Trip to the Airport

I crawled quietly into bed last night at about ten after two.  Susie was awake.  She had been up packing for her trip to Florida, where she’s speaking at a conference, and talking late on the phone with a friend.

“What time is the alarm set for?” I asked.

“5:30,” she said in a matter-of-fact voice.
