No, actually our plan right now is to go to the airport early in an effort to increase our chances of getting to Vegas in time for our theater tickets. Including our flight, there are three flights scheduled for tomorrow which would enable us to make our connection in Denver. Of course, it's not unusual for all the flights in a day to be cancelled when it's snowing.
We'll see.
But hey, whatever, I'm on vacation.
*you do realize that I don't meditate, right?
