On the road…
Tomorrow I get on an airplane for the first time since I got sober. I’m breaking out of my safe little world and venturing forth to a tradeshow (it’s been years since I worked a show) and then for a little r-n-r with the kiddos, my Ps and my best friend’s family. I’m excited and really frightened. I’m confronting a bunch of “issues” in the next few days and feeling just a wee bit apprehensive. It’s one thing to site behind my computer screen and work in my little cyber-marketing cocoon…it’s quite another to get back out there and interact with our customers and partners. Like a grown up. Heady shit, man.
Then there’s Disneyworld with the kiddos. That should be a blast. Max probably doesn’t remember when we went there a few years ago and little Abby has never been. Nervous about Paradise Island with the grown ups, but I think I can handle it. If not, I’ll leave. Pretty simple, really.
After DW, we’re going to Missouri to celebrate my Great grandma’s 100th birthday. She’s an amazing woman and I can’t wait to see her again. And hopefully I won’t have a panic attack like the last time we flew into that effing tornado in Kansas City!
Wish me luck!

Be careful, but it is not bad traveling on an airplane, besides that cart doesn’t carry enough liquor. Bring somthing to occupy your mind.
Good luck Rusty! You will be fine
