Airport Phobia

Wow it has been such a long time since I had anything to do with airplanes and airports, since 911 air travel has become such a hassle that I have completely shied away from flying, as so many other people have done since then. So when my BFF just announced that she will be flying in from Alabama for her niece’s high school graduation and that she needed me to pick her up from the airport, I almost fell over.

Don’t get me wrong I would do anything for my long time BFF (best friends since the 4th grade and still going strong after all these years) but just the thought of all the issues that go along with airports just gets my tummy all in knots. I mean let’s face it the jfk parking issue is enough to get me all in a tizzy much less finding the right terminal. What really freaks me out is if the flight is delayed then what would I do in the mean time? If it was just for a short time, like an hour or two, I could handle that. I would of course bring a book, but I can only sit and read for so long.

What ever it takes I’ll do it, don’t mean to sound like I’m boo hooing about it all. After sitting here thinking and writing about it it does sound pretty petty, never knew I had such an airport phobia……

Thanks To My BFF

The one place that I always wanted to go to when I was a kid, much like every other kid, was Disneyland in southern California. It never happened when I was a kid, but now I have the opportunity to go there and by golly you can bet your bottom dollar that I am going to jump on it and go this year with my BFF Judy.

Judy managed to line up a sweet deal for disneyland tickets at dnticket.com that she is going to pay for with her tax refund check and she has invited me, her BFF since 4th grade, to go along with her. She had a lot of deductions this year and is getting the biggest refund ever and wants me to help her spend it! I mean what are friends for, right? We haven’t done anything major like this together in so very long, it will be awesome spending a whole week together in such a fun and magical place such as Disneyland.

I will have to buy some new clothes with some of the money that I get back from Uncle Sam to take with us, but I guess that is the least I can do considering the expenses that she is going to be responsible for for all of this.

Sheetz Customer

I just got my Sheetz customer appreciation card which entitle me to save 3 cents a gallon as long as I make sure the sales clerks scans my card. I will also expect to receive an email once a month to let me know what item from their convenience store for free, like a free yogurt, a free bottled water, or a free package of candy. I love Sheetz, they all most always have the best price for gas as it is so saving another 3 cents will be welcomed.
