Rawr, and so forth

So it's Saturday, and I'm sitting here at work. The positive thing is that means I was off yesterday, and sometimes it's nice to be off on a Friday/ On the other hand...I still wish I was off on a Saturday! Oh well, I'll be off on Saturdays again in July. Silver lining to the cloud.

And in other news, next weekend is Fourth of July. Not only does that mean we're celebrating our Independence, but hubby and I are also going on a trip! We're going up to Boston to visit hubby's brother for the weekend. It should be a fun trip, we're scheduled to go whale watching. I'm only slightly nervous about the actul flight to and from.

I remember a time when I actually liked to fly and thought it was pretty cool. Now it sort of scares me a bit, perhaps because of all the recent plane problems. But thousands of flights happen every day and they're just fine, right? I still can't shake a dread for flying. Not to mention hubby and I don't get to sit together on the trip up since the flight is too full. Hopefully I don't have to sit between two large, smelly people. Or next to a kid who screams the whole time. I think I might prefer a busy 3 hours at work during Summer Reading to that--at least here I can tell a screaming kid to tone it down.

So cross your fingers for pleasant flights for us and a nice trip. :)

Also, tomorrow is my parents' 40th wedding anniversary! Wow! Congratulations to them, and many more to come. They're celebrating in Vegas!
