Went to ER. For various and sundry reasons, including serendipity, I think this one might have worked. I'll have to work during the four day weekend to avoid having to take off non-existent sick time, but I'm dizzingly okay with that.

I often forget and have a lip balm in my pocket, or a bottle of water in my bag.
Wait, so I am going to have to remove my lipstick from my purse and put it in the quart ziplock bag? Oh, how dumb.
Lipstick is fine. A pot of lipgloss should be in the bag. Apparently.
I just want to make sure the security people don't suddenly say "Surprise! You have to throw away that brand new tube of NARS lipstick, so sorry".
dude. i so wouldn't take the lip balm out of my pocket in the first place. that is completely ignorant and arbitrary.
This, and many other reasons, is why I just check everything.
Well, I'm going to have a carry-on no matter what, because there is NO WAY I am putting Clovis in checked luggage. If the airlines lost my wardrobe, I'd be pissed. If they separated me from my Devilbunny, Pete and I would probably snap. So, it's best not to take chances.
They lost my luggage once and I never got it back. Checking luggage now causes me great anxiety.
My bag got thoroughly searched in Tucson the other day, and the TSA guy said it was because the way my keys and book settled next to each other looked suspicious. He really seemed to be suggesting I travel without one or the other, too.
SFO has kindly started providing quart bags, which is nice. Still doesn't quite alleviate the frustration of STUPID rules, but it's nice!
Oh! When I was in the screening line at SFO on Friday( noticing the quart bags), all of a sudden there was COMMOTION at the metal detectors, and some dude TOOK OFF, knocking down signage and everything to block his chasers' way. He ran outside, several guards and cops ran after him, and then two squad cars started chasing him. No idea what happened or why he took off, but there was excitement and pandemonium for a minute. Luckily, we didn't get delayed at all, but it's still not how one wishes to start one's Christmas trip.
