Fun Times at the Airport

Oh boy we had a grand old time at the airport this morning. Apparently when you have a baby, you have to check in at the "regular" counter, not the "kiosk". Never mind that in this case the "regular" counter and the "kiosk" are side by side, and the signs above the "regular" counter said "not open". On top of that we were a little crunched for time. Oh and then the guy at the "Kiosk-now-turned-ad hoc-regular counter" told us we needed to show him LG's birth certificate, immunization records, footprint, eyelash sample, three favorite toys, and a recent home-made iMovie. All to prove that he's under two. SHeeeeesh. How about LOOK AT HIM AND REALIZE HE'S UNDER TWO!! Unless of course he's some kind of alien experiment, in which case he could be anywhere from 3 months to 200 years old. Maybe that's what they were checking for.

To their credit, the Southwest employees were very nice the rest of the way. As we were running to our gate, there was a man halfway there who used his swanky radio to signal the other guys to wait for us, and gave us cups of gatorade...well not really gatorade, or anything at all really, but they were nice.

Traveling is definitely good on a marriage I say. Especially when you're in a hurry. Then it's extra good. : )

LG's many faces

Here's some recent pictures you can chew on for a while:

Robots in disguise

We're almost done moving in to the new apartment, and I only needed two back replacements to get the job done. It wasn't all work though. Isaac and I saw Live Free or Die Hard and Transformers, two ostensibly testosterone oriented movies. Incidentally, one of the computer hacker characters in Die Hard is the same actor who plays the Mac in the PC/Mac ads. Is that typecasting? I loved both of them as kind of highly entertaining "check your brain at the door" summer movies. They were both really funny too.

The apartment is nice. We're kind of outside the city a little surrounded by a bunch of trees, which I like. I have a summer class in research and stats that started this week. I miss N and the baby a lot. She has been sending me pictures every day on the phone to tide me over though. : )
