Sitting in bed at 1 Am on Wednesday, talking on the phone, I had no idea when I would sleep next. I swear, I'd never been that excited/ecstatic/energized in my life. I swear I'm completely out of my tree. I swear, nothing was planned.
It happened like this:
Christian asked for my credit card number.
I gave it.
I drove to the airport and hopped on a plane.
Next thing I knew, I was hugging him in Kennedy airport at 9:00 the same morning.
So the hurricane wasn't as horrible as expected, just as I thought it would happen. It was sort of a bad excuse to do something great and unplanned.
I admit, it was sort of crazy.
What's crazier is, I'll be flying on nearly the same plane, hugging in the same airport, in the same month.
My only argument with myself is... My job. Taking off work to fly to Connecticut on such short notice is absolutely intollerable for any management to hear about. I made up a story and went on my merry way, still feeling somewhat guilty: however, a job is a job is a job is a job. Happiness is happiness. Doing this made me happy...
And besides, I've been bored for a month.
