Wednesday: my day

very early in the am, Ben is getting ready for bed and Amanda has been asleep
Amanda: Ben, there are some things that I really need to remember!
Ben walks out of the bathroom
Amanda: oh, maybe it was a dream. Was it? Yeah, I think so.
Amanda goes back to sleep. Fast forward 30 minutes. Ben is still awake
Amanda: Ben, it is really important that I remember this!!
Ben: What do you need to remember?
Amanda: Something something camera and something to say.
Ben: Flurry can say it.
Amanda: Flurry can't really talk. We just pretend that she can.

Amanda goes to work.
Guy Amanda works with: Hey Amanda, do you have a twin?
Amanda: no, why?
GAWW: I was jamming with this guy last night and he looked exactly like you. I couldn't stop staring.
Amanda: haha.

Amanda leaves work. yay

As we're leaving in a rush, not really late but trying to be early because of the busy travel day, we wonder were Flurry is. Usually she tries to get in our way and convince us to stay.

We found her looking cute under the Christmas tree (and not eating the tree), showing us once again how cute she is. I have a picture but can't get it on here.

We try going to the library. It's closed. It's one of the problems living in a small town...the library has weird hours. We continue on our way. Ben's glasses' lens falls out at the stop light. Surprise. We make a quick detour to the optometrist (who is open) and Ben gets his glasses fixed in three minutes.

We make it to the airport, not really know what to expect. The security line was closed. Oh. It opens about 15 minutes later and we get in line. We were about number 10 and 11 in line. Twenty minutes later we're finally going through security. I don't know why it was so slow. there weren't any of the new scanners and no one seemed to be causing any trouble, but they could not move the people through.

Shortly after we hear the boarding announcement: "This is the final and immediate boarding call". It was rather surprising as there wasn't a first and non-immediate boarding call.

the plane made my toes really cold. and then my toes got as cold as they could so my legs started getting cold. well, maybe not as cold as possible but almost.

And now we're waiting for our connection and because there are only so many things to do in the airport you heard an almost complete accounting of my day.
