Adaptation

I’m almost completely packed up and ready to fly back east again. I’m pretty excited to see the BF so we can drink strong sangria and hot chocolate together (I don’t mean sangria and hot chocolate combined — ew). So tomorrow morning I’ll catch the #2 bus to Lakewood, and the #574 to SeaTac, and immediately after checking in you will find me at Starbucks… I need my Starbucks because during my flight I’ve got a lot of work to catch up on.

I hope I’m not seated to Ms. Sourface again though. That happened on my last flight over… For some reason I ended up sitting next to the most unhappy flyer I’ve ever seen. She wouldn’t even say thank you to the flight attendant.

Unfortunately our weekend plans have changed. My BF’s only living Grandmother was taken to the hospital and will be having her leg amputated. So I’ll fly into DC tomorrow night, and then Saturday night(ish) we’re going to drive up to Rochester NY to be with his family. We have to be back in Maryland before classes Tuesday.

He was so sweet on the phone earlier and kept apologizing for the change of plans and promising that we’ll have a romantic Valentine’s Day no matter what. We’re going to go back to the awesome cafe in downtown ROC that we went to together right after we first met. It should be pretty nice even if it isn’t all spent around DuPont Circle.

I’ll definitely be writing again soon! I have to go because I think a C-17 is about to crash into my house… (That’s an inside joke, and I’m sorry I had to expose you to it). Stop flying over my house Dave…
