Holiday plans got scuttled, after the official VM girlfriend came down with food poisoning Wednesday night. We had to cancel our Thursday flight to visit her family in Louisiana for the holidays, as she was in no shape to board a plane, and the person I spoke to at Continental burst out laughing when I asked if there were any openings on a flight today.
So we’ll stay in NJ instead, and I’ll expose her to the wonders of Jewish Christmas: Chinese food and a movie.
(On the plus side, this means I won’t break my record (set last year) of 25 flights in a calendar year. I’ve boarded 50 planes in the last two years, and I’m really hoping to cut down the number of flights in 2005.)
