So Pete, how's about you give us a list of 3 or 4 really good maps that we'll play tomorrow so that we can do our little pre-game practice session on those maps so that the cannon fodder can at least be mobile cannon fodder.

Second the motion on the maps. I could use a warm-up round later this evening, possibly.

Malls on Dec 26th are scary. I haven't been to the Sherman Oaks store.

Has anyone here ever flown Frontier Airlines? Is there anything I should be leery of before making a reservation?

I've flown Frontier, and it was fine. IIRC, they have Southwest-style seating (no assigned seats), so you do want to check in early.

I flew Frontier to the DC F2F. Nice airplane and they kept fetching my terribly sick ass tea.

Good to hear some endorsements (or at least not rousing condemnation) for Frontier. Tickets are booked.

In other news, does anyone know a good way to get cat pee out of a quilt? It's a hand-stitched quilt, so tossing it in a regular washing machine is not really an option.

On Southwest, it's really important to check in online before you go to the airport. (Even if you can't print the boarding pass.) Might be the same with Frontier.

ETA: Anne! So glad you liked your prezzie. I love that thing and thought it would be right up your alley.

I hope so. I'm not a great sewer and have almost no experience sewing clothing. I'm trying for as simple as possible.

Aimee, I strongly recommend getting some cheap muslin and making a practice dress, before making it with the velvet.

I'm finally flying home! I had a great vacation and a wonderful few days with my mom, gram, and uncle & family, but I'm really looking forward to cuddling up with ND in our own bed tonight. Also, we go pick up the kitties in the morning from their "kennel" (google "best little cat house in pasadena" to see how not-kennel-like this place is), and I can't wait to snuggle them. Misses my kitties, I did.

So I'm at the Tucson airport. It's a bit of a ghost town, which is nice. I've bought two books since I finished the four I'd brought with me, and I've eaten a nasty airport burger. One of these two decisions was a poor one. Blargh.

Aims, I may escape the frag fest to come see you for a bit tomorrow if the offer is still good. Have you seen The Devil Wears Prada? I bought the dvd in one of my delayed layovers from Orlando to Tucson, and I think you'd love it. I could bring it over if you'd like.

Yay for flying home. I had really a very good weekend with the fam, but I'm so happy to be home on my own.

The dog's still at my dad's, so it could be better, but still.
