Yesterday I had to be at the airport by 0515. We worked for almost ten hours (almost 8 of flying) and when we disembarked in San Francisco it was not even 1300/1:00 pm! It was one of those gorgeous, clear, warm days in San Fran. I took a quick 30 minute power nap then we took the BART downtown with two of my fellow crew members ( Read more... )

So I renewed my paid account today, got a new userhead, (Oh hai! Look at my shiny, luscious hair now! No, it doesn't look anything like that in real life.) and then went icon shopping. Uploaded a whole bunch of new ones, which makes me happy! Now I need chances to use them all! This one I think shall be used quite a lot ... HAHA!

Sent dysfuncentine off to ( Read more... )

Had a delightful young lady on my plane today. She boarded with huffs and sighs and general drama. She complained (in a manner which clearly showed she was patting herself on the back for being so helpful) about a slightly stretched out seat back pocket. She complained in the middle of the flight that she was very cold. I get that-- I hate being ( Read more... )

Oh my gosh, you guys! I am officially a homeowner. I am simultaneously elated, terrified, anxious, and excited. It's a lovely house in a quiet woodsy neighborhood (yay! This country girl likes her away-from-it-all-ness.) that is still in the city (just BARELY!) so Husband gets to remain in his beloved hometown. It's white and stately and spacious ( Read more... )

Today I went on a super fun shopping spree at Target! Yesterday I got two ornaments off the Angel Tree at church. One for a 7-9 year old boy and one for a 13-15 year old girl. Here are the goodies I came up with!

I found a big, ugly, disgusting brown spider in my galley today. I stared at it in frozen horror. Then enlisted one of my top-tier frequent fliers from the first row to smash it for me. /o\ Yes, I'm really that pathetically lame. *shudders* *shameface* /o ( Read more... )

It might be -2 F in Rapid City, South Dakota, but it's completely worth bundling up and braving the wind chill to enjoy the delightfully old-fashioned downtown.

Hello all of you! I have missed you! I've been so out of the loop lately. The internet guy comes on Tuesday so I shall finally have internet at my new apartment! (Thank goodness) And I reeeeaaaalllly hope that my movers come this week on my days off too, because I want my stuff! It's been more than 6 weeks now.

I helped Baby Brother move into ( Read more... )

Our new hotel in Milwaukee is fantastic! What a fabulous afternoon. We now stay right downtown, so there's a lot around. We got in at about 2:00 this afternoon and my FO and I decided to go wander around and see what was nearby. He came downstairs with just a sweater on (he's from Florida). I took one look at him, laughed, and told him to go ( Read more... )

There are very few places in this country that I find more breathtakingly gorgeous than Jackson Hole, Wyoming. The airport is surrounded by mountains, like this place is this tiny, perfect cache of beauty and solitude hidden amidst the oft-mentioned but rarely properly reveled-in purple mountain majesty of the Grand Tetons. I still remember ( Read more... )
