Ugh - I so did not want to get up this morning....I've only had about 3 sips of coffee so it's a good thing not many ppl come in to work this early and expect me to be all chipper ;) Not gonna happen yet! Anyhow - Clint got to come home for the weekend - and bless his heart it was a TRIP for him to get here! So anyhow he was supposed to be in Chatt Airport at 9:15p friday night....
So Wes and I got ready to go get him - we were going to leave early and stop by Lowes and Wally World...Clint calls before we leave and says he is still in Detriot MI.....long story short they end up sitting on that plane for like 4 hours....they won't let them off, they won't give them their in-flight snack, water anything! Isn't that illegal somehow? LOL - I've never flown so I know nothing about it. Needless to say one gal sitting by Clint was not too happy when she saw the Flight Attendants sneaking snacks and water to the 1st class ppl.....She threatened to "whip" one of the Attendants if she didn't get her something (she was in the ARMY) and Clint said he just knew it was about to get really ugly - but that little threat worked - I said they probably spit in the water but whatever I guess :)
So - he ended up missing his flight from Atlanta to Chatt cause it was supposed to leave at like 8:15 and he got to Atlanta WAYYYY after that....so they found a motel in DOWNTOWN ATLANTA and it's like 2 am....Clint hasn't had a cig since noon that day....he is dying or so he thinks and decides to walk around downtown atlanta to find a store that is still open to buy some cancer sticks. He finally finds one - it's full of ppl, cops even, and they all stop and stare at him as he comes in....the cashier finally asks him, "What in the world are you doing walking here at this time of night alone?" So he tells him his little story and anyhow the guy tells him which streets to avoid on his way back....so he starts back and within minutes according to him this HUGE Black Man, like freakishly huge walks up to him and bums a cig...turns out he works at the Airport and is walking home and even HE is skittish about Clint walking alone down there....so he escorts him back to his motel/hotel...Clint said they turned down one street and it's bars on each side all down it with hookers all over the place, coming up to him and saying stuff, the Huge guy told him to keep his head down and not to say anything at all to anyone, not no, hi or anything just keep walking. So he made it back finally - I asked him why the guy from work didn't walk with him - in my words the guy didn't have a death wish - it wasn't worth a cig!
So - they got to fly out that next morning and we ended up picking him up around 11:00 Sat...Bradley had a 30th bday party that evening so we were there at Ashley's til later that night...the babes played on the redneck slip and slide and had a blast. Then Sunday went to church with the other 20 ppl there (everyone at Bryant and RB) and then went to Jill and Dustin's to grill out and let the guys watch the race...back to church that night and then back to Jill and Dustin's where there was music being played :) You know I'm going to be wherever the music is :) a few other friends had shown up in my absence...so back home late that night - and here I am :) At work again - UGH - only 2 more days to go though!!!!
