I hate waiting. Got here early so Tom could get to class on time. Class begins at 1:30 and only ten minutes between. This is pretty twisted, I tell you. Accommodate one of them and the other gets bent out of shape! Actually, Tom was fine, I suppose. I'm just annoyed at having to be here from 1:30PM - 4:30PM
I must admit that it's pretty cool to see one of the Army transport planes taking off.
I brought a book and my notebook. Also brought a small USB stick, my GB one seems to have disappeared. Annoying! I suppose it will turn up when I'm cleaning unless it accidentally got dumped in the trash.
Discovered that I have stuff that should have been transferred to LJ from 2007! Another thing for the clean up bin!
Found a carryon bag that Jessica gave to Tom. Using that instead of my normal bag as it has wheels. Much easier to handle. Also got a nice short cane, it should be easier to handle than my longer one. Decorative paint got peeled off a bit, but Tom can fix that and the cane was less than five bucks, so, that's not so bad.
I think if ticket prices are still this lower come summer, I'll visit my folks and fly into Avoca airport. Car rental would not be extremely expensive then either.
3:13 PM
It's really weird being the only person in a waiting area for a flight out! That and the TSA people keep looking at me funny!
Some part of me wishes I had a laptop for the waiting and the flight. The rest is saying, "Vacation from everything at home, dope!"
Around Christmas time, I think, airlines starting charging extra for checked baggage. Talk about inviting trouble! I suppose, though, that encourages people to carry less and pack lighter. Truth be told, I could easily pack for a weekend with this carry on, possibly, a week. Have to use the backpacking techniques.
3:42PM
Other people arriving.
I'm hoping to get that buggy ride around the historic district and have a girls' day or night out with Liz. Would like to go to the big flea market. Kevin wants to take the kids to the Six Flags in Georgia. I wonder how he will cope with a toddler and preschooler for 4 hours in a car.
3:52PM
I think they are now unlocking what will be my flight.
