Sometimes you wouldn't even think about this

As previously indicated, John and I have been trying to figure out where to go on a trip. I've been contemplating a few places, like a cruise, that require a passport. We looked at John's the other night and they don't expire until 2012 because we got them to go to Costa Rica in 2002 so I figured that wasn't a worry.

Then, this afternoon I realized that I haven't used mine since 2002, when my name was different. CRAP! I had not even thought about my passport in years. My passport is not current and it takes 10-12 weeks to process unless I pay $60 to expedite. I'm not sure it's worth it. Maybe it's a sign that we should make this trip domestic.

Ugh. I just want someone to tell me where I'm going, charge it to my credit card and send me on my way. I want to stop worrying about what it is going to cost, if it's really what I want to do, and if John will enjoy it. It's shouldn't be so stressful to do something relaxing.
