Lincoln Noodle Analysis
...I just don't get this Space Stuff. We're talking Satellite Communication capabilities and the dude behinds me remarks how important it is to do a Lincoln Noodle Analysis and as both a historian and pasta fan, that just doesn't make sense at all.
But Ryan and Ainsley make perfect sense -- we're meant to be together a lot more often than we are. So I think I will get a job delivering vending machine snacks. For National Security, of course. But with less overseas travel.
Mommy reported that Ryan slept for most of the first leg, and was the cabin's entertainment committee during the second, though he got a little fed up by the last half-hour. But tons of people at baggage claim were remarking at how good he was on the flight and how cute he is...quite the hit.
While waiting for bags, I pointed Ainsley towards the Thrifty counter so she could be put on the contract. The same dimbulb who tried to steal money from me two weeks ago thought it would be funny to NOT tell her it was an extra $10 a day, and went ahead and charged her for the full three weeks I'M in town instead of just her seven days here.
So I'm looking forward to having certain choice words with Thrifty Inc.
As exhausted as they both were, Ryan still didn't get to sleep until 9 or 10 which was 11 or 12 his time. And then woke up at 6:30. Rarin' to start that vacation.
We ate breakfast in Monument, lunch in Littleton, and dinner in Denver, seeing old friends from previous assignments or my college days at each stop. One remarked how weird it was that we used to be college numbnuts (I'm paraphrasing) and here we are with kids. Of course, we started college 19 years ago...
After driving through a snowstorm on the way back and Ryan SICK and TIRED of being in his carseat so having to drive 35 on the freeway not helping, Ryan found his fourteenth wind at the hotel and didn't bother getting to sleep until 10:30. It is remarkable how Not Interested In Snooze this boy gets at night, clearly not taking after his mother. He's such a joy the other 22 hours in the day, just not those last two hours when he's doing everything in his power to stay awake. Suggestions are welcomed.
...perhaps the guy said "Link and Nodal Analysis."

You could drug him.
Benadryl works, I'm told.
Suggestion per Ryan getting to sleep: STOP singing Metallica to him!! My Dad put us to sleep by strumming chords on his guitar. Darlene B.
