Friday's Friday Eve Eve

I can't wait until Friday. Sara, Jill, Mara and I (plus Matt and Destin, two of Jill's friends) booked the Galileo for a 2 1/2 hour mission at the Christa McAuliffe Space Education Center at 4:30 p.m. November 12. I got work off and I've been looking forward to it for two weeks. I AM SUPER EXCITED. Mara's gotten tired of hearing me talk about how great it is, but she's excited too. (I can just tell.) Jill tolerates hearing me talk about it. I think she's actually kind of nervous, but excited too. Sara just thinks it's funny I can't stop talking about it.

I can't stop thinking about it either. I've never been on the Galileo before. When Sara told me the ship moves, I got even more excited. This morning as Jill and I were getting ready for the day (right before we caught the bus) I was talking about the upcoming mission again. Jill smiled and said, "Today is Friday's Friday Eve Eve. Just think of that."

"What?" My mind couldn't grasp what she'd just said.

"Friday's Friday," Jill said slowly. "Thursday. Friday's Friday Eve. Wednesday. Friday's Friday Eve Eve- today!"

So I guess that makes Monday Friday's Friday Eve Eve Eve. Tell that to someone next week when they groan about Monday.

  2. That's awesome even though we probably won't be there at the same time. I don't know what my mission is. Good luck Mel and class! My guess is she'll be on the Magellan or the Voyager. Will this be her first time going?

  3. Okay, scratch the Magellan and add the Odyssey. The Space Center website says "Cry in the Dark" is currently being done on Odyssey and Voyager. Also depending on how big her class is she may get to be on the Phoenix. Let me know how it goes! I want to hear everything! Write me a letter Mel and I will write back about my mission!
