One More Sleep...

Its 10:17pm and i probably should be thinking about going to sleep. Just over 13 hours until our plane takes off. As exciting as the idea of 4 weeks away, there are also some things that scare the bageezas out of me. They are listed below, not in any particular order.

The 14 Hours on a plane with 2 kids fear
So its pretty obvious. Having 2 kids on a plane for 14 hours isn't going to be pretty. As organised as we are, you never know what they are going to be like. They could be perfect little angels, or they could be absolutely horrible. The reality is they are probably going to be somewhere in the middle. Still doesn't ease the fear they are going to lose their minds.

The every African American is not Michael Jordan fear
Kobe is a big fan of Space Jam. So much so, that i think that he thinks every African American that plays basketball is Michael Jordan. I have this fear we will be sitting somewhere quiet, and Kobe out of the blue is going to start pointing at someone repeatedly saying "Michael Jordan.. Michael Jordan". That isn't going to get us into trouble...

The fear of honking the horn
In the 3 weeks im driving, I will not be honking my horn. I have this vision of me honking my horn and someone getting out of a car and coming and pulling out a gun and shooting the place up. Maybe i've watched a few too many movies...

The fear of the ever expanding belly
Recently I had 2 weeks in Atlanta for work in which I managed to put on 6.8kg. With this trip being close to 4 weeks, there is a real possibility that i might need to buy an extra plane seat for the trip home.

So those are the fears. Not too many, and only 3 of them could end up with me being killed. Although, depending on how bad the kids are on the plane that could possibly be all 4.

See you all on the other side!
