Heading back to Libya for the Last Time!

Wednesday 7th, Got up around 7 this morning. I bought two more pair of pants at Sears this morning. Finished weeding in the backyard and sprayed weed killer. The backyard looks nice again. Prepared the house for a three-week leave. I had the leftover deli meat and a few beers for lunch. I left for the airport at 3PM. There was a very long line when I arrived. After about 15 minutes of the line barely moving an agent told me that I could use the bag check line. I got up to the counter and checked in my two bags. I asked the agent to book me through to Tripoli. He said the charge for the extra bag was only $60 for both flights. Then he surprised me by asking if I wanted to be bumped up to Premium Economy. Why yes! Then he changed his mind and bumped up to Business, way cool!! When I sat down at the gate, I noticed Tracy had sent me a message. She wished for a safe flight. I sent a quick reply and said I would send a longer message tomorrow when I got back. We boarded no issues. I ended up listening to the iPod most of the way. I got about two hours of sleep at the end of the flight.

Thursday 8th, We landed 30 minutes late because we were over an hour late taking off from PHL. I still had time to go to the V-Bar and order a small breakfast. I caught up on my journals, no WiFi signal though. The gate was on the other side of the terminal this time. Where it use to be. The flight was ok except I was seated in front of one of the families with a screaming kid. I managed to get maybe an hour of sleep. I was first in the customs line so I had to wait for my luggage. Got home and started to unpack. All of my cloths came back from the dry cleaners, finally. I think I have everything. I will need to wash my own clothes for now on if I can. Around 4PM I gave Gareth a call and went to his flat to chat for a while. I hooked up the iPod docking station to the Bose speakers. At first it would not work, then I removed the docking adapter, now it works fine. Went to dinner and started to feel tiered. I finished Tracy’s email then went to bed.
