ermagoI'm back in DC, but only for a few days. I will be leaving again on Friday for Vegas for a few days.
Yesterday morning, we decided that we were going to get up at 7am, but at 5am they made some announcement all over the ship, so I was woken up and could never really get back to sleep.
We got ready and had breakfast, then decided to try and get off the ship to make an 11am flight...Our flight was scheduled to leave at 2...but we thought maybe we could get home a little earlier. We ended up disembarking probably around 930 and got over to the airport...by the time we got to the ticket counter it was 10am..and the plane boarded at 1030...The agent was nice enough to put us on the earlier flight.
Remember I bought that liquor...it didn't dawn on me until we were at security I couldn't get it through...they told me I had to check it...so they gave me my shoes, my boarding pass and my passport to go back to the ticket counter. My wallet, phone and everything else was in my backpack past the security check point.
When I got back there they told me that I already had checked two bags and that it would cost $50...Total we had only checked 5 bags so we could check one more. I was ready to charge it but my credit card was in my backpack....so they took us back to the agent who checked us in....talk about a cluster fuck....I ended up having my dad's boarding pass and my passport....the agent was nice enough to give me another boarding pass and check the package in. I made it back to the gate just in time for boarding.
The whole flight home I was thinking, $100 shot to shit on liquor. I didn't even think about packing the liquor in my suitcase. As it was I had to sign something that said, that the airline isn't responsible if it gets damaged. So the whole way home, I was hoping that it would make it. When it came off the luggage rack, I dove for it so that it wouldn't break...as it is, I got it home and not a scratch thank god.
On the way home I called![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
eurodancemix and told him if he wanted to come over he could, but I would be running around...and that's exactly what I was doing. Laundry, paying bills, going to the grocery store.
I did give him two of his Xmas gifts against his will...they were smaller things I got on the cruise...The big one I will give him on Wednesday.
It sucks to be home. I really didn't want to get off the ship, but oh well....My friend Travis called me yesterday as I was getting off the ship...to welcome me home...I didn't call him until like 3 because of all the drama at the airport...He told me he was going to be in town next month for please so I will probably see him then.
So the rest of this week...I am going to a meeting tonight and tomorrow...then Claude is coming over on Wednesday.
I have a ton of work to do here so I'm gonna get going with that.
