Early Mornings and Funny Stuff


Today, Kuulei and I brought some of our friends to the airport. It was sad in some ways because we had to say goodbye to our friends the Weirs for at least awhile. The McDaniels and Schaffers will be back in a few months but the Weirs were done with Grenada for good so that was the last time we will see them in awhile. We woke up at 4:45. I purposely did not take any pills that I normally take to help me sleep so that I could drive while not being under the influence. Normally, it takes me 2-3 hours to fall asleep without pills. Even when I fall asleep I wake up a lot because I am such a light sleeper. Sure enough, I took 3 hours to sleep and woke up numerous times. It must be because of the two tours I did in 'Nam. Anyway, after getting patchy sleep I woke up in the morning and went to wash my sleepy eyes to try and pucker up a little. I looked in the mirror and to my surprise Kuulei was behind me in the distance making a thumbs up sign with a ridiculous smile on her face. Immediately, I thought of Ace Ventura. The resemblance is uncanny! It was a fun day and maybe that is because we did something out of the norm. It was great to talk to my friends and see how excited they were to see their families again and Kuulei always makes me crack up.
