DO NOT WANTs of Travel

March 22nd, 2010 Yvette No comments

In no particular order, these are truths that I wish had been falseths this last week.

  • Drove through a field of debris on the freeway a couple miles from the Salt Lake airport, which resulted in a flat tire
  • Ripped my right pinky fingernail almost all the way off while reaching into my luggage to remove my baggie of liquids
  • Like, seriously, about halfway down the nailbed. Bleeding and pain, bleeding and pain.
  • We accidentally left homemade fruitcakes (Ben loves them) and a pumpkin roll in the freezer instead of packing them in the suitcase
  • Read the departure time incorrectly for the first return flight, somehow ignoring/second-guessing what I did in fact know, and could have easily missed our flight had we not built in a lot of extra time
  • Didn’t get to see people or remember to do things (like pack homemade goodies) in the rush to make the flight one hour earlier than expected
  • Too much stress
  • Not enough sleep
  • Never enough time

On the bright side, we had delicious full-percentage beer with tasty BBQ dinner on Sunday night at a fairly busy bar/restaurant with my mom and loud alternative music I consistently loved. A refreshing change from my usual experiences in Utah.

And Cleveland radio stations, damn how I miss you.
