You've got my support. Just think of me as...as your... You know, I'm searching for 'supportive things' and I'm coming up all bras.

Well it DID suck, but I just got super helpful AA reservationist Ms. Arlene Franklin, and we are now on a non-stop tomorrow morning, leaving 2 hours earlier than our original flight!
I need to go tweet her praises.

Virtual congrats, Drew!
My company's owners (who live on the property) said they got 12 inches of snow yesterday, so I get another snow day. Unfortunately I have to venture out to the bank (and to get the tub of cat litter in my car), so it's not a stay-in-pajamas-and-nap kind of snow day.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Woo, msbelle! Hooray for Arlene!

Congratulations, Drew!
msbelle, you are the epitome of persistence pays off. Good for you!
I depend so heavily on My Check Free to keep me on the straight and narrow. As soon as I get an e-mail reminder I pop online and either pay the bill or schedule it to be paid. It's great because I can go to one website and pay multiple bills at one time.

I have most of my bills directly withdrawn because I suck at dealing with that sort of thing, and I think I need to pay my car taxes in person at the tax office today, possibly I needed to do this yesterday.
Yay, ND!

We are headed to El Paso. We will be seeing Carlsbad Caverns, the El Paso mission trail, and Las Cruces NM. Possibly White Sands park.
We have family ties to both places, so old houses and graves to see.

Cindy, I'm sorry for the loss to you and the other Bronzers.

I am a model of selflessness, y'all.
I have given up my India trip in order to send one of the people on my team to Singapore instead. (Politics means we can't do both, since people are sensitive about the HQ-based people getting more opportunities.) This is especially true since I've been trying to get sent to Singapore for years and I could have taken the slot with no eyebrows raised.
My boss was appreciative though:
You pulled a great leader move though ;-)
I wasn't testing I swear but I'm impressed ;-)
So there's that.
