While some would alarm all-around abating a theory, others would alarm it a accurate set of facts. Opinions alter vehemently. Let us accede all-around abating to be both a apriorism that the ambiance of the apple as we apperceive it is slowly, but actual absolutely accretion in all-embracing air and baptize temperature, and a affiance that if whatever is causing this trend is not disconnected or challenged activity on apple will dynamically be affected.

I’m sorry to hear that. 48 in the sun, says my weather-beeber. Frank and I were catching up on our naps. I hope he’ll feel a little better tonight. At least he’s done some Digestion.
~whew~
I think I found the problem with my computer, but don’t quote me. Everything I tried showed nothing but “normal” but this evening, it’s running a little faster with no *knock-on-wood* hang-ups.
A long time ago, I had a problem with my old truck.
Every time I down-shifted from third to second gear, the darn thing would shut itself off.
I finally fixed the problem. I got a smaller key-ring.
Good news. Long night (little sleep), long day, but am as packed as I can be at this hour. Heading to bed early because I have to get up early for the journey home.
A long time ago, I had a friend who loaned me his old flatbed Ford (maybe a ‘39) and when I shifted, I never had to use the clutch.
My feet are small and so are my hands.
I have visions of packing for a trip to the SE in a few weeks, and I’m still trying to figure out “wh’hoppen?”
It must be time for me to think about what to take and what to leave behind. Of course, it will all depend on how long all y’all can put up with my cute little self.
My biggest fear is that young Frank will be too old to hug and hold by the time I get there, and Ash will be too independent to want to drag an old auntie for a walk.
Ash loves walks, and Frank loves to be carried around! He’s 8 months old today.
If Anoreth doesn’t get her leave dates confirmed by next week, we’ll just choose dates for your visit independently and get your ticket.
And don’t worry about what to pack - you can do laundry!
Hopefully you can choose by Wednesday, which leaves Thursday for LoM to get tickets. Friday we’re off to Paris and I do not know when we’ll have Internet access for the week after that, but calling ‘Face to arrange the booking will not be feasible.
I’m at the mercy of Those in Power, so when the call comes for me to head for McCarran, I’m good to go.
For what it’s worth, I need early AM outbound flights both ways. Non-stop is best, but one-stop is OK as long as I don’t have to change planes. (Especially in Atlanta!) I just can’t get from one plane to another that is more than a few blocks away. I get too stressed, physically and emotionally.
(I hate to put restrictions on anything.)
Anyway, I’m really looking forward to the trip!
But I can sure appreciate not changing planes in Atlanta!
Good night all. I have to be up Really Early tomorrow, so I am turning in now in hopes of getting a decent night’s sleep.
I can change planes anywhere, but Atlanta is on my “do-not-stop” list. Anywhere else in the country is “ok” but I’ve been through Atlanta, and the experience was NOT pleasant. Not anywhere NEAR pleasant.
So to revise my “druthers:” Early morning both ways, any hub but Atlanta. Non-stop is best for me due to emotional and physical restrictions, but if I know far enough ahead of time, I can adjust.
We’ll do everything we can to get a direct flight, no changes (even if you have to stop). Desire to avoid Atlanta is noted; maybe a Kansas City or St. Louis stop will be a possibility.
I’ll give Anoreth until Tuesday to put dates down, and if she doesn’t have anything, we’ll do ‘Face’s visit as a separate event. My parents are talking about coming up when Anoreth is home, so it might work out better without an extra guest.
Hope everyone has a pleasant night. Frank isn’t feeling great, but better than last night, and we’re stocked up with food in case we get a Winter Weather Event in the next few days.
But Orlando's airport (MCO) rates as one of the crummiest I've seen. Doesn't help that my airport lounge is on another concourse -- to go there and back would mean 3 trips through Security. But... nothing but Starbucks and fast food here; nothing even up to SeaTac's (SEA) sit-down greasy spoon level.
Oh well. We'll be boarding in an hour and I will be Out Of Here.
Ouch. Sun just came up. Blinding.
Anoreth and I spent a day in Orlando airport, waiting for a flight home last year. The chairs were nightmarish, and CNN was on. I’m surprised more people don’t kill themselves in airports.
Is it me, or is FR on and off, mostly off?
It’s 50 now. I think we’ll go to the library instead of waiting for a much colder day.
I hate being stranded anywhere for any length of time. Doesn’t matter if it’s an airport, bus depot, train depot, or DMV. So I always carry a crossword puzzle book.
SOTU fall out? Maybe hung over DUmmies trying to DNS our servers. Dunno...
