Plane ticket for my cousin’s wedding….
Booked…almost.
I reserved the ticket so I had some time to call my mom and let her know that I ended up getting on the same departing flight as my dad and the same return flight as both of them and now Continental won’t let me actually purchase the ticket. At least I have it on reserve for 24 hours, but I am going to have to call customer service in the morning. I despise dealing with customer service, especially when I have to call. Hopefully, it is painless since the ticket is technically just sitting there waiting for me to buy it.
The good news about having to deal with this…I had enough miles on Continental, which I never fly anymore since I moved to Dallas, from my trip to South Korea last year that I only had to pay the $5 fee for my ticket. And…since I didn’t use my American Airlines miles, I have tons of them to use either later in the year or save until next year and hopefully go on some amazing trip. Maybe Mexico…or back to Napa…or Aspen or Taos for a ski trip in the winter.
A real vacation would be nice, but for the time being, I am going to Las Vegas for work (and staying a few extra days for a mini-vacation) in March, possibly LA for work for a day or two in March and New Jersey in both April and May.
Defensive Driving Course - Pass!
I just passed. Time to put my first speeding ticket behind me.
Taking this course, as cheesy as it was (Gary Busey was one of the characters), actually made me feel very lucky, very grateful and very blessed. I think it is time to reevaluate how fast I drive and how much I drink and then think it is still OK to drive. It’s time to be more responsible.
Good day. Bad day.
The good: I signed my mortgage loan application today! Six weeks until moving day!
The bad: I got pulled over for going 50 in a 35 and got a $225 ticket. If you can believe it, this was my first speeding ticket ever. I tried to cry my way out of it and it didn’t work. I met my mortgage broker and the first thing I did was cry. What a great first impression. Also, the zipper on my skirt broke and I had to hold it together with binder clips.
