Working Late

Aaron currently works for Alaska Airlines.  Right now he is working on some phone something or other that tells you when your flight is delayed or canceled.  Or something.  Sometimes tech speak sounds kind of like gibberish.  At any rate, last night at 2:42am I heard the text message sound on my phone.  Normally I turn my phone to silent when I go to bed, because sometimes crazy people who get up for seminary send me texts.  Last week I got two texts on the same day from different people, one at 5:55am and one at 6:00am.  If my phone would have had the volume I would have chopped them both.  Back to the story.  I get up, because although in my college and single days getting a text from someone at 2:42am was not necessarily cause for concern, I am now a married mother of two, so obviously someone had to be dying.  I get up to search for my phone in the front room and when I open my phone it turns out I got a text from Alaska Airlines letting me know my flight was delayed.  I crawl back to the bedroom to beat my husband, who is really happy that his programming is working.  I can’t say that I felt the same.
