Safe and sound in Norman

and no travel gremlins with the exception of me, who got a phone call 15 minutes from
the airport (I was talking hands free, but not paying attention) missed my exit, had to figure
out how to program the GPS and find the airport and rolled in 50 minutes prior to take off.
Thank goodness not one person in front of me to check my bag nor in the security line.
Someone was looking out for me. Silvercamaro was waiting for me at the airport, blue
skies and happy dogs greeting me, so all is well.

Hermillion will join us tomorow
night. We'll be good, I promise.

Well, there's got to be at least one, I guess....my bet is that a lovely Norman resident might have a noted fondness for shiny cars.

I was probably on the phone and too focused on helping some poor gate agent fix her printer or something to bother with looking out the window at the right moment.
Depending on which runway you were on, and which way you were facing, you might have seen Southwest HDQ go by. I'm over there somewhere.
(Also, thank you for flying our airline. Seriously.)

You're welcome. Logistically, it's amazing how efficient things go without problems like bad weather interrupting them.
I love it that you now have a number on your boarding pass so you don't have to sit on the floor for a hour. They can
do a turnaround in record time compared to other airlines. It's really a well run airline and quite reasonably priced.
Thanks!

It's true. Annie does like shiny cars, which is why she wishes I would wash mine.

They will wreak havoc much too late to make it on the 11:00 news. Try the 2 a.m. update.

I know of a restaurant manager who will be delighted to welcome us back at 2 a.m.!
My bag is packed and will be loaded into the FNLANSR in the morning. When the bell rings at 3:30, I'll hit the road. See y'all at the theater!

Kay will have custody of your ticket. She'll find you in the lobby (or vice versa.) Can't wait to see you!

You should have come by to pick up the chocolate! Then you could have brought me the spinach dip on your return.
