Speaker 1: This is mommy and me, okay.
Speaker 2: So we went to Australia together and we went to
Speaker 2: Sydney and Melbourne, and like most moms and daughters who
Speaker 2: are sick of each other, we are laying on top
Speaker 2: of each other in about like a sixth of my
Speaker 2: bed and the doggies are on my feet, and we
Speaker 2: love each other. We had a great trip and there
Speaker 2: were so many things. Brinn held in her hand. The
Speaker 2: most valuable pearl in the world. It's a past ballet pearl.
Speaker 2: It's been in the Smithsonian. It's it was worth I
Speaker 2: think two hundred and fifty million dollars in nineteen ninety eight.
Speaker 2: But it was this magical experience where we saw this
Speaker 2: business that had been around for decades and it's a
Speaker 2: family business and they supply like ninety five percent of
Speaker 2: the pearls on watches and buttons and things, and it
Speaker 2: was just amazing. Another day we went to see Camilla
Speaker 2: the designer and saw her whole infrastructure, and bring came
Speaker 2: to my appearances and we did everything. We ate everything,
Speaker 2: we did Vegromite, we did all the lollies, which is
Speaker 2: the candy, we did the Tim Tam their cookie, and
Speaker 2: the Tim tam Slam and we had a great time.
Speaker 2: So I thought we were landing at six and we
Speaker 2: weren't leaving until eleven.
Speaker 1: We just wanted to get home and see the dogs.
Speaker 2: Traveling twenty hours, so I go to to change the flight.
Speaker 2: So I changed the flight, and I say a brit well,
Speaker 2: you know the flights not till the original flight was
Speaker 2: not till eleven, So we're saving all this time?
Speaker 1: And what did you said?
Speaker 3: Flight was at nine twenty thirty five?
Speaker 4: But you know what, because I thought it was it
Speaker 4: was at ten, so we would have saved like fifty
Speaker 4: five minutes, which is an hour which we should have
Speaker 4: done the.
Speaker 2: Door No, because I would have spent all this money
Speaker 2: to save that. I'm saying I was paying to change
Speaker 2: a ticket, no, and I was going to get a credit.
Speaker 2: I thought I was saving like two hours and that
Speaker 2: meant a big deal to get home tonight and not
Speaker 2: be like home late.
Speaker 1: So we didn't realize you have to like go walking through.
Speaker 3: The thing with like ten thousand bags.
Speaker 2: So we fight over whether to get the trolley or not.
Speaker 2: And I said not to get the trolley, and Brin,
Speaker 2: the adult, said to get the trolley because we had
Speaker 2: five bags, three big bags, two little bags, and my
Speaker 2: top bag falls off really easily, and it's very annoying.
Speaker 2: And so and in the airport, like morons, they do
Speaker 2: on a flat floor. They just have like carpet and
Speaker 2: like bumpy things, and it's really irritating. So anyway, to
Speaker 2: switch flights, you got to get off, you got to.
Speaker 3: Walk to another terminal, or you got.
Speaker 2: It, get your bags, go through customs, which is really better.
Speaker 1: If you're traveling, you want to do it.
Speaker 2: You want your layover to be in a US city
Speaker 2: because the last thing you want to do is you've
Speaker 2: been traveling twenty hours and still have to go through customs.
Speaker 1: So I did like that.
Speaker 2: The layover involves getting the bags. It's annoying because you
Speaker 2: have to recheck them, but that's that's what happens anyway.
Speaker 2: So then we were going over to Delta, which was
Speaker 2: two terminals over, and we're walking outside and we're in
Speaker 2: this sweatshirt and we're pushing.
Speaker 1: The wheelie over. The coffee on you.
Speaker 2: I spilled coffee on me because I insisted on getting
Speaker 2: coffee bean. I got the moca, you got the blended mocha,
Speaker 2: And I told her she's the adult. She said, no, Mom,
Speaker 2: this is not a good idea. And I said, I
Speaker 2: just want a coffee. I just want a coffee. I've
Speaker 2: been on the flight.
Speaker 1: Well I think it was a good idea.
Speaker 3: I'm really good.
Speaker 2: But it wasn't a good idea because I had coffee
Speaker 2: over myself. So then we had to go outside to
Speaker 2: two terminals down and I was trying to push the
Speaker 2: trolley and coffee was spilling over my arm.
Speaker 1: But I wanted the coffee. And it was a disaster.
Speaker 2: And that's when Brin said, wait, Mom, we're talking about
Speaker 2: nine thirty five or saving twenty five minutes.
Speaker 1: And I go, excuse me, I just.
Speaker 2: Spent all this money to change a ticket to save
Speaker 2: twenty five minutes. So I we're sweating because I have
Speaker 2: the hot coffee. My arm pits are sweating. We go
Speaker 2: back with these trolleys and we're falling and it's not fun.
Speaker 4: We went to the elevator to get into the airport
Speaker 4: from the Delta terminal.
