waiting for southwest

ok, so there are great benefits to having my southwest visa, like not having to pay more than $10 for a flight in more than two years, including the flights booked for jackson... if only i could pay rent and the car payment on the card, i'd have a ton more free flights, but that's an unfortunate side note... i've been on hold for more than a half hour (at least) waiting to talk to someone about changing my flight... maybe if i didn't press the prompt for change a flight someone would have come on long ago... the thing is, i am not finding a sure way of making the change on line... i can cancle the current flights, but the site says i can't use the points i'd get back right away so i can't guarantee i'd get the other flight i want... and i have to change one ticket at a time, so i can't guarantee my ticket change would happen as i want it to after i change jackson's flight... so i am waiting to talk to someone who can assure me that the flight change can happen without a hitch... so here we sit listening to a monotonous recording over and over... thank goodness for speaker phones and power cords and patience... the change makes sense... it saves time, money, and more... a lot, actually... so i shall wait and hope it happens...

phenomenally, or something like that, it's a half hour later than it was when i finished the last paragraph which was thirty five minutes after i first called southwest... they are obviously bust or they want to discourage flight changes... but i have a power cord to keep my phone charged so i wait... and wait... and i could have typed wait a few thousand times, at least, but the good news is that when i finally got a human voice on the other end, everything worked out great... i switched flights and car rentals and saved money and everything is good...

wasn't that exciting?...

me neither...

If people had visible signs or meters that told something about them, what would you want it to tell you?

dumb poll (above), smart responders

all the previous poll votes were somehow erased, so, nevermind... ironically or coincidentally or whatever, the results were very close in practical numbers to the results above shown with just three votes, if you understand the mathematics behind that extrapolative reasoning... i will probably remove the poll at some point... it is a ridiculously useless feature...

SEARCH ME

the thing is, with my tendency to babble and meander and whine and allow distraction to take the lead more often than not, even in this blog that sort of meant to merge brevity with focus like some bloggers do, searching for key words does not always lead to specific information about the subject of that key word... but... here is a start at an easy way to search for key words in this blog... use the search box at the top of the blog to search for words not listed here... if ya wanna, that is... and feel free to suggest words to add to this search shortcut section... click on the words below :)
