The hot chocolate is free the Captain is not.

So would I. The way that people shovel food into their mouths you'd think that it was their last meal.

Aw, I can't seem to get myself into a trouble causing mood. Oh well...

Are you getting a lot of snow tonight?

[Xa'at]

Yeah, it's snowing pretty hard. Or at least it was last I checked. It's dark now so...
I'm going out later. Hopefully the roads aren't too bad.

Oh, I'm boring. I'll be home by midnight.
Heck, I learned to drive in this weather. 8 to 16 inches of snow is nothing.

Tell that to people down here. The whole city shuts down if we get an inch or less.

I made my reservations last night for our hotel in Wasilla. Now I'm trying to figure out where we should stay for our last night. I'd like to be close enough to the airport to not have to get up at 6am for the drive. I was looking at the Captain but its really spendy.
