This Isn't Alarming . . .

This isn't Africa . . . this is America . . . Traveling Fact # 1. Don't fall asleep on top of your alarm clock. The draw backs of falling asleep on top of your alarm clock are as follows: You will abruptly wake up to "oh crap, it's five-thirty and we were supposed to leave at four-thirty." In addition to the rude wake up, you will be forced to wait in a long line for customers who are "full service, international flight, no confirmation code, no e-ticket and for those customers who fell asleep on top of their alarm clocks and arrived 40 minutes before their time of departure". As an added kick in the pants, you will be out $50.00, be slightly more stressed than you had hoped for and will no longer qualify for use of the "Expert Traveler" security check-in line . . . :)
Now, the advantages to mission your flight are that to relieve your fatigue and stress, you have the opportunity to purchase over-priced, bad coffee, and you get to sit on the cold tile floor of the airport for four hours and spend "quality" time with your amazing boyfriend who you won't get to see for the next six months. :)

Please pray that God would give me strength and that he would draw close to me as I deal with a great deal of change in a short amount of time.

"Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go." - Joshua 1:9
