It is mainline caffeine time. The Key Investment Services group hosted a party last night, then I went with some co-workers out to the casino.

I am getting to old for these :rolleyes:.

While certainly true, I believe our esteemed Otter might argue concerning the quality of a particular more, and its lasting effects.

Yes -- for me it cleared weeks ago. I was walking around Legoland with my kids and I got a call from a Continental rep asking about paying miles for upgrades. I had no idea what she was talking about and had to ask her which trip it was for. You'd think that an agent would know to explain things like which trip/ticket she's calling about.

It belongs to someone else so I did not snag it. Also, it's MD 20/20. Seriously.

I wish UA would go ahead and process my 3P status. I want to see what fun toys it offers.

I have a very, very bad experience with MD 20/02 in grad school... which resulted in me hurling on my thesis advisor. :rolleyes:

It's a miracle I got that degree... :p

Ok, where is this Hyatt promo?

Got booted from FT a bit ago. Promotion should be on the main page of goldpassport.hyatt.com. And remember that a NYE stay would count toward 2009 instead of 2010 (hence my run begins tomorrow).

Yep, I found it. I got too excited too fast. I saw Steph3n posting it was only ten nights, but it is actually 25 for me. I don't know that I can amass that and keep my Marriott status up to at least Gold. Combine that with the serious outflow of cash due to buying the house, and I think I'll be sticking with Marriott for the foreseeable future.
