V-Day Weekend

So this weekend I went back to St. George, and it was like going home again. I had missed the area so much that I was giddy when I saw it from the windows of the plane and for more than just seeing Ing though that was the major thing on my mind. It was our first Valentine's Day together since we hadn't been in the same area last year after the parental crap of splitting us apart. Thus I wanted to make it special for her. I bought her a bear and Fame as I knew she wanted that. Jelly Beans and a picture frame with one of our latest couple pictures as well. I also bought her a special gift. Even though I thought it was corny, I bought some fake rose petals to sprinkle on the bed for V-Day night. She loved it though so it made it better. We went on a double date with her best friend Cassie and Cassie's boyfriend Josh to Red Robin and to see the movie Valentine's Day. First double date ever, and I really enjoyed it. The movie was actually pretty good and funny. I also saw Sherlock Holmes with her, which I loved, and New Moon which besides the Edward parts (lol) was actually pretty good. Taylor Lautner is actually a pretty good actor. I can see him going someplace in the future and not just seen as "The Twilight Guy" like Pattinson.

The trip back to Sac was just horrid. The flight from St. George to Salt Lake City was fine and quick. From SLC home...well that is another story. Right away when I got my boarding passes in St. George I saw that my flight that was to leave at 11:17 am was delayed to Noon. That was okay, not a bad delay. I get to Salt Lake and see it's been delayed a half hour more. Was a bit miffed but dealt with it. Turns out the delay was cause they had no crew....figure that. Then they board us to leave at 12:25.....and a flight from Cincinatti is late with people that need to transfer so we had to wait for them. As they are finally boarding...the pilot announces that there is a mechanical glitch on the plane and they will try turning it off and then on like a computer to reboot. Apparently that didn't work so they had to go pilfer a part from another plane after a half hour of the on and off game. Then we had to wait twenty more minutes for them to go fill out paperwork for the part switch and call corporate with the information. Finally at 1:30 (two damn hours after I should have been in the air) we were taking off for a long hour and forty minute bumpy crappy cramped ride. Thanks a lot for that Delta. Glad my $413 was so worth it.

I'm ready for moving to St. George soon and all that will come with that. Made some plans in my head today for my future. My batteries are re-charged from seeing my gorgeous Ingela, and I'm ready to tackle the world again. Bummed to be back in Cali, but it won't be for long so I have that to look forward to. I'll just call this a stopover before my full move in like a month and a half. Come on Financial Aid, come through! lol. So expect to see stories from me and new work on a book (had major inspiration on my horrid plane ride home) and much much more!
