crazyness in the land of “what was i thinking?”
By heather | August 21, 2007
Today I made a potentially stupid and crazy decision. If it works it will be brilliant, but if it goes bad, oh, it will be SOOOOO bad.
In two weeks, Alex and I are going to NY for my best friend’s baby shower. Since it’s a 10 hour drive, I thought I would check into flights. Not seriously as in “We’re going to fly” but just to see. Because usually flights that I want are way beyond what I am willing to spend.
But this time…BEHOLD! A cheap flight round trip for $260! And not just at 5:30 in the morning – at normal times! From the airport 5 minutes away! Before I hit the purchase button, I stared at the screen for a long, long time.
I made Brett get off the phone to discuss it again with me. I pictured myself changing a poopy diaper in an airplane bathroom and stinking up the entire plane.
I pictured Alex crawling along the airport floor (UGH) while I struggle and juggle our bags. Pictured us sitting on the runway delayed for eternity while a bitchy 20-something (like myself not so long ago) gives us dirty looks. Pictured us in our shared seat sitting next to a 400 pound sweaty businessman with greasy strands of hair and a wheeze. And yet I purchased it anyway.
What the $%*! was I thinking?!?
