Today's fortune cookie: "Perhaps you've been focusing too much on that one thing." Most probably.
Wow! Who flipped the winter switch?! It's 26 F. here in Buffalo!!!

Heading to Williamsport PA in an hour to pick up my car with its rebuilt transmission. :) RoadTrip
Good to be back in DC even if it's not 82 outside. :)

Not as warm in DC as it was in Tampa. Metro seemed like a good idea compared to the huge taxi line at DCA but track work gets in the way...

Actually sitting on a plane on the ground at DFW. BabySteps ...
A tiny tasteless and soggy sandwich is better than no sandwich at all. DFW day...
When AmericanAirlines blames TSA and vice versa, nobody wins.
Possible takeover of American Airlines by USAirways would hike prices - http://ping.fm/giJ1j
Boy, oh boy. Third flight to Tampa is declared "100% full." Hope they're "100% wrong." DFW Follies. Might need to cancel hotel reservation
Less is more...more or less. :)
At 35,000 ft., your senses of smell and taste are diminished.
The contrast between the Singapore airport and DFW is dramatic. Worlds apart in more ways than one.
Just follow the bouncing passenger... DFW AmericanAirlines
Well that was a bust. Step right up, ladies and gentlemen, for the Standby Edition of Musical Gates at DFW. 12:45, anyone?
No. 10 on standby for a very full flight to Tampa. Not overly-optimistic right now. AmericanAirlines MusicalPlanes
A blessed, happy, joyous and fun-filled Friday to y'all... :)
Great examples of poor management abound at DFW today. Putting the "cuss" in customer service.
@Sisarina advised me to "just breathe." I think I have Sia's "Breathe" on my iPod Thanks Melanie and Steve Jobs!
And now for a 4 hr wait for a chance at standby. DFW + AmericanAirlines + TSA = Perfect Storm for Failure. Major capacity issues here.
TSA = transportation slowing agency fail
DFW - a terrible place out of which to fly. YDA only had 2 of 4 lanes open. Then opened 2 more after 35 min. Ridiculous. fail
Success in Dallas! Tampa bound today...

Rather than resist, embrace the negative to get unstuck. Transformation
Focus on your limitations and they will limit you. Focus on your possibilities and they will become possible.

My sister reported that "Mom has a lot of Hootspa!" I mentioned that the spelling was Chutzpah. "HootSpa" would be a resort for owls. :)
My Mom apparently headed to the bathroom by herself around midnight at the rehab center causing 6 aids and nurses to scramble. :)
Am I willing to trade away some money or prestige for a happier life - to live my personal values?

Patient: "Thank you! I feel like a whole person!" Me: "Better than being half-assed." Is that wrong? ;-)
There's no latitude when it comes to the attitude of gratitude.
April 3rd?! Whatever happened to February and March?!
"Morning has broken..." (but I still think that it can be fixed.)
