[...] some months ago before the whole dress shopping thing, I told you about how Phil and I went and got some engagement pictures taken? Well, even though it goes completely against the spirit and long standing tradition of this blog, [...]

Whenever I was flying back and forth to Phoenix with a screaming child next to me, I always asked the mother if she needed a pillow….

Welcome back east! Did you get the snow like we did Saturday? PITB, but beautiful (or beeooooootiful like they say in South Philly). Hmm

So, I love the pics. Yep, fish face and all. And I”m truly sorry you got stuck with that kid across the entire U.S. of A. Yes, it is worse to be the parent transporting said kid. But I’ve been lucky, and other than a couple of upchucks, (not to mention trying to nurse them on the plane) mine have been excellent travellers since the age of 5 weeks or so. Now that they’re 15 and 11, I guess they wouldn’t like to know that I’m sharing that with the Interwebs, would they? heheheheheh

I was preparing something undoubtedly witty concerning things in your post when I came across Screaming McPutSockInMouth and all wit took a dive off the balcony. That right there is a prime example of why I hate children and wish people would have less of them and certainly wish they wouldn’t take them on long trips that involve trains, planes or buses. I am certain that if you and Phil ever have mini spawn I am certain they will not be so irritating at least.

Ugh. Sorry you had to go through Ordeal by Shrieking. I am excited to see the Brinkley pictures when possible; they sound fantastic.

I sympathize with the screaming spawn. From Vegas to Hartford, however, I found out that little spoiled brat “princess” dogs (ya know..the ones who never touch the ground and can hardly be called a dog because, really, they’re more like a dustmop with feet?) who do that high-pitched whine the whole way can cause the head to split in a very similar manner. I don’t blame the dog. I blame the owner for not training their “poopsie wooosie” to travel before getting on a 6 hour flight…or for not sedating them. Or for not sedating me. Morons.

Well it sounds like the rollercoaster car has left the station! Best of luck dress shopping and hopefully you won’t get whatever Phil is coming down with. I’d be more witty but head cold and lack of sleep is making it difficult to pretend to be human. Oh and screaming children for long plane rides suck. Period. Whether you are the parent, or the fellow passenger.

I did something similar yesterday regarding the extra driving thing. We were on our way to a casino here in Indiana, and when I got off on the exit, I turned onto what I THOUGHT was the casino entrance. Guess what? It was the exit ramp BACK onto the interstate. The next exit where I could turn around was 6 miles away so I added an extra 12 miles onto our trip for no reason whatsoever. I was so mad at myself!
