Woohoo, we won funniest scarecrow! We made ours look like the department head, and we weren't sure how she'd take it, so that's a relief (she was one of the judges).
Well, other bands know more than three chords. Your professional bands can play up to six, sometimes seven, completely different chords.

Yay, fridge!
I just made it to Trader Joe's for the first time since ltc was born and bought all the things. They had pumpkin spice cookie butter, which I didn't buy but seemed like a thing buffistas should know about.

Punishingly Intricate
We only fly Southwest domestically (or to the Caribbean now!) due to points having and I love that they don't have class distinctions.
On British Air, in Economy, this summer it felt like they were serving food/drinks the whole time. It was nice because it kept you occupied. I'm excited to check out IcelandAir in December!!!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I think Iceland Air felt more like regular domestic -- I don't remember if they even served a meal! (On a mid-length flight not at meal time...)

In travel news, I just dreamed up a scenario for myself where I get to fly Qatar Airlines (it's the cheapest!), but I don't think I'm actually going to get to go on that trip. Alas!

I don't think we got a meal on the short flight on Iceland Air. IIRC it's like 3 hours or shorter, no meal; longer than that you can buy a meal. I think I was able to buy chocolate on any flight, though? I liked that chocolate. And the USB at the seat for charging one's phone was very nice. Not to mention being able to book tours, etc. while in the air.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I have decided that (like Steph's confession on FB about wanting to kick down a door), I want to once be in a situation in my life where I need walk-on music, so I can enter to the strains of "HERCULES MULLIGAN!" from Hamilton.

Oh god, I want to do that SO MUCH. I watch too many superhero shows.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I just booked my flight to London and I'm flying FinnAir. Never flown them before. But it's operated by American on the flight out and British Airways on the flight back, so it may not be anything special.
I booked through AirFare.com for a flight that was $300 cheaper than I could get through the airline itself, but I'm worried now that something will go wrong because I used a cheaper service.
