Must ... get off ... FT, ... Must ... save ... Lois ...

I tell myself that just for one second, I'll log on and check the latest. I reason that I don't want to miss any new promos or mileage run info or whatever!

So, on I go and, three hours later, I re-reason with myself that I must go back to certain forums, just for a second, because something new may have come up ... .

This weekend's downtime made me feel free as a bird and, yet, here I am again, forgetting that wonderful feeling. So just how long does it take to catch up on the latest FF news and updates? Let me know, I'll set my timer and we'll see if it helps ...

Lisa,

If you find a cure - please let me know.

Here I am trying to figure out a RTW trip. First it was DFW-LHR. That worked for two trips, now I want more.


------------------
TANSTAAFL - but if you work it right, FF miles comes pretty close.

lisa,
Great topic! You made me laugh out loud, as did tigertiger's response.
I share your addiction and, apparently your sense of humor!
I'll say it loud and proud: I'm an FT addict! And as another famous Superman fan would say "not that there's anything wrong with that".

How about a new support goup forum to discuss our addictions.

"Hello my name is ------ and I'm a FlyerTalkaholic."

Maybe I could get a few clients who need help with their addiction. They'd find themselves with the best enabler rather then counselor. Maybe a sign of my addiction is no longer talk about it too much. Most folks don't believe I am now location independent that's to a good FFP.

Lisa,

I have a cure for you! Drive over to Long Beach and I'll buy you a beer and I'll sit and listen while you tell me about your addiction to miles.
