The Fight, oh I mean, Flight to Columbus

We have spent four days traveling to Columbus, Ohio. We went from a small room on a cruise ship, to a small room in a very nice hotel, to small seats on an airplane.

All during the cruise Deneen says, “just sit hear and talk to me.”

This has always been very hard for me to do. Whenever I sit I am too busy thinking of everything I am not doing to enjoy it. Evidently Deneen can just sit on deck, and can just sit at the pool, and can just sit at dinner, and can just sit in the room. I don't know why we can't just sit in the casino. I did try my best though.

Did I mention that the hotel room was small? On Friday night, the last night on board the cruise ship, none of the boys packed, they just stayed out until 3:ish. On Saturday morning it was a mad rush to try and get everything crammed back into suitcases. In the hotel in Miami I think they just opened the suitcases and through everything on the floor. When we ordered room service the steward was actually taken aback. He literally took a step back. He had to step over a suitcase, a pile of clothes, and then there was no where to set the service tray down until Lucas cleaned off the top of it.

Well at about 4:30am we got up to catch our plane home. It was a mad rush to try and get everything crammed back into suitcases.

With little sleep we rushed to the airport, rushed through security, and rushed onto the plane. Now, evidently four days of travel can get a little stressful, though this was a pretty good travel experience as travel goes. But sometimes the stress of travel can make people a little cranky.

Just sit here and talk to me? This was about how the conversation went on the plane to Columbus. Not about. I wrote it down. This is exactly how the conversation went.

“You're too big for these seats.”

“What are you talking about?”

...“You are not listening to me.”

“What are you talking about?”

...”What are you looking at?”

“I can't believe this is our conversation I am going to write it down and put it on my blog!” And so I did.
