Y4 D330

As promised, a full recount of the long ass day that was yesterday. Left the house at roughly 11:50 and got gas. It was exactly midnight when I hit the freeway. For the most part the first leg of the trip was straight-forward. I wasn't too tired because I was going to Disney and sheer excitement was driving me. Disneyland and my woman? Yeah, I can stay awake. At 3 I started paying attention to my phone. At 3:05 I was supposed to start booping the woman to make sure she was up. Her flight left at 5:30 (my time, all this is in my time) and she would board at 5. At 3:03 she booped me. Perfect. She made it to the airport without any issues, through security, but then things happened. Her flight was delayed due to weather. She was starting to stress. See why I put her in first class? One less thing to worry about. She boarded about 30 minutes late, but she boarded. Okay, one issue done. By this time I was down in my old town waiting for my friend to show up. He got there about 7 and we had breakfast. His family owns two restaurants and a bar and the bar is connected to one of the restaurants. We sat on the patio since the weather was gorgeous. I had a wonderful veggie crepe. He refused to take money for the food too. After leaving him, I went to the store and bought B a baby pineapple. She had mentioned once it was something she thought I was making up. I had to prove to her it was real. I also stopped into Walmart and looked at point and shoot cameras. I don't feel like lugging my big camera around today and have wanted a small one anyway. Didn't like what they had and headed towards the airport as there is a best buy on the way. While I was waiting for Best Buy to open, B called. She made it to Dallas. We got her all situated at her next gate. So far so good. Go to best buy at 10 when they open. I found a nice Nikon bundle with tripod and SD card and case for $118 out the door. Not bad. I was able to use my Best Buy card which helped. After that I still had oh, 4 hours to kill. Sigh. I went to the motorcycle store and looked at replacement saddle bags. $200. Fuck that. Then I went to a grocery store near the airport and bought B some roses. I sat and had a shrimp taco while I waited. I also went and napped for 45 minutes. Yes, in the grocery store parking lot. Fuck it, why not? Around 1 I headed to the airport. She arrived at 2:10. We then went to the Verizon store. We decided since I had an extra line on my plan to put her on it. She is paying $45 a month for less features/service where as I already pay $10 a month for that line. She is planning on just giving me the $10 a month. Win/win all around. We were both so excited to see each other. Her face as she looked around at everything was priceless. After the phone store we headed to the hotel. The room is FUCKING PERFECT. Corner room, three walls of windows and a perfect park view. Yeah, B started bawling. She was so overwhelmed. After resting for a while we headed to Downtown Disney for dinner. We had a good dinner. I could tell this part was hard for her. She is used to basic stuff and my world is not basic when it comes to food. She managed though. After dinner we walked around and I took her to the disney store. Overwhelmed again. Wait until she is at the emporium in the park today. I have xanax on me just in case she explodes. She got disney shoes so now we match. I picked up a new AP pin and did some trades. After we walked back to the hotel and had dessert sent up. We were both so exhausted from being up we passed out at 9:30. All in all? AN EXCELLENT DAY. Now it's time to watch her explode in the park.
