never talk to my mom before a trip
I was remarkably unfreakedout for someone who's leaving for 2 weeks tomorrow at the crack of dawn (crack of dawn always sounds like a bad time to leave, but it gets you to Honolulu in the early afternoon, so...).
My mother gasped when I told her I had 2 connections. TWO STOPS. YOUR LUGGAGE WILL BE LOST. And then shuddered when I pointed out than one of the layovers was less than 30 minutes, in Cincinnati. OMG YOU WILL MISS YOUR FLIGHT AAAAAAAAAAA.
Now. I am not so chill. So, lesson learned. Don't ask her advice about whether to pack everything in a large carryon or just check it. She will bring the paranoia. This is oddly fatalistic of me, but I figure if I miss my flight, maybe there's something I'm supposed to do in Cincinnati.
But I guess I'll pack everything in my carryon, just in case what I'm supposed to do in Cincinnati is stay for two days.
In other news: I'm GOING TO HAWAII. After I finish whatever that thing is in Cincinnati.
ETA: dad, who is currently stuck at the Atlanta airport, says he always checks his bag and is annoyed that mom talked him into carrying on this thing that he's now been dragging all over the airport since like noon. He says YOU HAVE TO TAKE IT TO THE BATHROOM WITH YOU, and also THE INTERNETS AREN'T FREE! WHERE IS MY FACEPAGE?

Enjoy your trip!

I'll be wearing underwear that could stand up to 2 days of wearing, too. :) So if you have to take me to dinner, I might be a little dirrrty.

Not that I'm rooting for you to get stuck in Cinci. I think we'd all much rather be in Hawaii than southwestern Ohio right now. ;P
