How DID We Survive? — Page 164

There ARE a limited number of seats they have per flight for Award tickets. But again, there's always a way around it, the thing is finding someone willing to help you. It's usually easier in person.

Example of this: my nephew was flying on AA miles. His SEA-SFO leg was taking him to Dallas. My other nephew was flying direct SEA-SFO with AK. Even though they are partners, the lady at AA said she couldn't make the switch. Lo and behold, when we got to the airport, I spoke to the AA agent at the desk, and he did something or other, a lot of typing into the computer was involved, and we got my nephew onto the AK flight instead.

BEAV-the number of miles used is the same regardless of where you're flying... i.e. 25,000 for a domestic flight.

you won't know if you're kissing a hard ass or not.

It's just the luck of the draw. The first example I gave re: my dad was over the phone.

Just don't sound demanding or angry. Kiss ass? You betcha! Like I said, they have the power to do whatever they want, if they feel like it. And sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

I just can't believe there are NO options... usually the convenient flight is booked, but there might be other flights that aren't... maybe connecting through Pittsburgh (yikes!) or leaving later or earlier; maybe you can leave on Sat. instead of Sunday since you HAVE to be back on Sunday.

Boobs...do you know of any hard asses I can kiss?

Flask? I could use a flask. Of schnapps. Butterscotch.

---

Sure, I'll take a flask of Rask with a side of men.

We're getting rain all weekend long. Which is fine 'cause I have rehearsals.

Tan lines? Living in Seattle means tan lines are a distant memory.

---

I thought you'd recognize it! That was an awesome night!

---

As if you didn't have one already!

Look - it's a young Bette Midler as the virgin beggar woman.

So what am I picking up at Best Buy? Bette live?

You can still get the 2-CD "Live at Last" recording of the Cleveland concert.

I'M MOVING BACK TO NYC! I WAS ACCEPTED TODAY!
