At 2:00PM on Saturday, I went to the Burbank airport to check in my luggage for my Seattle flight. After printing out my boarding ticket, which read 5:40 boarding time, I went to Annie and Andy's wedding, not too far from the airport. The ceremony was sweet, Annie looked great, and Andy didn't have a beard (must have whacked it off after the Indian ceremony.) It ended at about 3:15, and the reception didn't start til 4:30.
A bunch of us headed down to Tujunga for the reception and waited around for the open-bar to begin...yaay for open-bar weddings!! I had my eye on the time since I didn't want to miss my boarding time. At 5:25, the wedding party was introduced to the reception. As soon as they announced the newly wed couple, I hopped in the car, drove back to the airport like a maniac. As soon as I got to terminal B, with an increased heart rate, an up-do, and MAC make-up still intact, it was 5:38!! With 2 minutes to spare, I perused the snack stand, but couldn't decide on peanuts or cashews. As I got closer to the podium, I noticed the boarding time started with a 6. Turns out, it was changed to 6:45!! Oh well, a girl can only learn from this lesson.
On my flight, I sat next to this really cool chick, Valerie. She was a talker, but she put me at ease, and the 2 hours went by rather quickly, aside from the free booze on the plane! OH YEAH! She had her coors light, and I with my Jack and Diet...mmmmm...we tried to pay the flight attendant, but she wouldn't take our money. As we approached to Seattle, I became anxious and excited to see G again. Valerie and I continued to make girl talk as we made our way throught the Sea-Tac airport with a slight buzz, and I spotted his shaved head amongst the crowd of welcomers. After Valerie and I exchanged numbers and said our good-bye, I ran to G's arms....aah, that felt good!
Overall, the trip was awesome. We had such a good time...I can't wait to see him again!
