TRAVEL

Crobarger packing must haves:
*a mother who wakes up her children at 8am when they just went to bed 4 hours ago to start packing when the plane doesn't leave until 8pm that night...12 hours of packing?!?!?
*a father who gets upset evertime there is one dish in the sink and spends 1/2 the day washing dishes...yea right, we do still have to eat...
*last minute laundry
*running around not being able to find the things you want to pack and know they were just there yesterday...

Events of the previous hour before leaving for the airport:
~mom gets angry because I took 1/2 the cat litter she bought that day for Gatsby and now there is not enough for her two cats
~dad runs to the vons to buy more cat litter
~aunt penny arrives to drive us to the airport
~dad calls mom to inform her that someone has just hit her car
~brent and i help load the luggage
~we all get into the car
~dad realizes he no longer has his wallet
~we all search everwhere for dad's wallet
~we drive back to the vons shopping center to look for said wallet
~dad finds it in the gutter on the street
~on the drive to the airport dad calls the insurance company

Events at the airport:
~mom, brent and i get onto the terminal for the wrong flight
~we wait outside the terminal for the correct flight
~i choke myself on the peppers from my piza
~brent trades seats with a guy on the plane to sit next to me
~a first class guest pays for everyone on the plane to have tv access
~brent and i watch Aquaman

~brent and i watch Johnny Quest

~brent and i watch Duck Dodgers


LATER, FINALLY, I CRAWL INTO BED WITH MY 7 YEAR OLD COUSIN, KAELAH-MARIE, AND ATTEMPT TO FALL ASLEEP. . .
