    safe and sound
    i'm on my sister's couch, where i slept, coughing non-stop. it is 8 a.m. here.

    we got on the plane at 7:30. while boarding, they made an announcement that due to very strong headwinds, we could not make it across the country without stopping for fuel, and we would therefore be stopping in OK City to gas up. This stop would put approximately 1.5 hours onto our trip, which would mean landing at 12:45.

    Well, they lied. It put 2 hours on our trip. And then they decided to go home and not put our bags in the airport. or at least that's how it felt. we waited for about 45 minutes for them. then another 45 minutes for a taxi.

    so yesterday, when i said we would get in at "effectively 3 a.m." -- i mean, actually, 3 a.m. in the new time zone. so i got into my sister's around the time that beloved's alarm was going off. nice.

    i slept as well as one can when unable to breathe through their nose, and when breathing through their mouth makes their throat tickle and makes them cough.

    one of my first stops today is a pharmacy to get some night time so you can rest medicine. even though i usually hate the way it makes me feel.

    the girls did very well, considering the circumstances. they slept a lot, although fitfully. i slept about 2 hours, tops. then another 4 at my sister's.

    meanwhile, beloved's going to find out how strong of glasses he needs for his old-man eyes, and i can't wait to hear how blind he's become.

    we're taking off for wine country within the hour to stay with friends until tomorrow. strange to have only seen my sis in passing last night and this a.m., but we'll be back tomorrow for many days of boundless fun and adventure. i'm not sure if the adventure is going to include tattoos or not ... we haven't discussed it. her love was just here from another country, where he's living, and she was rather all-consumed by that visit. so i am unsure if she was able to get anything lined up.