Speaker 2: Oh okay, right now, okay, Oh I thought we were
Speaker 2: going okay, So she's right. So now we went to
Speaker 2: go two terminals over to Delta midstream.
Speaker 1: We're peeing.
Speaker 2: It's midstream. I realized we're going back. So then you
Speaker 2: have to go into one of those elevators, no, those
Speaker 2: like elevators that you're pushing your trolley in and you.
Speaker 1: Go in one end and you go out the other end.
Speaker 2: So there are a bunch of I just remembered it
Speaker 2: was men, and they didn't have.
Speaker 1: A lot of stuff like a backpack.
Speaker 2: Here college guys like yeah, okay, like now she thinks
Speaker 2: like some of them are like twenty five, twenty six,
Speaker 2: but yeah, yeah, and they're tall, they were, and they
Speaker 2: all had just like a carry on. No one had like,
Speaker 2: no one had a trolley or a lot of stuff.
Speaker 2: There was one, like I think person who worked at
Speaker 2: the airline.
Speaker 1: Who was in there. But there was more than enough
Speaker 1: room for us to come in.
Speaker 2: But I still felt like we were intruding because you're
Speaker 2: those people that have the trolley with the bags, Like,
Speaker 2: but that's what the airport's about, Like what else if
Speaker 2: we're not getting in the air in the elevator with people.
Speaker 1: With you know, stuff in there.
Speaker 2: So we get in and we happened to, unfortunately for
Speaker 2: those people, be.
Speaker 1: The first stop. So there's a guy.
Speaker 2: Like behind me diagonally and a couple of people in
Speaker 2: front of me, and several of them are to the left,
Speaker 2: so they're not really like in my way. But there
Speaker 2: was one guy pretty much in front of me and
Speaker 2: a guy behind me. So the elevator stops for our floor.
Speaker 2: It opens up. I'm like, yeah, this is my floor,
Speaker 2: and the guys that are like there's one, it's actually
Speaker 2: one or two guys are looking back like staring. I'm like, yeah,
Speaker 2: this is my floor. So the guy behind me is like, hi, everybody,
Speaker 2: what happens is we have to move now right, and
Speaker 2: the road rage is setting in because I have sweating
Speaker 2: armpits coffee all over my arm. I'm wearing a Quantus
Speaker 2: pajama shirt under my down under tourist sweatshirt and my
Speaker 2: jappie like Gucci rhinestone sneakers. I just took him a sweaty,
Speaker 2: disgusting crossbody wreck and so brings.
Speaker 1: With me.
Speaker 2: And the guy behind like, okay, guys, this is when
Speaker 2: like you have to move. So the guy he's sitting
Speaker 2: in the front, I could see him right now with
Speaker 2: like a dope look on his face, like a fluffy hair,
Speaker 2: and he's holding his.
Speaker 3: Rolling like two pound carry on right.
Speaker 1: He looks back at us and he's just standing there.
Speaker 2: The doors are wide open. It's two elevator doors, the
Speaker 2: wide open. We came in one way, which is right
Speaker 2: behind us, and we're trying to get out, and he's
Speaker 2: standing there looking and it's like and he's looking, and
Speaker 2: we're just like I was like, yeah, Hi, this is
Speaker 2: our floor looking, this is our fun What do we
Speaker 2: at H and R Block doing our taxes?
Speaker 1: We're at the airport, like, this is what goes on.
Speaker 1: We're getting off the airports and bags.
Speaker 2: So the guy stands and I said hi, and he's
Speaker 2: like and then the other guy is like trying to
Speaker 2: get him to move out, and he's just like sort
Speaker 2: of tiptoeing a little bit, like only gonna like have
Speaker 2: his body so he's sort of near the I'm like, yeah,
Speaker 2: you know, it's great.
Speaker 1: I go, don't worry, it's gonna be okay. It's okay.
Speaker 1: Just step outside the elevator. You know what's good about that?
Speaker 1: You can come right back on. It's okay, no problem, right?
Speaker 1: Is that what happened?
Speaker 4: I love?
Speaker 1: I don't think you should say it out loud.
Speaker 4: I mean you could say you could just like a
Speaker 4: bad word, because.
Speaker 2: No, you're not gonna say it, but you can reference it.
Speaker 2: You can like, you're not gonna say it because I

Speaker 2: Was right, be honest, you No, you don't have to.
Speaker 3: Say no, you were right because he was being lazy.
Speaker 4: It was also really funny because you really yelling at
Speaker 4: everyone in the elevator and everyone was just towering over you.
Speaker 1: Well, no, the one guy was on my side. He's
Speaker 1: only started.
Speaker 2: He's going to said, yeah, we gotta move, guys, and
Speaker 2: that gave me license.

Speaker 2: No, I was out at the elevator anybody he cursed
Speaker 2: him me.
Speaker 4: I know, I meant like the guy who was like
Speaker 4: hyping you up. He wasn't like you couldn't see him,
Speaker 4: so he like it didn't really do anything.
Speaker 2: It did something for me because it started it when
Speaker 2: he said when he said, hey, guys, we gotta move,
Speaker 2: I felt I got empowered.
