I guess it's really finally happening!

I don't know any of my flight details, and evidently won't until the end of the week, but I do know that I'll fly out on Labor Day. I did have the regional director of AmeriCorps call me yesterday and ask if I was still coming. I told her I still didn't have any nice clothes, and she got a little... snotty about my last term of service, like it wasn't good enough or something.

But I met with my college advisor and he gave me a good job contact in my field up there, an alumnus. So I'll don some Sparty gear and go say hi and chat fish and bunnies sometime.

And I won't miss my boy-child's birthday! Who's a good pseudo-mom?!

You two could be on the same flight. You should contact each other with flight info and see.

I am not flying, I am driving to Fairbanks. And I am not going to be there Labor Day...*sigh*. The rush ATM card still has not gotten here and there was a screw up with my daughter's anti-seizure meds. Got the meds fixed and picked up, but still waiting for the check card. Fed ex should be bringing it to the bank as I write this. I am waiting for the phone call. Either way, I am leaving in the AM and will be in Alaska on Tuesday, instead of Monday. I had to change every single reservation today.

Have a good flight and enjoy your layover in Minneapolis. Be careful with those airport bathrooms.
