Worst Luck Ever

Well, now I'm pissed. Just as my life seems to be settling down this happens.

What I hear you cry? Well, I can't go to any of the Serenity viewings. I may be overeacting but I believe this is a tale of woe and my god am I going to woe about it!

OK. Many moons ago before the first Serenity convention in London not one but 2 special previews for convention attendees took place. Guess what, I couldn't go to them because of money worries and deadlines for my course. Gseat I thought, but at least it isn't finished so I am only missing out on half of something.

Then the US had a zillion screenings, ok fair enough I can't even afford a flight so no hard-feelings about that one.

Then the Edinburgh screenings and I couldn't afford the flights to Edinburgh - I live in the Netherlands by the way (The flights between the two are crazy prices).

Then the London screenings - at last one I should be able to go to but wait, no! Ah yes, I have to work 3 days in August (all the others are optional) - THREE DAYS!!!! One of them is the day after the screening. There is no flight that will get me to work on time for that day!

Now what has just happened? I find out that there is a screening less than an hour from my front door and I can't go. Why? My Dutch isn't good enough to use the browncoats.nl board so I can't get tickets to the exclusive Serenity screening in Amsterdam.

I need an oven to swallow my head!
