Here is the big post from earlier:
So here I am, sitting in the airport with an hour to spare. (Actually I had 1 ½ hours, But a trip to Starbucks and Burger King took care of that) I love the age that we are in, I walked up to the Curb-side check in and checked my one bag, and then over to the E-ticket terminals and printed out my Boarding pass. I guess Paul was right, I didn’t need to get here at 6am. I guess I got used to the idea that security was going to be tough to get through and what-not. I breezed through security like nothing. (It could have something to do with the 8 million security people working at the time.) That’s ok though, this gives me the chance to write the update for the blog covering the weekend. Problem is, without a wi-fi, I am not sure when I will be able to Post this, but please believe me, I am indeed writing this from the Airport in VA.
So the Christmas Party was great! I woke up late on Saturday, Mostly because I knew that Amy wanted to take care of a bunch of stuff and I didn’t want to get in her way. (That, and I really love sleeping in.) So she busily went about her business getting her Broccoli and cheese casserole, and her two Pumpkin Rolls made. Both of which were big hits at the party. We stayed at Marc and Lori’s place until about midnight and then headed home. This was the first time visiting The Patton House in the new truck and I am happy to report, no ditch incidents. (if I get the chance to hyperlink to the “Ditch Incident” I will, kinda hard with no net connection)
So Sunday morning rolled around and I had a plan, sort of, I had an Idea of a plan. I told Amy that she could sleep in and around 8:30ish I woke up and headed to action. First stop, Toys R Us. (Actually first stop was the bathroom, and then the Closet to get my pants.) I knew what I wanted to get, now I just had to find it. I picked out a HUGE “Funshine Bear” Care Bare Plush. Next stop, “Bagel Buddies” for the usual, 1 Bagel with Ham Egg and Cheese, 1 Bagel with Sausage Egg and Cheese, and 2 Spiced Chai Latte’s. Last Stop, back at home. I snuck back into the house, with her still asleep, and assembled the Breakfast Plates, headed in and surprised her with a Birthday Breakfast in Bed with Funshine Bear! Yup, this last Sunday was Amy’s birthday. After sitting in bed and soaking up the morning, we headed out to get my Haircut. While out, we stopped at Hot Topic and I got her a set of Nightmare Before Christmas “Sally” Pajamas. (Also bought a cool GIR action figure.) We then went to Great Falls to the person that cuts my hair. (Yes, I have a specific person that cuts my hair, But I am still not Emo.) While driving through Great Falls we happened on a really cool Mill so, while we had the time, we stopped to look around and walk out in the cold afternoon air. After the brisk walk we went and finished up with my Haircut and ended up getting Amy a Manicure. After that it was a Nice evening at home
Monday was all about cleaning and Packing. Too bad none of that happened until late. I tried to sleep in a little. I Know I played some EQ2 with Lee as he was home before his trip as well. I think I cleaned a little and I know I did Laundry, but the rest of the day was kind of blurry. Except for last night, when my Sister calls me at 11:30pm to see if I can find something at the Local Wal-Mart. So out of bed I go and off to the Shopping Center. Sure enough, they were out too. (After Christmas I might post what it was) After all that, I then couldn’t sleep. I stayed in bed for a while, but ended up getting up and playing on the PC till close to 2am, when I was tired enough to actually sleep. This Morning I woke up at about 5:30am and said my goodbyes and Merry Christmas to Amy. Paul came by at 10 till 6 and we were out the door at 6am. Sure enough, I was sitting here eating my breakfast at 6:30am. So Yes, Paul, You were right, I didn’t need to get here this early. But hey, if I didn’t, then I probably wouldn’t have had the time to write all of this! Next Stop San Diego!
