Booked!

 

We’re going to California.

As usual, we booked the trip with our usual idiocy.

“I’d love to go,” Kathy said, “But it’s a long flight and I just don’t think I can handle it. So, it looks like you’re on your own.”

So, I took it like a chore - a simple business trip.

I booked my flight and the hotel - the ceremony is at the hotel - and I casually mentioned it.

“Did you book my flight too?”

I referred her to the above statement that she made just hours before.

“I was thinking that I should be there, though. It’s kind of a big deal.”

Yeah.

The beauty of marriage.

“Well, it’s in California. You can’t just decide to go the week before.”

“Do you not want me to go?” She asked.

“Of course, I do, but YOU decided not to go.”

“I’ll go.”

I laughed.

A few hours later, we were fully booked, and then the ideas started flying.

Griffith Observatory, Santa Monica Pier, Catalina Island, Bus tour of the stars homes, Melrose, Beverly Hills.

“What do you think?”

“I don’t know. I have to make a speech at the event. After that, I’m down for whatever.”

“Well, I’ll keep looking.”

That will be great!