Speaker 1: And that's why I who cares? I don't need to
Speaker 1: wake a date with him.
Speaker 2: Everyone thought it was probably you know, he had a
Speaker 2: man's voice because you know why he was a man.
Speaker 1: I didn't sound anything like him anyway.
Speaker 2: So we've been talking about it all day because she's like,
Speaker 2: can we talk about the elevator? Because I had full
Speaker 2: road rage. I'm like, this is aw someone gets canceled.
Speaker 1: Guess what I do it again? The guy was a jacket.
Speaker 1: You know what I do whenever I'm mad.
Speaker 4: If my iPad like falls off my bed like two
Speaker 4: times in a row, yes, well, I'm trying to watch
Speaker 4: a show, I'll get really mad and I'll like lightly
Speaker 4: well not like.
Speaker 3: Oh, I'll go I guess my iPad.
Speaker 1: I'll like hit it a little bit, smack your eye.
Speaker 2: This is my daughter's going at Harvard to make Donald
Speaker 2: take it like mad?
Speaker 1: And you want your iPad to be mad?
Speaker 4: And in my phone like won't charge or to charge, like,
Speaker 4: won't plug in? Then I like like because.
Speaker 1: I want to get frustrated.
Speaker 3: No, I don't get frustrated.
Speaker 4: I wanted to feel the pain like it made me angry,
Speaker 4: So now it has to be angry, like now it
Speaker 4: has to feel what it did wrong, so it won't
Speaker 4: do it yet.
Speaker 1: But that's not normal. Okay, just so you're aware, I
Speaker 1: think that's not normal.
Speaker 2: And people are gonna hear this and someone's gonna come
Speaker 2: over here with a straight jacket.
Speaker 1: And put it on you.
Speaker 2: Okay, I love you guys. We had the best time
Speaker 2: in Australia. It was such a bonding experience.
Speaker 1: In your life. Yeah, you're you're you're the terminal. Oh,
Speaker 1: she's right.
Speaker 2: So when we did go back, when we did come back, oh,
Speaker 2: we were in the lounge.
Speaker 1: She has such a good memory.
Speaker 2: We were up in the lounge, the flagship lounge at
Speaker 2: American is really it's what.
Speaker 1: It's great.
Speaker 2: And we were up in the lounge and thank god
Speaker 2: because no one really there weren't a lot of announcements
Speaker 2: about the flight and your flights, we're gonna start boarding now,
Speaker 2: and I just the guy was really chill when we
Speaker 2: checked in and said what time we had to leave.
Speaker 2: So when we left the lounge at ten, No, we
Speaker 2: didn't leave ten.
Speaker 1: We left it ten oh, because it said boarding at ten,
Speaker 1: So we left a ten.
Speaker 2: But then when we asked somebody, they were like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 2: it's just in the other terminal.
Speaker 1: I looked at Bryn. I said, I don't like that word. No,
Speaker 1: we didn't look at someone. We've realized that ourselves.
Speaker 2: I didn't just out of my mind realized that there
Speaker 2: was another terminal, oh, because.
Speaker 4: It said it said gates fifty to fifty nine that way,
Speaker 4: and I was like, oh, that's our gate, and then
Speaker 4: it said other terminals.
Speaker 2: Oh right, sorry, No, you're right, because we asked somebody
Speaker 2: about the other thing, the terminal, but that wasn't the
Speaker 2: same elevator.
Speaker 1: It was a different story.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Right, But I said to Brent, I don't like the
Speaker 2: word terminal. She goes, Mom, I don't know what to
Speaker 2: tell you. We have to go there, And then we
Speaker 2: were sprinting, sweating.
Speaker 4: I usually said like I would usually say, oh, I agree,
Speaker 4: but I can't really because it's just easy to say
Speaker 4: I agree. But I couldn't really agree because we have
Speaker 4: to go right.
Speaker 1: Like oh yeah, so there was a pause.
Speaker 3: What to do.
Speaker 2: Yes, I'll be the one that starts crying, and she'll
Speaker 2: be the one that pulls it together. And I'm not kidding,
Speaker 2: she's the parent on the I'm the child sometimes.
Speaker 4: So anyways, we were like running, it's anyway, so anyway
Speaker 4: we're wait, anyways.
Speaker 1: It's not. But I'm so glad.
Speaker 2: We've got a couple of good examples of your application
Speaker 2: for MIT.
Speaker 4: So anyway, we were running through to get to the
Speaker 4: terminal to get to our gate, and we ended up
Speaker 4: making it right, yeah, and here we are, and my
Speaker 4: hair was super greasy and there was like so many
Speaker 4: cute boys in the like in our gate.
Speaker 2: So that's a cautionary tail, which is cute to the airport,
Speaker 2: decently cute, not like a swamp thing octopus.
Speaker 4: I know.
Speaker 3: My hair was really like you could buy chicken on it,
Speaker 3: and
Speaker 4: All right, guys, bye bye,
