Long trip. Getting across the border was actually very simple. I was nervous, but the man who processed me was so friendly, and I had all this extra info and he just said nope, he had what he needed (my parole papers to let an alien back into the country, sounds nice doesn't it!). He told me that it will be even more simple with my green card next time. Did I mention my green card arrived?
I found out in Vancouver that the girl in Comox didn't check my bags all the way to Virginia. I had an hour to get off the plane, get my bags, get on a bus in LAX, go to a different terminal, go through security again, check my bags, get my ticket and get on my flight. Not happening. I ended up in tears, frustrated, and they retagged my bags for me in Vancouver so they'd go all the way to VA. Good thing too, because I ran through the airport and I still just got to my flight as they were loading.
Sat beside a baby on my second flight, she was 9 months and kept her hand up the arm of my shirt for most the flight. She was sweet.
The third flight was the hardest. It was the one I ran to, I had to pee but had a window seat and two old people sleeping beside me and I didn't want to disturb them. I was so uncomfortable, just wanted to sleep. Arrived in Va at 7:30 VA time.
So good to see Tim. I love him so much. I saw him walking through the airport and my heart jumped a little. He took me out for breakfast since I was so hungry. My bags didn't make it from LAX, but the airport is delivering them tonight.
I slept for a little bit this morning, but not enough. I'll try to sleep a little more this afternoon. I'm guessing Tim will be working late because he crawled into bed with me for a while. So nice to be home with him.

It was so nice to see you, and I can't wait to hang our print. I wish I had a chance for another visit with you, I thought of it, but I was so sick and tired and busy and just ran out of time and energy. Next year!

I bet you're happy to have all the wedding stuff done and can now focus on your next exciting venture - the new house! *must.see.photos!* :D

I can imagine you are beat. I saw something set up at the millenium park and thought of you and how worn out you must be.
