Meanwhile, I'm going to wait on the flight tickets, until after further discussion.
Seemed like a big step to me, but the most stressful part was clicking the box on whether to have the tickets held in will call, or mailed to me. I chose mailing, for a couple of reasons. Will call tickets need photo ID and the credit card you used to order them, and if I don't end up going, they'll just go to waste. If they come in the mail and I don't end up going, I can just send them to my buddy.
Plus, this way I have to tell her that I went ahead and ordered the tickets, which is one of those things that I might have tried to hide from her as part of my "don't make waves" NG manipulations.
Well, don't know if I'll be posting this weekend or not, but thanks everyone for your support and differing viewpoints. It means a lot to me.
Hairdog, who is heading out early this orange-ozone-alert Friday.
