Dec 2nd: Sunday
(This is the last day of the trip. Click Here for the first.)
I wound up not really sleeping on the plane (surprise!). We landed on time, and did the whole deplaning, getting of bags, going through customs rigormorand for the last time. There was one last joke played on me though, just to remind me that I shouldn’t relax yet. Right after customs, I went to the bathroom. Right as I undid the button on my shorts, the button popped off, ricocheted off the wall and landed right in the toilet. Great.
Lugging all of our stuff down the halls and upstairs, we check into our next flight, check our bags and go through security. I grabbed my stuff after the checkpoint and started walking to the gate. I carried my shoes figuring that I’d just put them on at the gate. Well, that didn’t really happen, because as soon as we got to the gate, we found out that they already started boarding, so we walked right on the plane. I sat in my exit row seat, and busted out the PSP. On the way home, I beat Super Bomberman 2. Yes…
We landed on time, but as usual with Laguardia’s traffic, we sat on the runway for about 20 minutes taxing and waiting for the other plane to get out of the gate. Oh yeah, when we landed, it was 20 degrees and snowing. Everything was white. Nice little welcome back from NY.
When we got home, Corrine was sleeping on the couch. We briefly talked about the trip and played with the cats for a while and then decided to go out to brunch. It was just before noon, and one of our favorite places (Sunburt Cow) was opening for brunch shortly. This is the first time we’ve ever been up early enough to beat the crown. I had eggs benedict and a bottomless screwdriver. I was celebrating being home =).
When I got home, I changed into some comfortable clothes and passed out on the couch around 3:30pm. I woke up at 9:00am on the dot and got ready for work. Feeling very rested and ready, I jumped on the subway and showed up for work relatively on time.
What a trip.
