I feel like a busy bee

So it's been a while. That does tend to happen when you work 10 straight days, fly to St. Louis and see everyone in 4 days, fly back, and go straight back to work the next morning.
My trip home was jam-packed. I did have a really good time going out with friends. Halleh, Sarah, Cariss, Matty H, Kim Kavanaugh, and Jenn and Joe (and Joe's brother - right Halleh?) came out. Michaella, Steph, Kris, Kim, and Nick came down from Kirksville. I felt very loved for everyone coming. Steph gave me 30 hugs when I left - Steph you are always the best self-esteem booster! I always feel better about myself after seeing you. And my twin is the best ever for getting people to drive to see me. Anyways, we went out to the Bottleneck Blues Bar at Ameristar Casino and drank, talked, and dance. There was a band called "That 80's Band" I think. It was a ton of fun to dance and sing to 80's music.
My flights to the STL were awesome: early, everything ran smoothly, no problems at all. My flights back: turbulent, super late, and more crowded. Boo for that. I got back to Denver at like right before midnight. The flight hostess (or whatever they're called) on my last flight was hilarious. She had the whole plane laughing with things like: "Is anybody on the flight warm? Raise your hand if you are. Raise it a little higher. Great now turn that little air vent right over your head." "Moms when the oxygen bags fall down secure your own first, your favorite child next, your least favorite child next, and your husband last." After the lights went out and the flight started she grabbed the remote and in a really low voice she said, "zzzzz you're getting really sleepy zzzzz you're not hungry zzzzz you're not thirsty zzzzz you don't need anything zzzzz when you get home you will call 1-800-iflyswa and book a trip to Maui (where she was from)." Anyways I kept thinking of Sex and the City and the Russian telling Carrie, "You are comic." I love when she repeats that to her friends. It's like one of my favorite lines ever. Anyways I kept wanting to tell the lady that. She also gave out big bags (full of 25 little bags of peanuts) to the guys that had never flown Southwest before. She was trying to make up for the fact that we left over an hour late and since our flight was late anyways all the people that were going to take trams and buses places missed the last departure of all of these.
I read "The Five People you Meet in Heaven" on my flight. It was awesome. I really liked it and would say it is now one of my favorites. You people know how much I like to analyze the relationships between people and how interconnected we all are. Anyways you should read it.
Umm I know that there was a lot more stuff that I had thought about writing about, but now I'm drawing a HUGE blank. I think cause I'm tired, we're watching American Idol, Lucy's running around, Audra and Linds are talking, and I'm talking to Christina. It makes it a little hard to concentrate! : )
I'll try to get on a new newsletter schedule so that we can get back going. I think I've heard about all your scandals anyways (well except Kate's - but perhaps like me she's a little more in control of herself) but it's always good to have it in writing to be able to read back on.
