I’m in Valdosta with my family for a family reunion. I tried to get my aunt and uncle to take me to the lake with them after dinner and they said it was okay – then they left me. So I’m stuck in the courtyard marriott with Mama, Daddy, and Travers – and we are all in one room, with one king bed, a pull out love seat, and a roll away. Travers and I are both ticked because we would have never come to this last minute family reunion if we had known there was nowhere to stay.
Travers: "I feel like I’m in hell. A small hotel room, with too many people, too much humidity, not enough air conditioning and nothing on tv. The only thing worse would be if we had a tornado and we all had to get into the bathroom with the mattresses."
Kate: "No, the only thing worse would be if we had a real natural disaster and had to stay here for two weeks with no water."
Travers: " I would be dancing on the ceiling."
the thin line between optimism and delusion...
