In trying to keep the glass half full (per my purposefully-worn T today), I allowed a smile when I realized I had reached a triplicate.
I was listening to 35000 feet at about 35000 feet (Ok, probably 38000 ft) while watching somewhere around 35000 happy little penguin feet dance on the in-flight movie. How fun! (And now I’ve just reminded myself of all the lotto commercials that say “Fun for some… ” and have the guy dancing around with the turkey. Well, this is my kind of fun. Welcome to my world.)

The nagging empty portion of my glass is the effort it’s taken to get here. Although it was beautiful weather out east yesterday, a weather delay kept me so long in Philadelphia that I missed my connection in Houston. I ended up spending waaay too much money on a hotel (weather related delay, so no free room from the airline), but then woke up often throughout the night as I do when I am worried about missing an alarm (I never actually have missed one). All that time in the airport yesterday, then back and forth to the hotel, and once I get to Reno has put a lot of stress on my shoulders. I keep thinking maybe I’d like to get a nice rolling carry on (J and I both should) but only ever see the reason when we’re in the middle of the pain associated with not having said bags.

The Latest from The Maggios:
Work:
J’s job has finally changed to the field position that has been talked about for over a year.
I got a promotion (no big change in duties).
Both of us came out of our annual performance reviews with ‘Above Target’ ratings (Did you expect anything less?)

Play:
Chemtrail has another show in NYC coming up in May, this time at Club Midway.
I’m in Reno this weekend for the USBC Open with the regular group. Hopefully after this week’s performance in NJ, something awesome will come of it.
We’re finally getting on with the planning for our honeymoon/anniversary vacation (it’ll be our anniversary before we get there at this rate).
