She says it's a Jewish thing, but I dunno-- my mom used to try to have family meetings in the bathroom until I finally locked the door when I was about ten or so.
My mother STILL tries to do it, and gets slightly offended when I don't play along. ARGH.
My mom likes company when she's in the tub but thankfully we keep our toilet time to ourselves in my family. I don't even like it when people try to talk to me through the door.

And because I trust Buffista wisdom, I went and checked and you're right.

Of course, the downside is that the luggage Nazis at Jacksonville International Airport could still make me check whatever carry on I take when I get to the plane. I know it's a full flight to Charlotte.
oh, I hate gate checking.
There are men at work who will go the the bathroom and keep talking on their cell phones the whole time.
It's really wrong.

Yeah, but gate check doesn't count. So just make sure there's nothing SUPER vital (laptop, prescriptions, things you're going to read on the flight) in the rolly bag.
So you can baggage check one. Go through security with ginormo-"purse" and another rolly. And then they may or may not make you gate check the other rolly because it's a commuter flight. But that doesn't count as a checked bag.
You know, I think that next year, I'm going to drive to D.C., especially since I plan on making it part of Nate's birthday trip and I'm definitely driving to Nashville the year after.
It's just easier, especially since I like driving.
My mother always leaves the door open to the bathroom (except when there is company) and tries to talk to me or stepdad from their or on the phone. I can't seem to break her of the habit.

Women do it, too. (*I* don't; but I certainly am aware of it when use the bathroom at work.)
Next year is D.C., Barb? I could get to that one! I had a great time in D.C. last time, although it was about a zillion degrees.
