A Few Tales From My Trip

I apologize to my reader(s) out there for my scant posting. I was away this weekend as the picture below indicated and there has been much going on in my world so much so that I couldn't seem to get around to posting. I will try to do better. No guarantees of coarse.

While I was flying home on Sunday night the couple next to me was constantly ordering diet Sprite. I found this odd for 2 reason first Sprite is so gross and 2 who likes to drink gross soda so often? I then realized they were adding something to their drinks from a thermos. I was caught watching them so they obligatorily offered me some of their mysterious alcohol. I of coarse said no because I have a strict policy against taking unmarked alcohol from strangers. By the time we landed they were both fully snockered and giggling all the way to baggage claim. I just found it interesting that you can't take nail clippers on a plane but you can take your hooch.

Also while in Charlotte I got to experience country living in the worst way. It seems my sister has a neighborhood rooster named Reggie. Well I thought it was so cool that this rooster was wandering around until approximately 5am on Sunday morning. I also thought that roosters only crowed once to wake up all the farmers but no, This thing cock-a-doodled for four hours straight. Even though I am quite the animal lover if I had a gun I would have shot it by 5:15am. According to my sister you get used to it and it doesn't wake you up after about 2 weeks which really wasn't much comfort. I swear he was right outside my window taunting me with this random calls. Thanks to Reggie I was pretty cranky and by the time I finally made it home to Providence that night I could barely stay awake although I sure Reggie was already well rested and gargling to prepare for Monday morning.
