First and foremost, did you all realize today is Friday the 13th?! Crazy. I totally didn’t even notice until I looked at my work phone just now. Random.

Secondly, I am leaving town later today. Husband is dropping me off at the airport and I am flying to Long Beach, California for a convention this weekend. Should make for a good time. Only I am a little nervous cause I have never had to fly alone. I’m not really alone, ’cause I am traveling with my up-line (well she is on the same flight anyway), but I am traveling sans siblings, sans spouse, and sans parental units, which I have never done. How can that be, you ask? I guess I just lead a sheltered life. So, being the anal retentive person I am, I have checked the status of my flight (still on), doubled checked that I have my boarding pass (I do) and triple checked that I packed everything I might have the occasion to need (also done). And, are you ready for this? I have printed the driving directions from the airport to the hotel, from the hotel to the convention, and from the convention back to the airport. (Google maps is the best! True Dat. Double true!) I really hate being lost, and since Simeon is my navigational beacon, I wanted to do my best to not get lost on this trip. Think I have over done it? Probably. Do I care? Nope.

And (thirdly?) lastly, I wanted to leave you with my final thought. (Ok, suddenly I am feeling very Jerry Springer-esque.) Anyway, here is my Google quote of the day, it’s too good not to share:

I think age is a very high price to pay for maturity. –Tom Stoppard

Can I get an amen to that? Alrighty. I am over and out. Have a great weekend all! I’ll be back next week.
