Happy 2010

I'm back in the dc metro area after a very restful vacation.

The only thing that kinda sucked, is that after relaxing for like a week we ended the vacation stressed again b/c of all the idiots at the airport. First off we flew air trash, so we knew we'd have to pay for our luggage, but didn't quite realize how much...so it turned out to upgrade our seats to business class and check our bags for free. We also got to cut the security line, although a family was in front of us and took FOREVER to go through. Then once we finally got on our delayed flight we got free drinks.

The flight attendant for business class was a giant jerk. For example during his safety speech he stops mid speech and goes "excuse me, why arent any of you listening? why doesn't anyone ever listen to this? what are you all gonna do when something happens?" Then someone spoke up and said "cuse we've all heard this before" and the flight attendant goes "well i'm not gonna save you then, i'm leaving you behind". I did a little math in my head, and i've heard the lecture a minimum of 300 times (which is probably way under what i've actually heard it). Then the flight attendant storms off and starts comparing this situation to the landing on the hudson to the other flight attendant. The flight attendant then returns and goes "we usually give out drinks to business class before flying but we arent today to save time, do you forgive me"....the girl behind me who he had directed his dismay at people not listening goes "i dont, you yelled at me infront of everyone, I certainly dont forgive you"...then they start debating it out about how the girl is going to survive without listening to his speech. That guy was on a serious power trip.

Anyway, i'm back and its cold.
