I’ve come to the realization that I have at least two personalities. There’s real world Erin and then there’s airport Erin. I don’t really care for the airport version of myself. It’s 4:47 AM, and Frank Sinatra’s voice fills gate B6 waiting area. Let it snow is on, but thankfully there’s no snow falling today. In fact, it’s a beautiful 30-something degrees outside. Earlier I was sitting near a family who was quite loudly (and annoyingly) “critiquing†the rest of the people in the area. It was completely annoying, but airport Erin knows they were pretty much dead on. I wonder who I’ll have to sit by.
I had a crazy cab lady drive me over. Maybe it was just that it wasn’t even 4 in the morning, or maybe she was really crazy. Aren’t taxis sort of funny? We allow complete strangers to drive us around. Who’s to say the crazies won’t drive right off with us in the back?
Bill was sleeping soundly when I left, despite my best efforts to maneuver loudly around the hotel room. He’s had a busy couple of weeks and is due some rest time.
The beauty of the time difference between here and MN is that I was able to talk to Ape already this morning. She and Trish finished the purchases for Lo’s shower last night. I can’t believe that’s already this weekend. Where has the time gone?
Yesterday was very low-key. Bill took me out for lunch, but had to rush back to work pretty much as soon as the food came. It was still nice to go out for lunch together. I walked down to the mall and got my gift exchange gift picked out for the work meeting. I also spent some time sitting at Starbucks – wrote a few Christmas cards and made a few phone calls. We ended the evening with at trip with Randy to Fred Meyers where we got some ice cream and a People magazine for today. Then Bill and I finished a stupid movie.
