I only have two trips touching EWR on the books before mid-June currently --

One of then the destination is EWR (well, lower Manhattan) and for that one which is supposed to be a same day in and out I'm seriously considering swinging to LGA and staying overnight.

One is connecting to LHR -- when I booked it I thought the 8 hour connection was insane (but managed to fill at least part of that with lunch with a friend who works at EWR who I haven't caught up with in a while and has a pretty full dance card making meeting up challenging) -- now I'm starting to wonder if it's long enough &/or if lunch is worth it.

Speaking of -- I feel like I should send them a barrel of alcohol for surviving the past few weeks.
