MAY 2ND, TUESDAY (DAY 13)
Nothing exciting went on the next day.
We had a delicious complimentary breakfast at the Club Room and took it back to the room

I didnt want to take a taxi to the airport, but it was too late to call the limo service, so we had no choice but to use the taxi service. At least it wasnt a Mears taxi, and the guy was pretty nice. We got to the airport, and I asked if they had an exit row available and they did, WOOHOO! That would make the five hour flight sooooooo much more enjoyable.
Jim was sad to be leaving
I had never seen one of these before and thought it was kind of funny
We waited around the airport for a while. I got a frappucino from the starbucks using a really old starbucks gift certificate Jim had in his wallet since Christmas, which I couldnt use before because Id been on atkins for so long.
Jim playing his Nintendo to pass the time
The sprawling suburbs of Los Angeles
Our flight was uneventful. Since we were heading backwards in time by three hours it was much easier to transition.
We got in to the airport and Jim turned his cell phone on, and he had three messages from his friends telling him the new superman trailer was up. Great right when we cant get to the internet
Jims mother met us at the baggage claim, and she hands me my new Costco card. Not exactly what I was expecting, but thanks
Jim drove and traffic took FOREVER. I mean traffic in LA is always bad but it was worse then usual that day. On a good day, we can get from the airport to home in 45 minutes, but that day it took us an hour and forty five minutes, it really sucked.
We got home and my dog did not seem happy to see me at all. He was mad at me. When Im gone for a little while, he acts all excited like he hasnt seen me in years, but when I leave for a long time he pretends like he doesnt know who I am. Jerk.
I did some unpacking and some laundry and looked through the mail. I didnt expect anything important to arrive, but I got something from the school Ill be attending in the fall. I had known I was accepted to be a Teaching assistant in the Fall, but wasnt expecting anything in the mail at all. Well I got a letter from them extending the invitation and telling me the tuition award and the stipend I would receive and all that, but then HOLY CRAP they have to receive the letter signed and returned by may 5th. Just great!! Well the Post offices were already closed, which meant I would have to go the next morning, on May 3rd and overnight it. Talk about cutting it close!! Thank goodness I had come home for that day, or I would have been royally screwed. We relaxed and chilled the rest of the day, nothing important or otherwise exciting happened.
