Airport Blooper

So I just got to the airport in San Antonio, I went to check in with Frontier, and they said that my bag was 5.5 lbs over the limit so he could charge me $75 extra or I could remove 5.5 lbs worth of stuff. I know how cheap my husband is and really, I could buy everything in my suitcase for around $75 so I decided just to remove the excess. So I knelt down (in my skirt mind you) on the floor in front of the counter and we went through what stuff would weigh the most that I could get rid of. After a lot of trial and error I finally ended up throwing away my shampoo and conditioner and Caleb's 49ers beach towel =) mine too but his was a lot smaller than mine and carrying a hard back book that I finished last week with me through the flight. Kind of funny but frustrating. The employees were super nice but I'm sure my face was more than red from embarrassment. That's my crazy airport story. I’ll be home tonight and Caleb will be back tomorrow. Two weeks of vacation is fun but a little too long. =)

Becky, we do that almost every time we fly. I dig out our bags right in front of the ticket lady and everyone else just so I don't have to pay $50 or $75. Nothing to be embarrassed about.

Haha. Smart to remove the stuff instead of pay that ridiculous amount of money. I am glad two weeks of vacation is too long for you. I am hoping it's because you miss someone that you left at home ;)
