:mad: I was starting a big multi quote after catching up with a busy box buty I hit something on the keyboard that closed my browser. :mad::td: any who in short:

CM: my model of Olton Hall came with more track.
mnmag getting a real paper card in the mail is much more fun than a e-card.
who ever posted the dishwashers I was standing next to two expensivie machines tonight that were running and they only way I knew they were running was the flashing red light. There was a matching 88 inch wide refrigerator/freezer to go with it. I'll post photos some day.

I am pleased right now -- Lisa and I are going to HNL for her b-day in February. With lower AA airfares and the 10% soccer discount, we got $354 RT AI from LAX. So... that said, we will be in HNL from 2/5 -2/8. It will likely be my first of 4 trips over there next year. ^ Lovely Lisa will be with me for 3 of 4.

Who's in for Waikiki? :D:cool::-: FFN's at Hyatt make this a great trip! ^

I'm very ready for time off during the next few weeks. I need a break.

Hear hear. Tomorrow is my last day of work before 1/4.

I didn't quite do as much as you - just UA 1K, HH Diamond, Hyatt Plat, Marriott Gold, National ExElite.

It looks like my next projects will be right here in Chicago-land. I don't anticipate any business trips until May. Looks like I'll be swapping SWUs for miles in CC.

I'll probably just miss you. Going to be on Maui for a week, Kauai for a week, and then end up burning a few FFNs on Waikiki the 8th-10th.

Nice fare but that's the weekend before I head to YVR for the Olympics. And that trip also involves Hyatt ...

Congrats.

Coincidentally, I will be in HNL myself that weekend on one of the crazy UA $280 tickets. :D

I might not report back to the office until 1/7. Thinking of visiting Houston (well, IAH) the night of the 5th.

I only have my SkyTeam USA Plat (earned), Hyatt Diamond (earned), BD Gold (going to earn), and Hertz 5* (earned).

I'm staying across the border in SEA and taking a train up to soak in the experience.

Sounds good to me!

I like this facebook post from a friend a few minutes ago.

...just returned from an amazing, sagacious Princeton Toastmasters holiday meeting. We learned that the future "is in the box,"
Just image, we are the future.

Good night box.

In random news, a few months ago Marriott mailed me an offer that if I stayed a total of 40 nights they'd extend Plat for another year. I only have 31 nights, called them to confirm the offer as I was thinking of doing a mattress run since I found a $52/night fairfield in NJ.

The guy asked if I was going to be able to make it and I told him it'd be tough, but i was going to try. He puts me on hold, comes back and tells me that since i've been a Plat for so long, they are extending it for me through 2/2011.

A mattress run without the mattress run. :D

Very nice - right now I'm wishing Hyatt would adopt rollover for stays to help me next year.
