I'm leaving on a jet plane... to see my mother in South Carolina, or rather an island off the coast of South Carolina on Saturday morning. It's raining here now, but tomorrow, it will be sunny in NYC, until I reach South Carolina - where it is supposed to rain for well four of the six days that I'll be down there. (I'm flying out of Laguardia not Newark - I avoid Newark like the plague.) I'm flying back Thursday afternoon.
The song "Leaving on a Jet Plane" was written by John Denver, but made famous by Peter, Paul and Mary. (I didn't know it was written by John Denver, I actually thought it was written by Peter, Paul and Mary.)
Other songs that are surprising in that way?
Me and Bobby McGee was written by Kris Kristofferson NOT Janis Joplin.
Blowing in the Wind by Bob Dylan NOT Peter, Paul and Mary.
I will always love you by Dolly Parton NOT Whitney Houston (don't feel sorry for Dolly - she made more money than Whitney ever did off of that song.)
Fancy by Bobbie Gentry NOT Reba McIntire.
At any rate, I most likely won't be posting anything until I get back from South Carolina, sometime next Thursday (which will be late in the evening) or Friday. Off to bed now, since I'm getting up around 4:15 to leave for the airport around 5:15. I need to get there early enough - since airport security is bound to be a headache with the new requirements.
Have a great weekend and week.
