Reading funny books while riding on airplanes can cause people to give you funny looks. A book I read recently, Fluke, by Christopher Moore, caused me to do this, well, pretty much the whole time I spent reading the book, which was about 3 flight legs between Atlanta and Dallas. I have my system, iPod and book. Excellent system. Especially when I'm stuck in a center seat which has been my luck for the last several trips to Dallas. All of the horrors of fat arms invading my arm rest just fade away. :-)
Anyway, here's a tiny tidbit that caused me to draw attention to myself. Probably the best simile I've ever seen, or at least it seemed at the time. I nearly spit Coke everywhere and I was in pilot uniform.
"Kona and Clay were standing to the side, following her movement like dogs watching meatball tennis."
Picture the event and you'll laugh just like I did.

Shower, Reganne's Birthday, and Moving...
That is the summary of my June and start of July.
This weekend is Reganne's 1st birthday celebration. (o: I hope we get a great picture with cake on her face!
Also I have my second shower on Sunday. Lydia did an awesome job on the invitations. They have gerbera daisies on them! (my favorite) I can't wait to see who comes and what wonderful things Dave and I will get.
Then there is the MOVE to Georgia. Patrick is being so wonderful and flying in to help pack, drive, and unload my things to GA. It's a loooong drive but he and I plan on taking turns. Plus we may make a sleep stop on the way.
Dave has been flying a real line schedule (where he flies with the same crew all month.) He really likes his crew and has enjoyed knowing exactly where and when he needs to be somewhere. Except of course when things are delayed because of maintenance issues or other things.
I'm excited about the move, new job, and the wedding! I can't wait! (o:
