Here we go. I leave for the UK tomorrow, am no where near being packed yet, have a bunch of housework that I want to get done before I leave, have to come into work for an early meeting before going to the airport, and on top of all that, my pre-flight nerves are working overtime right now. I don't fly well, and the whole situation of flying stand-by and whatnot is really working my last bit of stamina.
I've got a 6 hour layover in Philly, so I think I'm going to try and use the time productively and go into the city for a little shopping. The R1 goes right downtown, so that shouldn't be a big deal for an hour or two. I will make sure that I am at the airport nice and early so that I can be sure of getting a spot on the plane. Of course, it's not the ride over to the UK I'm worried about. Seats are going to be tight on the return trip, and I just hope I'm able to snag one!
Seeing as I am scheduled to arrive in Manchester at 9am UK time Saturday morning (4am local DC time) I'm guessing that there is now about a 36 hour countdown starting just about now to when I am going to be a quivering, jibbering, emotional mess. I feel bad for whatever immigration officer I have to deal with. Wish me luck!

Enjoy yo' trip! Give DH a kiss for me!
You should just take the train down from Philly and save the hassle of flying! It's only like 3 hours.
