Coke

It's not often that you see your name on a Coke bottle, but we were there at the gas station and sure enough, there was Maddie's name on a Coke bottle!

So yeah, we bought it.  Kind of quiet day today, with a little rain on and off, the theme of the whole week really.  Maddie is frantically wrapping up the senior year with classes and studies, the latest energy being poured out into her economics class, which sounds pretty thrilling, right? No, me neither.  Anyway, Mom and I were over at the doctor to look at the possibility of a surgically implanted tiny heart monitor for Mom, who is not entirely enthused with the idea.  I'm not sure who would be, but it's tentatively set on the calendar to be implanted some time after the cruise in May.

Speaking of the cruise, tonight we did our onboard registration for the upcoming cruise, which is this crazy process.  All these passengers from everywhere simultaneously race online when the clock strikes midnight, frantically uploading images of passports and head shots and filling out credit card information all so they can have an earlier boarding time on the boat.  We got a 11:45am slot, which I'm thinking is probably about average?  The thing is not to register later on, as you wind up with a boarding time hours later.  Getting on hours earlier gives you more time to be on the boat hours earlier and explore, and most importantly, eat crab legs earlier.  Okay, that's just me.  Anyway, I was there at midnight on the computer getting all that done, and we're good to go for a few more days.  That's right, in a few more days I'm up at midnight again, hopefully getting signed up for a slot for the Royal Gathering, where the Disney Princesses meet in the atrium area.  We'll see how that goes - I'll do my best.  It's one of the more stressful things about these Disney experiences, the online races to get treasured slots for this or that.

Anyway, moving on, Mom did a lot - and I mean a lot - of laundry today, working through the Easter production costuming.  I'm having some tough tooth trouble, which might warrant a closer look at a dentist next week.  I think something has been damaged somewhere, and it involves a nerve, which is never good.  I'm on pain medication a lot.

We didn't really watch anything tonight, nor did we have time to read if you can believe that.  Maddie was just so involved in studies and so "locked in" that she was up late working hard in that direction.  We did say our prayers though, and we all got to bed - well, most of us - early for a good night's rest.
