I don't even know where to start. The beginning of March started this much hyped and awaited for bidding system for the way our flight attendant schedules are passed out to us. Not knowing how to manipulate the schedule, I felt a bit trapped and unsure of myself. Never-the-less good things happened.
March started off with this hellish four day trip, which was great because I flew with a very cool girl. (New friend, yay!) Then, I called off sick and spent the next ten days of the month frolicking in Charlotte, Florida and Savannah with the current love-of-my-life in what was an epic Spring Break/ St. Patrick's Day celebration. Somewhere in the midst of that, I learned that the last asshole I was dating got some other girl pregnant and now- even to THIS DAY, I am embroiled in baby-mama-drama that delights my Old Testament sense of justice. muah ha ha ha ha ha!!!
Then I flew to Alabama to visit my long time bestie and get bridesmaid wasted on gin and beer. Dear Lord! What effect does Alabama seem to have on me?
When I finally went back to work on March 23, I got to fly with these two nutty ladies and got a 24 hr layover in an all-inclusive resort in Jamaica. Read: Rum, Kayak, rum, jerk chicken, rum, rum, rum. This sort of good fortune with layovers never happens, so I was taking full advantage of the fun.
The next trip I had, I got to visit Lindsay in MSP and Asli and Tolga in NYC and my friend Mallory on another trip. All friends trip!! So much fun. Along with that, I also got to randomly see my friends Mandy and Jackie when they popped up in Florida by surprise. March might have been the best month of my entire life for both 1) love 2) friends 3) loving my job 4)making money and 5) getting rid of an asshole and seeing him get what was coming to him. Just fantastic. I literally did a dance of praise for the Almighty. I think I'll do another just thinking about it.
April-- Also GREAT!
I got off of reserve and I used my powers as a "Line-holder" to manipulate my schedule to my liking. I managed to make it to my friend's bridal shower AND KOREA! I also got TWO long layovers to visit my true-love when he wasn't coming down to Charlotte (twice!). Man, its just too good these days. I had a little trauma getting back from Korea and, would have strongly preferred to stay longer, but who doesn't have to sleep on an airport floor from time-to-time. By sleep, I mean try and block out the radiating fluorescent lights and creepy new-aged piped in music by listening to Josh's podcasts for three hours. Shout-out to one of my original blog-bestie, Dr. J!
Please check out Travel Medicine, a podcast. I was recently a guest speaker on the show....eeee!!
OK, its May now, but I really feel like I should go back insert some photos, am I right!? I think I'm just going to do a separate post about Korea next
BEST NEWS EVER: My little brother got engaged! I'm so happy about this!
