Five Things Make a Post
Mar. 8th, 2019 08:42 amFive things I have done within the last few months, for the first time ever without adult supervision:
1. Taken a load of rubbish to the municipal tip.
2. Run a load of dishes through a dishwasher.
3. Mown a lawn.
4. Driven through an automated car wash.
5. Gone on a plane trip.
(The plane trip was, unsurprisingly, the most stressful one, although only in the planning stages; the day itself went without a hitch. I was alarmed the night before to receive a text message informing me that my flight had been cancelled and rescheduled, and then bemused to discover that it had apparently been rescheduled to the exact same date and time as it had already been scheduled for. It turned out what had happened was that the number of passengers booked on the flight had been low enough for the airline to assign a smaller aircraft than the one originally assigned, which from the booking software's viewpoint made it a different flight that happened to be at the same time.)
