Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So on my flight to San Diego the other day, we were waiting at the gate when I realized our boarding passes didn't have seat assignments on them. I was like, "Oh shit..." so we went up to the podium, where we were put in exit row seats! And then the flight attendant gave us a free drink to "thank us for sitting in premium seats"! Alaska may be my new favorite airline. Too bad I don't go to San Diego, Portland, or Seattle that often.

Alaska is the airline I take to Vegas, though I was disappointed to discover that their planes from Salt Lake don't fit the standard gates at Vegas, and you've got to climb down stairs and up stairs to get into the terminal. Not a pleasure, going from air conditioning to the 108 degrees of tarmac in the full July sun in midday Nevada.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Is it bad that I don't want to do anything productive today?

Incoming!!

Alaska may be my new favorite airline.

When I was a flyer, I took Alaska whenever I could for domestic flights. British Air and Nippon Air at all other times.

Huh, wikipedia tells me that Nippon Air (ANA) has a subsidiary called Vanilla Air. That just sounds like a super whiffy incense sold on my street corner...or an even worse Tom Cruise movie.

Burrell, I'm not convinced that anyone is doing anything productive today.

I'm 100% non productive today. Except for working out and scanning documents I have done a world of nothing.

I have to run 5 miles tomorrow to meet my goal of 200 miles in 3 months. (And 250 miles since July 1). UGH. Too stressful.

The closest I've come to being productive today is 3 loads of dishes and a couple loads of laundry. And tennis in the park. So, um, that's almost as productive as Kat! woot!

Of course what I didn't get done is more glaring: didn't call AAA to jump the minivan, didn't take the one last load of donations to Council Thrift. At this point, not likely to do it tomorrow although there's a slim chance it'll happen. Otherwise we will be the crazy folks getting a jump on our 2016 donations.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I changed from dirty pajamas to clean pajamas and fed the baby a lot. That was it for productivity for me.
