Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go
Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go...
Perhaps, "Leaving on a Jet Plane" by John Denver is a bit dramatic. For one, I knew when I'll be back again. I was only gone for 2 days, 2 nights. Secondly, I can't say that I hated to go to out of town without Rob. I'm of the school that a little absence makes the heart grow fonder. Or in my case, a little absence saves your sanity.
I took another trip to Houston to visit Cicely & Gary. I hadn't seen them since the wedding. They bought a new house and I was anxious to see it. My agenda was simple. I wanted a little shopping and relaxation.
Friday Night
The flight was fairly uneventful except for the whiny toddlers sitting behind me. Thankfully, they were unconscious after the 1st hour. The in-flight movie was "Daddy Day Camp". It's movies like that that make me glad that I like to read. I spent the entirety of my flight reading "The Time Traveler's Wife". The book was so engrossing that I read nearly half of it. Not bad for a 3.5 hour flight.
I arrived at 10:30pm, which did not leave us many options for food. Poor Gary was exhausted from work and was unusually silent. We stopped at Sonic near their apartment. I grabbed a burger, tater tots and a cherry limeade from Sonic. I love their ice. They used granulated ice cubes. I swear that they make the drinks colder faster. Gary went promptly to bed. Cicely and I spent the rest of the evening watching trashy Reality TV. I don't normally watch it on my own, but somehow I find it entertaining when I'm hanging out with her. I have no idea who comes up with these shows, but I always wonder where in the world they find the participants. I fell asleep watching that drivel. I wonder if it lowered my IQ.
