A few days ago, I was booking an early birthday present for Andrew and the lady on the phone was like, "Just keep in mind that you
cannot go out the night before you do this." And I was like, "What? New Year's Eve? OF COURSE NOT. I wouldn't get my husband inebriated
the night before surprising him with the chance to fly an authentic World War II airplane. I would totally
not do that." And then I felt a
teensy bad for Andrew because I realized he had no idea what a boring New Year's Eve we are in for and so I actually considered stocking up on some Fat Tire and Romeo + Juliet's and just spiking the beer with a double dose of Dramamine. But the thing is, I don't actually know how to properly drug someone, exact dosing and combinations and
yada yada, so I decided to just tell him about his present early instead. You know, easier.
He didn't even ask about New Year's Eve, and I feel way better knowing that he won't be flying a vintage plane four hours after Twelve By Twelve played naked while dancing to Prince's 1999 in a bedazzled tiara. Not that he would even do that.
He's not a big Prince fan.

ACK! That's super cool! They had an airshow up here a few months ago and my dad went up in one - he said it was a total "bucket list" thing to do and he LOVED it. What an awesome idea!!! Brian's b-day is actually ON New Years Eve, but we always just stay in, even though everyone else in the world is partying it up. So at least you know you won't be the only ones spending a boring evening in :) Can't wait to hear about it!!
that is awesome. happy birthday Andrew! merry christmas.
