Well, I guess I am ready to buy my new ticket.

Since I have to buy a new ticket, which in a way kind of makes me happy because Rodrigo and I get to travel together!! Before, he was going with spirit air and I was still on for my LAN Chile flight, but now we get to go together!! I am very excited!! We are planning on taking a bus from here to Peru with a stop at Machu Pichu one of Ro's dreams. Although I love history and I have never really been in a place that old! From Lima, we will be flying to Chicago. We haven't decided what to do from there because I have enough Skymiles for a free ticket from Delta, but just for one free ticket. The bus from Chicago to St. Cloud only costs $48 each so we will probably do that. We are still unsure about the dates, but with the buses, we don't need too much of an advance, but if we get our tickets from Greyhound seven days in advance, we will save some money. So we are going to give a guess date and if we end up changing the date we will have to do that. Of course this is like a 3-4 day journey, but I think it will be fun for us to just relax and travel. Maybe we can even stay in Chicago for a night and hang out there. Overall, I hope it will be alright with Zoe, my biggest worry at the moment. I just hope everything with my visa runs smoothly and we can get the heck out of here sooner rather than later. I know by April I will be panicking about time and trying to get everything done for the wedding. We won't be in the US til the end of April so pretty much we have May, June, July and the first week of August!! For a typical wedding, this probably wouldn't be a problem, but for us, we have to coordinate everyone's flights, where they are staying, who's picking them up and how we are going to get them everywhere! Then we will have the final fittings for Romina and Rocio, my two Chilean bridesmaids as well as everything for the tuxes for the FIL, three Chilean groomsmen, and one Chilean usher. I feel like it is too early to start worrying about such things now, but it is so exciting I have a hard time locking all this in a box in my mind!


I would like to add this: Ro and I were going home yesterday, he came to pick me up at work and we were in the subway, we pretty much ran to get into the last doors before they closed, well so did a man and woman behind us. We made it in, the woman made, but the guy got pinched in the doors. So this happens all the time, what I thought was extremely hilarious was that the woman almost started crying because she didn't have enough space to stand and hold one of them poles where she wanted to. Like she should get to hold it right where it feels right to her when there are already 15 hands holding on. Of course when she did that little if I slide my hand close enough to that girl's hand she'll move. Well, I am the wrong girl to pick for hat lady! You can make faces at me and try and push my hand out of the way as much as you want, I am not moving for you. The man started yelling at some boys and telling them it was their fault that he got pinched in the doors. Well, the boys were sitting on the floor, but even if they weren't, the lady still didn't have room to hold onto the pole, and the man still would have been pinched by the door. They were the kind of people that stick there noses in the air while saying "look at me, look at me, get out of my way, I am the fucking shit!" Assholes.
