I haven’t flown in ages — I haven’t even been to an airport in a long time except to pick my husband up from a business trip at the curb. I’ve heard about heightened airport security, though, on the news.

This morning we got up at 4 a.m. to take Jason to an airport an hour away for his flight to CA for the summer. After he went through the security checkpoint, we waited around in the lobby for a while to make sure he didn’t have any trouble (cell phones are so wonderful!!) As we waited, I found the ladies’ room. I saw what I thought to be a uniformed female airport employee waiting outside the stalls. As one occupant left the stall, the airport employee went in. I thought, “Wow, this is really high security if they’re checking behind people in the bathrooms!”

After a few minutes, though, when she didn’t come out, I realized she was just…using the restroom.

There was a song called “Honey” by Bobby Goldsboro in my pre-teen years which included the line, “She was always young at heart, kinda dumb and kinda smart…” I asked my mom, “How can someone be dumb and smart at the same time?” She said, “Well…you’re kind of that way.” 🙂
