PJ: Feel free to join in now.
FINALLY, we land. I send Peej a text "We're here."
She texts back "Just to warn you, my sister wants to come too"
Warn me? Is her sister a stealthy ninja? a pasty shut in? a cursing sailor? A CARBON COPY OF PJ?
I text back "SISTER? DARN!! Dh is putting the axe away as we speak."
Peej texts back "Huh?"
I text back "smile and nod sweetie, I'll 'splain when you get here." *sigh*
Now, I'm a little nervous. I get that way when I meet new people. Mr. Trollop is cool as a cucumber. I respectfully submit exhibit A:
We are waiting at the arriving flights door. I spot them pulling up. I tell dh "Snap a pic of when we first meet." PJ gets out of the car. "It's so nice to finally meet you!" ((big hug))
I look at Mr. Trollop. He's sitting there. No pic. HUH?
"Oh now?" he says.
"No, 5 seconds ago. Moments over."
dang it.
Hollywood eyes us. I see her. Don't think I don't, 'cuz I do. (did that sound like her Peej?) I guess we look normal-ish. Formalities complete, we hop into the car and drive a completely nonscary, slow paced, non abrupt lane changing drive to..............
the gas station. tapping foot impatiently. I've got an agenda. Cpt. Jack, Brer Rabbit, move it people!
Apparently gas is a hotT commodity to hotT college chics. Mr. Trollop offers to put the gas in the car. A cowboy and a gentleman? Hollywood tries to pay for the gas. Laughable! She doesn't know dh. Wouldn't even think of letting her pay for gas she used to pick up her sisters imaginary friends from the airport.
I think I can finally say FINALLY (again), we are headed to WDW property. Old Key West aka New Lock East. (there may or may not have been a conversation on what the opposite of a key was) We check in and receive our
DDP's and hotT college chick papers AND our shipped luggage. I think Hollywood was impressed that we shipped our luggage. or indifferent. one or the other. she's a hard read. lol
At this point PJ and I are already laughing like old friends. I don't think the guy at the counter knew quite what to make of us. Neither did Hollywood. Neither did Mr. Trollop. Neither did the other guests checking in. Neither did we.
We drop off the luggage in the room and snap the first of several pics. oko, here's the moment of truth. The gig is up. I can no longer pretend to be a hotT college chic. I am a babynurse and mommy to 4.
There we are. PJ on the left, me on the right? Do you see the look of joy on her face? That is b/c I just presented her with a gift. A coveted treasure. The pirates booty. What is this awesome gift? Cpt. Jack jammies. of course. Every hotT college chick owns a pair. Myself included.
HotT College chick rule number 34: own a pair of Cpt. Jack jammies.
