Drew, I'm sorry for your loss, and my condolences to you and yours.
Calli, healing and health vibes for your dad.
Both Perkins and I got to snub evil past employers, which never gets old no matter how many years go by.
Oh goodness, something to go in the WIN column. Yay! And congrats, Trudy, on the new job. Yay!
I cut my froofy coffee out of my morning diet as a means of saving calories. I already quit smoking a few months ago. Can't the Universe be happy with that for a while? Apparently not if I want my current wardrobe to continue to fit. Hmph.

Just dropped $750 on plane fare to Pittsburgh and back. I went with JetBlue, because I like their planes, lots of room and a TV in the seat. God, that plane fare is nearly as much as the entire Vegas trip.
I actually spoke to my oldest sister last night, it was a pleasant, brief chat. Hubby is baffled that I can have a phone conversation with someone I haven't spoken to in 25 years that lasted less than ten minutes. It's just--without teh intervening 25 years of knowledge, there's no real basis for conversation. I need an icon of Miss Manners that I can meditate on to get through awkward conversations and silences.
Peace be with you, Drew, and all of yours.

Our wings are not tired.
Ouch, $750. I do find JetBlue a more pleasant experience though. May the family encounters be easier than anticipated. When do you depart? How are you getting from Pgh to your destination?

I hope the trip is a calm and healing one for you, Connie.

I hope the $750 was for tickets for both of you!

All good wishes for your trip, connie.
Congratulations on the new job, Trudy!
Continued wishes for your dad's health and treatment, Calli.
Drew, my sympathies to you and your family for on your loss. I'm glad he was able to be at home, and you were all able to be with him. I hope that you all can find some closure the next few days. I'm wishing strength to you and Kristin for the time ahead, and peace to all of you.

iPods have a light saber feature?
yeah, it's an app that, when activated, causes your iPhone to make light saber noises when you move it around. I assume that it uses the technology that makes the page reorient when you move the iPhone. You can also pick your light saber color!
I like Jet Blue, but I was very irritated on an upcoming flight when the only available seats were the "additional legroom" seats for $20 extra. So, I am in a middle seat. I need to get there early to see if I can be reseated. It's only 2 hours, though.
