Raq, how terrifying! I mean, I’m glad you know how to drive manual now, but no one should have to learn under those circumstances!
Oh, Kristin! How frustrating. I hope you have a new card soon!
Answers to Raq’s questions:
1) It depends (terrible answer, I know)
2) Hell no. Easy on and easy off. Usually my Danksos unless I’m traveling to the tropics…then it’s flipflops. And I know you didn’t ask about this, but I also have a pair of nice knit khaki pants that I pretty much only wear when I fly. They are so comfy and have pockets and actually look pretty nice. I’m all about the comfort when I fly.
3) Um, no. You’re supposed to do that?
4) Yes. Gingerale.
Kristin! Take care of yourself, girl.
Work was interesting tonight. But instead of bitching, I will share the very special picture one of my kids made for me: [link]
1) Like so many of us, I try to remember and feel terrible when I forget.
2) Doc Martens.
3) I rarely bring my office mates anything
4) I almost always have bloody marys on the plane but I will sometimes order them other places, like a sports bar on Sunday.
Older than me, but still young.
See, this is something I've come across enough (leaving money out, finding it there when I return in the evening) that I've just defaulted to leaving it at the end.
And, seriously, if I leave money out and it's gone when I come back, I'm probably not going to be happy. And I'm guessing most hotel staff are super careful about that kind of thing anyway. Not a situation where you want to assume, you know?
although my dog's photo (kona19) still has not been posted I am enjoying the Million Dog Mosaic anyway. I'm typing in random dog names and numbers and finding all kinds of cute pics. I'm surprised how many people spell Abbey with an e. (I used to have an Abbey)
There's nothing quite like relaxing in a warm bath and seeing a small dog trotting purposefully down the hall waving a pink t-shirt.
Hee. It's a good thing dogs aren't subtle. That purposeful trot is always a tipoff that they're up to no good.
and sometimes you find things like this

Most decent hotels I've stayed in have had a small envelope in with all the other brochures/room service menu/etc. that tend to be on the bureau/desk/table in the room. If you leave a tip in the envelope each day, they'll put a new envelope in the room when they clean it.
