Home again

I just got back from my baby brother wedding back in sunny and not too hot California. Between getting a sister, spending some quality time with Someone, and catching up with a bunch of family, it was busy but quite nice.

Of course, it didn't exactly start off right. I had a 6:40 AM flight out of an airport about an hour from house. Which means that I had to get up at 3:45. I set my alarm, got to bed early, and woke up all nice and gently only to realize it was 6:17. Ack! Several minute of blind shrieking panic latter, I pulled it together long enough to call the airline, find out about stand by options, and race out to the car where I called first Someone, to tell him I would be coming in latter, and them my parents, to tell them I would be missing the rehearsal diner. Of course I was hysterical, and it was only 3:45 in the morning on the West Coast, but what else was I going to do? I'll never this one down, that's for sure.

It all worked out ok, I made it, I got picked up ok, and it was all fine, but I had a really hard time sleeping for the rest of the weekend, terrified as I was that I would oversleep and missing the wedding/family BBQ/plane back/whatever. Oh well.

Anyhow, I must get unpacked and unwound. I'm starting a new little lace bedjacket/sweater thing for myself, the pattern got here while I was gone and I can hardly wait to start. I love lace knitting. And this bedjacket thing looks like it has some serious potential.
