Word For The Wise

Check your documents way before you check-in. I pulled out my passport for the first time in a few years thinking that it would be fine, but I quickly realized that it expires on Saturday! So today, the majority of my time was spent running around trying to find other eligible documents from the list that I could bring with me in place of my passport. We tried to renew my passport but my mom and I didn't realize that they needed to send in my original birth certificate, which was an alternative document I could have used for authorization. We have a copy of that, my license, and my SSC, but I'm hoping there will be no problem.

This is what happens when I procrastinate. Time to really start packing!
