A few months ago, the radio station I listen to had a contest called Lovers in Japan : tickets to see Coldplay in Tokyo on Valentines Day. Needless to say, I didn’t win the contest, but it did get the wheels spinning to do something special this year. Taylor’s February schedule gave him 2.5 days […]
If you’ve been following my blog for any amount of time, you’ve probably noticed that I have a hard time sitting still for long. I’m impulsive and daring, and love to try new things and going places. I was marking up my new calendar at work with everything going on in the next few months…and […]
Earlier this month, I posted about my intended gypsy lifestyle for the remainder of the month. I will be leaving Detroit today, and will not return until December 28/29, depending on flight loads. Above is a picture of (a new version of my) trusty silver suitcase. It has traveled with me for over 40,000 flight […]
Yesterday at work, I let my boss know that my last day would be December 12th (instead of the 19th, which I’d told her in October). I still don’t have a firm job offer, but there’s too much going on this month to be focused at work. I decided that I want to do some […]
1. People just don’t know how to drive in the rain! I saw at least 10 accidents yesterday…slammed into the median, running off the road, into the oncoming lane of traffic across a median. Yeah, it was torrentially rainy with poor visibility, but come on….use some common sense! Don’t drive 90 when conditions don’t permit! […]
1. Woke up at 7:00 pm to help Stacey get her kids ready for school, had breakfast, and chatted with Stacey until 11:00 am. 2. Packed up the car, and got back on the 75. 3. Stopped for some lunch at Chick-fil-a in Lexington, KY, at one of the most advanced drive-thru set-ups I’ve ever […]

View from First Class of a new Embraer 175 Hello loyal blog readers… Can you believe it? No post in 4 days? It’s unheard of! Saying I was “busy” in Utah is an understatement, but here is the review of my trip. You be the judge. Wednesday: Visit with dad at Aspen Ridge Drive up […]
After 3 flight bumps in Detroit, Rosie and I made it in time for the 2:50 PM connecting flight in Minneapolis to SLC. Unfortunately, our plane had 6 hours of maintenance issues in La Crosse, WI, and didn’t arrive till 7:00 PM. We arrived in SLC at 9:00, Emily picked us up, we swung by […]
