Were off...

Well today is the day.  We are leaving tonight for Portland and my hands are literally shaking right now and my stomach feels yucky.  I HATE to fly, for me its like getting on a really scary rollercoaster, having the guy come around and strap you in, and thinking why the heck am I doing this, GET ME OFF!!! 

I have medication but I know its not strong enough.  Last time I took 2 Valums and still got off a loaded plane, yes they had to open the door for me!  When they asked me why I needed off the plane I told them "theres a wierd guy, he looks like a terreriost."  You can imagine the looks everybody gave me.  In my defense the plane was also delayed for mechanical reasons.  Somehow I made it home:)  So I think I may forgoe the medication and try some natural melatonin. 

We plan on visiting family and friends before we head off to Seattle.  Paul is doing a tower climbing training on Bainbridge Island (the whole reason were going).  I will just have to go to Pikes Market and the Mall to kill the time:)  Were staying through the next weekend so we can do the "vacation thing" in Seattle.  I know we plan on going to the Seattle Center where we will go oup the Space Needle and have lunch and head over to the science center for a laser light show to Micheal Jackson, wooohooo.  Then I will drag Paul to the monorail where we will head over to Pikes Market and eat french crepes and truffles, mmmm.  I am nervous that I will forget somthing fun as right now I feel overwhelmed and loopy with all the things I have to do and organize. 

Im bringing my camera of course so I will take pictures of my truffles and crepes for ya all to see:)
