On Wednesday, Griffin came down to an RV show in Louisville at the fairgrounds. We planned to meet on Wednesday night after he arrived in town. When he got to Louisville, he called me that he had arrived and I mapquested the closest Hampton Inn by the fairgrounds (bad assumption on my part). So, we drove there. Our conversation via phone went something like this:
Me: Griffin we’re here–We’re in the lobby waiting!
Griffin: Great, be right down. (hangs up.)
Phone Rings.
Me: Hello?
Griffin: Where are you?
Me: Right here in the lobby (looking around the lobby–it wasn’t a very big one at that.)
Griffin: (pause as he’s looking) Um, no you’re not.
Directions from the desk clerk and another 15 minute drive to the south side of Louisville brought us to the REAL Hampton Inn and we’re able to spend some time with my tremendous brother. When we were going into that hotel, taped to the door was “no vacancy.” Either the RV show is something that I’ve yet to find out about its bigness, or there was something else going on–of what? I’m not quite sure.

Thanksgiving was such a treat! Michael and I Pricelined a ticket from Lexington, KY to Hartford, CT and got a great deal! The destination was to visit a great friend from college! We had such a blast–we left Monday and stayed until Friday! It was fun to meet her youngest boy as I’d only met the oldest boy 2 years ago! How fast they change! Flying back on Friday was so easy–no painful layovers, no delays, no hassles! I think it was so much better than having gone back on Saturday or Sunday! Great friends! Great food! Great fun! (of course, I didn’t take any pictures of all of us–just the kids! 🙂

Twice while being married, Michael and I have had our credit card numbers used illegally! Our credit card was canceled just yesterday for fraudulent activity on it. Shame. It’s not like I buy from shady sites on the internet…I buy from legitimate companies like Amazon, Ebay, Half.com (my personal favorite for books and such). Guess thieves just like our numbers. What I’d say to these people if I could catch ’em: “Work honorably for your money, jerk(s).” Yikes…I still have more online stuff to buy for Christmas–they messed it all up :)! What a hassle! At least we can be grateful that these days, credit card companies are good about monitoring weird card activity and stopping the craziness before they’re out a ton of money–and thankful, the card holder isn’t the one liable! Whew!
