supposed to facilitate airline ticket purchases; it was kind almost a relief when pg reversed herself and made the call to spend the weekend in boston instead.

finding a reasonably-priced hotel room downtown wasn't a problem, and the greyhound tickets would have been a breeze... if they could have been purchased online. i tried three times before calling them, running the automated assistant gauntlet and speaking to a man with a terrible accent to find out that we'd need to purchase the tickets from montreal in person. couldn't that be written on the website?

we now have a week to get all of our documentation in order. it had better be enough.
