Got to the airport yesterday... attempted to check in only to find out that my passport expired in FEBRUARY... yes. FEBRUARY 2009.

Had an incredible American Airlines lady named Diane help me out and I am able to get a flight out Monday night at 9pm. She was so wonderful!!!
SO between now and then. Actually Monday I have to drive down to Houston to get a new passport and get back for my flight Monday night.
You know... It never even crossed my mind that passports expire. So when i realized it had... it was just one of those things I could do absolutely nothing about at that moment. I'd say I handled it well.
AND I got to see my brother Elliot graduate from high school today!!!!! I am sooo proud of him and I am soooo glad I was there!!
So hopefully everything will sale smoothly and I will be in the Netherlands Tuesday night.
Really at this point all i can do is laugh about it. And I have to trust God because there is nothing I can do about this... Cheers!
EVERYONE ALWAYS CHECK YOUR PASSPORT EXPIRATION WHEN YOU FIRST DECIDE TO LEAVE THE COUNTRY!!!
Got this from the New York Times online. This was taken off the Tuscan shore and it made me happy:
Have a lovely day.
