Surgery took 2 hours. The Doctor discover that the floating bone was actually broken in two pieces, lengthwise. Couldn't see on the x-ray because it was on the back side. One plate and 5-6 screws later, he's all fixed up. ^ We bought a ice pack machine. He has to keep his collarbone area chilled for 2 hours, every 2 hours for a few days. Of course his sister took pictures of him while he was in recovery. Good for blackmail purposes. :D

One of the first things my son wanted to know, after waking up from surgery, was if he was going to beep going thru the airline security line. Spoken like a true child of an airline employee.

So what's the answer....will he set off the metal detectors?? Are the plates/screws surgical grade steel or titanium?

Morning Box.
My boss called last night to let me know that the upper management put my name on a layoff list. :rolleyes: He'll be fighting for me but it's time to dust off the ol' resume and find out what Austin has to offer. Sigh, I hate looking for a job. :rolleyes::rolleyes:

+1, this economy sucks...
The wife was offered a job yesterday working at one of the most prominent private preschools in NYC. The tuition is around 55k per year. The classrooms have 15-18 kids, a head teacher (masters degree and certification required) and an assistant teacher (bachelors and certification required). She would also be teaching 2 classes, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. Guess what the salary and benefits are for the assistant position........ 29k/year :rolleyes: NO BENEFITS, not even health insurance.:td: Who the hell is making all the money???? Shes going to accept and keep looking for a public school teaching job...

I think I'll throw in the towel and try again in the morning assuming the fare is still published. :( |
I told all of my friends about the IAH-HNL fare, if they chose to get in on it, good for them if not then it sucks for them.

I'm confirmed.
Feb 2, 2010 to feb 7, 2010 ;) Assuming I actually decide to keep this when I wake up in the morning it'll be a mini-DO, or at least dinner. And I'm still going to try to find a weekend to go when I can use my CR1s that expire November 9th. |

I wish CO would match. I don't feel like connecting out of IAH.

And I'm still going to try to find a weekend to go when I can use my CR1s that expire November 9th. I am waiting for final confirmation tomorrow from the s/o, but I think it looks good. Here are our flights for now. There would be some serious :rolleeyes: from the s/o if I added another segment to this. Tue, MAR 2 UA635 EWR-ORD 6:00 AM - 7:15 AM (A319) Layover in Chicago 3 hours, 0 minutes UA001 ORD-HNL 10:15 AM - 3:02 PM (777) ------------------------------------------ Sun, MAR 7 UA74 HNL-SFO 1:35 PM - 8:21 PM (777) Layover in San Francisco 1 hours, 54 minutes UA56 SFO-EWR 10:15 PM - 6:36 AM+1(A320) I am thinking connecting at ORD in March may be a mistake, so I might change it to SFO tomorrow morning, but the SFO flight gets in 2 hours later than the ORD flight. I guess I would rather get there 2 hours late then not get there at all.

I told my friends about the $300 BNA-ZRH RT available a couple weeks ago AND the new route bonuses (I will earn 45,000 RDMs for the trip); not one of them acted ...

Things are looking very good for a few bumps tomorrow. The major downside is giving up my F seat and a DirecTV equipped aircraft.

My partner has a bunch of FL credits that expire tomorrow, so he's put me in charge of booking us a weekend trip to use them up while he's still got enough for a free ticket. FL's website is being a pain to find something to use that ticket on, and it really sucks that I can't use the free ticket for an itinerary that includes a codeshare with F9.

We will both be *Gold for this little HNL trip. I wonder if we can have E+. |
