I am totally spoiling myself today; somehow I got in the middle of the b group for the 5 ish hour flight. So I upgraded and now am a1. Yeah, it was worth it.

Also? Pumpkin bread NOM.

Oh joy: two of the people at Thanksgiving are now down with fevers and congestion. Pete is going to brave the grocery store to pick up supplies for the weekend, so if one of us comes down with it, there's easily-made food in the house.

That guy, on the airplane? Was an asshole.

True. Yes, the woman was obnoxious and mock worthy, but the vulgar notes were OTT for sure. I may have had to slap him myself.

Yikes! My aunt is Black Friday shopping today, with bronchitis. Little gift for her fellow shoppers. And she's an RN! She should know better than to spread her germs.

eta: upgrading on flights is totally worth it!

Reclining behind exit seat since I checked bags anyway and am in no rush to get off. I'm such a budget traveller, slowly adding indulgences.

Ended up with insomnia last night (probably the cup of decaf with dinner) so slept until noon today, whereupon I had pecan pie for breakfast/lunch, wandered out to get a few more ingredients for turkey tetrazzini, and now am feeling futless and unsure of what to do. I mean, three days of football, yes. Bonus hockey today, yes. But as far as what to actually do? No idea. I should probably do some weeding post-rain. And I do have plenty of actual work I could be doing if I decided to do work. Or I could do household tidying which seems to be what the SO wants to do. He's out gathering firewood right now, which feels happy and appropriate.

But I dunno. All I'm actually doing is lying around and listening to hockey. Which is a reasonable choice, I suppose.

I am totally Typhoid Mary at work today. I started sneezing and having a crazy runny nose at 8am (after I got here.) In my defense I have been basically bathing in hand sanitizer.

I think the difference between the guy on the plane and the woman is that he knows he's an asshole.

I am one with flea. I was LOLing at the Tweets until he proceeded to up the ante for cheap internet validation. Yeah, she was a whiny self-centered jerk, but if someone was sending me notes saying "Eat a dick" twice on a plane, I'd bitch my fucking head off, especially if airline attendents were facilitating the notes.

If you're going to harass a stranger on a plane, even a very unpleasant one, with sexually threatening words, have the fucking nads to stand up and do it to her face. So the whole plane can see what assholes you BOTH are. WTF is this, 5th grade?

Live-tweet, by all means. But I've seen posts congratulating this smug jackass all day, and those notes went over the line.

well my day did not go as planned and no idea why I am surprised, but am and am pouty.

My friend who was going to come over and help me decorate had to work all day. I went by to help her and stayed for 2 hours, but she was still not done. I went by my parents' house to let their dog out midday and I got their tree down from the attic, because at 70 the do not need to be dealing with that.

So now at home, have a full plate of left overs and no decorating has been done.

I think I should just focus on getting the tree up and worry with outside stuff tomorrow since the sun is halfway set already.

Bah, I just wanted it all done today.

I have a date in about an hour. I repeat, a date. I'm kinda flipping out and am trying not to nervous myself into an anxiety attack. We have been talking online for a few weeks and we get along great. But I get no spark from his pictures, so who knows. I haven't dated in YEARS. Eeeeeep.
