Y'know, I've quickly discovered that it's not the
lack of sleep, it's the frequently being woken from a deep sleep that's getting to me. I've done grad school; I've dealt with little sleep. What I am
not used to is waking up on demand!

Funny you should bring up the fish. Through a quirk of logistics, the fancy fish are getting a nice upgrade out of this! (Their tanks sit in what will be the nursery.)

Speaking of upgrades, it looks like FT might be the full extent of my traveling perks.

I'm already going to take a hit on my status next year, though I will still enjoy
some status on UA :whew:. But it's going to be a minor miracle if I can achieve status for 2012.

Was I qualified if I've always been OK with children in first?
I am looking forward to perusing the Traveling with Children forum!
