Bitdefender doesn't like the unsecured wifi at the crap hotel this morning so no access with the laptop

I don't ever let my i s c & a aggie wife schedule the travel plans.  She can pick the items of interest at the destination, but if I don't make the actual travel plans, something always ends up wonky.

My wife scheduled a trip to Cincinnati tomorrow.  I grumbled.  Better to go than cause a ruckus.  Some birthday gig.  

I did talk her into a trip to Blue Ash Chili, she had scheduled lunch at Maggiano's interestingly enough.  She really likes her priest, who is now retired, and we try to meet up for lunch when we're there.  I like him a lot also.

My wife was always the one in her past life that had to make and be in charge of travel plans. 

I've always been the same. 

That was a responsibility she was quite happy to cede to me when we met. She's more than capable, but she knows I am as well and that she'd rather not...

Yeah we had the one "incident" where she planned our honeymoon because I was working and she had finished grad school and had a job lined up but at the moment had plenty of time.  She took care of everything, and I just let her do it, and let her tell me the exact plan.

So when it was time to go, she told me to pack up, and we got all our stuff together, and then we arrived at the airport... exactly one day early.

Which, as she pointed out, was better than one day late...
