Today was a rough day. It started out with a 4:30 a.m. wake up call to head to the airport. I hate early morning flights, but they tend to always be early and on-time. My first flight was just fine. I had a connection in D.C. that was really tight. I got on my 2nd flight someone was in my seat. She was 5 years old and wanted the window. I am 26 years old and booked the window seat. Tough luck, kid. The father promptly called me a "bitch" because I wouldn't let his kid keep a seat that was not hers. I was so mad. The flight attendants came and told him to have a seat and that they'd deal with him after the flight. He was met by security when we landed. He is no longer welcome on United flights. Take that, mean dude. Needless to say, it was a really uncomfortable flight sitting next to such a jerk. Sigh.
I met my Mom in the Orlando airport and we headed towards Grandpa and Grandma's house. I had not driven for more than about an hour since moving to Boston so I was loving the roadtrip. We got to my grandparent's house and things were worse than we had expected. My grandpa is not in very good condition to say the least. I, as you all know, do not deal well with this kind of thing. I was pretty much a mess all day. I am also really, really sick. I am pretty certain that I've got strep throat something awful. Today was not quite the vacation day that I had expected. My Mom and I went to dinner together tonight and I cried through the whole meal. I don't like illnesses. I really don't like being a grown-up sometimes. Today was one of those times.
Please keep my grandparents and Mom in your prayers. Things are tough, but God is with us.
