I drove to Boston to pick up Laura tonight, got a gate pass, and hung out at the gate and waited for her flight to arrive..Im getting pretty good at this airport stuff....I found my way around there, but showed up 2 hours early like Alaska Air told me to, and went through security in 10 minutes, and waited 2 hours..Oh well..It was worth the wait though..It was so good to see her walking off the plane with Scooter her Pug walking up ahead of her..Then we went to baggage check, and I pick up one bag, and its heavy as hell..I looked at Laura and I said.."Rocks right?"..Yup.. thats what was in there..(ya get to know this stuff after a while..)..She is an avid rock enthusiast..So now we've got three cats, and a dog..The cats dont know what to make of him yet..They'll figure it out in time

How was your week?
