Talk about this trip (1)
It's Monday at 0430 hours and I am cursing my alarm clock!!! Had to get up early to get Bella a walk and get showered so I can drop her off with Heather for the week. 0600 hours is way too early on my day off! Oh, well! So I get Bella sent off and I miss her already, but I'm getting excited for the coming trip. I'm at my desk, getting my latest case put together and updating my trip online. Only one more hour until we leave for Oakland airport. Our flight's at 1135 hours, but for some stupid terrorist reason we have to be there like 24 hours early or something like that. Gonna grab a cup of coffee and chill for the next 6 days. Stay tuned...
