She said to wait 2 hrs for confirmation to come through!:rolleyes: I thought this was a very straight-forward on-line purchase -- clearly I 'overestimated'!;):rolleyes:

The 2 hour window is for the credit card company to do it's thing, verify that you are you.

I'm now motivated enough to make breakfast, at 1211.

just finishing lunch, here -- yummy chili!:p For dessert -- apple pie w/vanilla & mango ice cream on top!

On a totally unrelated topic -- looks like there is a 're-start' of e-mail 'stalking' by beau's ex-GF, again!:rolleyes::eek: Am totally ignoring it!:rolleyes:

Gabe's a cutie and it's a very nice article.

You could return the favor by ordering her all those information/promo sheets that you find in the back of magazines. My father received a ton of throw-away mail from his friend as a prank. It took him years to stop the junk mail from coming. :cool:

Yeah, could just bombard her w/every type of 'fin'l planning' stuff out there -- she wanted to know *why* I wouldn't take her on as a fin'l planning client!:eek::confused: This is after she had previously 'advised' me to 'not contact her' -- well, I'm just following 'her' advice!:D She's hardly worth the effort for me to do anything -- I got enough on my plate, right now!!!:rolleyes:

I wouldn't send financial offers - the source might seem a little too obvious.

aloha box. Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving.

Ours was pretty good, except The Canuck almost hit a moose. :rolleyes:

So, our honeymoon flights still haven't been ticketed. They've been confirmed since Wed. but not ticketed. Any ideas?

Greetings from the IAD Senator Lounge. They have fresh pretzels, i'm good. :D

The new BMI Number one lounge is amazing. Parts of it remind me of a nightclub. I took plenty of pics for sbm12 and decided to skip the *A lounge altogether. Though, getting to the BMI lounge is harder than getting to the bat cave.

Perhaps tomorrow will be the day I get my new BD Gold card. Glad you're having nice airport experiences.

I would call and ask. It's possible they were ticketed but the website doesn't reflect it. I've seen that a few times on tickets that have been reticketed.

I'm going to be motivated and cut my hair.

"Almost" in this case is a good thing.

I've called a few times and have heard everything from "this isn't a legal itinerary, I'm just going to cancel it..." :eek::mad:

To "due to the :rolleyes: nature of the routing this needs to be manually ticketed, and that will get done tomorrow because of the holiday." (It never gets done tomorrow)
