Jan. 5th, 2007 12:58 amFirst and foremost - Happy birthday Mykle and Sarah (even if I am late - I have a good excuse)! I want to come visit you two on Tuesday or Wednesday (my two days off next week). Let me know which works better for you.
Now, onto my trip to California.
It all started with me spending too much time in an airport. Again. I got up, managed to get my car to the park n ride. Bus arrived nominally ontime and away to the airport I go. I get there and check in at noon. My flight is scheduled at 9:30pm. It is snowing. lots. Sooooo... I talk to the nice Frontier lady and I get a standby ticket for the 6pm flight to San Jose. I sit at the airport, watch some Buffy Season 7 and read some. I do get on the 6pm flight, but it got delayed until 7:15pm. I got to my grrl.
We slept in on Saturday and then exchanged gifts. I got Buffy Season 6, Pirates of the Carribean 2 (second copy), a horse calendar, a ninja pen and my Kameron Wimbley jersey. Squee! My grrl liked her stuff and it was fun watching her unwrap it all. We then decided to have a little adventure courtesy of the Twisted Gnome, my friend Josh. *grins*
After that it was up to Sacramento with my grrl, Karma and Stevil for the wedding. I drove and we mananged to get lost. Totally not my fault, though. I literally had no idea where I was goingf. I was just following orders. Thankfully it was only an hour out of the way. We had Denny's for dinner and finally made it to Panasus' house.
Sunday, NYE, was the wedding. There was much helping going on and absolutely no essplaining to me exactly what the relationships in the house were. (I learned this all on my own later.) The wedding was pretty. Paarnasus was beautiful and had a kick-ass dress (Indian style). My grrl was in the wedding and gorgeous. Who would have thought tourquoise/aqua would look so good on her. I did a lot of people watching while everyone was prepping for the wedding since I pretty much knew like 2 people who weren't in the wedding (one I met earlier in the day).
After the wedding there was New Year's partiness going on. I mananged to embarass myself (and my grrl) horribly later that night. And that's all I'm going to say on the matter and I shall spork out the eyes of anyone who pushes me about giving more info. I do have that new titanium spork, remember...
New Year's Day had us giving a hand cleaning up and hanging out before we drove our happy butts back to Santa Clara. This time without the extra hour jaunt.
Tuesday was lunch at Chili's, then funtime in Borders. My grrl is amaxzing. She found the My Little Pny Movie on DVD. *ubersquees* I now have it. It's my favorite childhood movie. *bounces* We then went and saw Dreamgirls. By the Gods does Jennifer Hudson have a voice. It's an amazing movie with awesome music. So worth the ten bucks to see it. We then went to dinner at Outback with my grrl's fam and Auzrais. It was good seeing them all.
Wednesday was lounge around the apartment, watch movies, snuggles and stuff before I had to head to the airport for my flight home. Which was delayed an hour and a half. *sighs* By the time I got into Denver, Rich picked me up and we got back home, it was almost 2am. I stayed up a couple mre hours to wind down and poke at the stuff online I'd been ignoring for the last five days.
I miss my grrl.
