I am very much looking forward to my treatment in business class.
Remember that little post about my crazy-blind purchase of business class tickets? Delta has already done something I find suspicious/that is completely different from when I am a lowly coach passenger. I just got an email so smarmy I feel the need to wet-wipe my hands:
We’re reconfirming - so you don’t have to!
Want to change your seat, or find out what movies will be shown on board? It’s just a click away. And don’t worry, we’ll send you a friendly reminder when it’s time to check-in.
Yeah, I’m a copywriter; I know some ad agency person wrote that. But still! The email goes on to encourage me to join the Crown Room Club. Ha, that’s not going to happen. Unless I stay up very, very late while blogging and tap into that 24-year-old aged rum our friend Kevin brought us as a thank-you when he recently stayed with us for a few days. (Now that Kevin knows how to treat a host right!)
A note to everyone that, yes, once again we’re vacating — we are flying to Michigan (IN THE LAP OF LUXURY!) on Saturday and not back until July 5. (But we have a large dog and capable housesitters, so don’t be entertaining any notions of relieving us of our valuable yard waste and recyclables collections.) I have fab-u-lous posts scheduled for next week, however!!! So stay tuned! I know you’re panting with excitement…
And in case you haven’t noticed, I don’t post on weekends. Ciao!
P.P.S. I keep getting stressed out over comments but please, y’all, don’t stop commenting. It’s only my frayed nerves of the past month or so that makes me think everyone is out to get me when you’re just trying to make me laugh. Mommy really needs a vacation!
Umm… CAPABLE houseitters? How about fantastic?! Best ever?!
Tell Bubba I’ll see him tomorrow….:)
Come home soon! Seattle misses you when you go away…..(sob).
Observing my rich sister has taught me that after awhile the wealthy not only enjoy but EXPECT the smarmy “we do it all for you, moneyed folk” approach. Just sayin’.
Um, Mary…they’re just trying to show you how very special you are and what a valuable addition you are in making the skies and friendlier to be. And it is their distinct pleasure to be at your service should you need anything to make your travel arrangements more comfortable.
And, for your information, the Crown Room Club is one of the finest of it’s kind. Pretzels are, of course, complimentary and you can while away the hours drinking copious amounts of, yes, “complimentary” (but incredibly inexpensive) champagne.
Now really….is that SO bad? Wet-wipe? Oh I see….let me get the whole container for you
(Have a stupendous time!!!! You luxury gal you!)
(Okay…yes English is my “first” language. That first sentence should actually read “…and what a valuable addition you are in making the skies a friendlier place to be.”)
You know…because that clarification was of the UTMOST importance.
Oy!
