I turned 42, so I'm tempted by the 24th. That makes it on a Sunday, which is nice for not-working purposes.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ugh Dana, ugh, sj.
My neighbor kid who has watched my cat before is going to be out of town the same time I am, so I have to find another option. I bet my other (adult) neighbors would look in on him for free, but I feel bad asking them to do the litter box. So I guess I need to find an actual cat sitter, which just feels like a pain! And probably more expensive than the neighbor kid? Hmph.

Punishingly Intricate
Oh man I almost got in a screaming match with two separate old white people in line to board my flight who were complaining about pre-boarders.
The man said "I'm sorry to say it but it's like the Starbucks in Philadelphia"
And I repeated, incredulous, and he looked at me like I was agreeing and I was like WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT??!!
I was inarticulate with rage so all I could come up wth was "you're what's wrong wth America."
Then another lady next to me complained about the same thing and when I shut her down said I was nasty. Uggggggghhhh
Now I have to somehow concentrate and get a shut ton of work done on this flight.

Whaaaaat? Man, people find ways to be hateful that I just can't even comprehend. I'm sorry, lisah.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.
who were complaining about pre-boarders.
As in the people traveling with small children, or the people with medical issues who need extra time or help? Grrrr.
I've done that sort of pre-boarding when I have bad migraines. It's been a lifesaver.

There have been suggestions that people who call 911 because someone with a permanent tan is making them uncomfortable should face some sort of consequences. Sounds reasonable to me - not only are they causing problems for the person, possibly putting them in actual danger, but they're taking up police time when there could be an actual emergency.

Wtf. What does preboarding have to do with the Starbucks incident? Ugh. I am totally against people who try to board before their group but that's for gate agents to police, not random folks.
