Haha, yes! In November I booked a flight for my wife to return to the USA for a few weeks. Found PZ on the TPACs, and even on a SFO-BOS leg! Even though we ended up cancelling the trip within 24 hours (for us, the benefits of seeing family could not quite overcome our perceived risks of being in the USA at the time), I was surprised at how much I enjoyed arranging the itinerary, securing PZ, using seat guru to get the ideal seats, adding it to our calendar, etc.
Much cheaper than a therapist! Hopefully sometime in 2021 I can do it again, but not have to cancel it!
