We are home and glad to be here.

Thank you for all the messages today. This is a tough time for Plus1 and his brother and sister. She was their last remaining family member (because we're not counting the idiot that is their uncle as family; he and sfogate's sister would get along well).

My sil and niece flew home yesterday via IAH. I had given them both some drink coupons and when I spoke with our niece yesterday, she was drinking a very large beer. After a three hour layover, and having had very little sleep, she left a FB message for said idiot uncle that was quite :eek:. Deserved, but . . . :eek: She may have said all the things sfogate is wanting to say to her sister!

Was upgraded at the three hour mark (changed tix yesterday to today); was surprised as it had been booked full; then one seat opened up but I was #2. I told Plus1 I would decline it so that I could sit with him (one of the rare times I would ever do that ;) ) but he said no. Not only had they not catered my precious Coke Zero, but there was no and I mean *ZERO* alcohol on board. FA said it was a "catering issue" and they'd been having "catering issues". :confused: Let me say, there were some very, very unhappy folks. I heard one FA tell the other that people were asking for comment cards but they didn't have any of them, so they were writing down 800-we don't care for them. I felt bad for the FAs, who were excellent.

On the drive home, a shuttle driver was cutting off drivers and driving about 20 miles over the speedlimit. I called and spoke to someone at their corporate who first told me they'd just had another call on the same driver :eek: and would be dealing with it. They gave me a tracking # and said they'd have someone follow up with me. A+ for customer service.

It certainly can! That's why a daily requirement is so important :)

In a few weeks, we are going to have to host a drinking Do wherein all of you show up to drink the four cases of beer and five unopened bottles of wine we now have. :-:

It's a requirement that Box moments happen when Mackieman is driving us around in a van. Hmmm, I have a hanckering for some hand churned butter.
