It's nice to have a place to rest your head

I'm headed to LA on Thursday morning. Once again my flights are well before the sun comes up. What can I say? They're always cheaper. I like flying in that direction because I leave at 6am, have almost a 3 hour layover and still get to LA by 11am. I wasn't entirely sure where I'd be staying but as of yesterday afternoon, I'm good to go.

I've got stuff planned from the moment I leave the airport. Two friends out there have had babies so I get to see them and make all sorts of cutesie/googly noises. The first is Jen and her baby, um, Robert III. Robbie? Rob? El Numero Tres? In the south he'd be Trip. Anyway I'm seeing them Thursday afternoon. Then Thursday evening I'm visiting with the people who's pool house in which I'm crashing. That was a bad sentence.

Anywhoodle, Ashlee's graduation is at 9am on Friday which is fine because I'm planning on staying on east coast time. So I'll have been up for 3 or 4 hours by then! After that is lunch with her family and that may be at their house. I'm still not 100% sure.

I might actually sit still on Friday afternoon. Christy has a half day that day so I thought we could relax by the pool and then take her dog Mandy to dinner at BJ's later that night. Mmm, avocado egg rolls!

Saturday am will be breakfast with Christy in Pasadena. The later will be lunch at Hurry Curry with Marie and new baby Gavin followed by boba and walking around Pasadena a bit. The afternoon will be with my friend Sarah most likely followed by dinner somewhere.

Wow, my trip is planned around meals. No wonder I weigh like 400 pounds.

Sunday I get up between 3:30 and 4 am, drive to LAX, return the rental, and sleepily make my way to my flight. There's an earlier flight from Atlanta to Charleston so I'm keeping my fingers crossed on that one.

I might actually be going back in July for the geekfest extraordinaire. We'll see. My friend offered to fly me there on her accumulated miles. Of course that all depends on work.
