I can already see this making me late for work.

She sees right through those. My only chance would be to say that I'm going to visit the friend and coming home the long way. And I'd still get a heaping helping of :rolleyes: from her, though I could probably deal. I also need to find time to do it, which is actually my sticking point right now.

She knew what she was getting into, right?

I had all my emails done before posting and then am answering in between posts. It's working out very well!

Hate to say it, but I'm gonna pass on 40K Olympics. It's still passable outside, and I gotta make a coffee run and clean my car.

Any thoughts on SYD vs. MEL? I am tempted by the extra miles for the MEL flight. I wonder if I can make that flight and then stopover in SYD on the return. Or if I should stop in MEL and give it a try.

Sortof...though I've gotten worse (or better, depending on POV). Now that I only work part time I can actually take the trips I only ever used to talk about.

I can fit everything in on a Friday-Tuesday turn, which is not too bad.

I'm having a day like all the other ladies in the neighborhood today (other than the occasional work) - working out, shopping (buying my new phone) and then going to a tea for a new neighbor. I may even have dinner on the table by the time Plus1 comes home just to worry him a bit.

Mrs. sbm12 always freaks out a bit when I've started cooking dinner by the time she gets home. Very confusing. I like that. :D

So I'm looking at my BD account and I think I can better justify making the trip. I'll be over the 55K number by that point so the cpm earnings get much better. Yeah, I know it is sortof cheating, but why should that stop me. :p

Are you asking the city, the airport? The lounges?
