Hi, friends!
I’ve got a flight next month at let me tell you, I’ve upped my travel game.
That’s right, I bought some compression socks because it’s a long flight.
What else have I done to prepare for travel in 2023? I sure as fuck haven’t lost any weight, so that’s right out. HAHAHAHAHHA
I bought some of those for the trip to Spain last year. Either I bought the wrong size or just put them on wrong because my legs still hurt like the dickens on the way there and back.
Where’re you going anyway. . .?
I got a boring work trip but I’m going to have a long travel time there and back thanks to layovers.
I haven’t flown since a couple of years before Covid. I don’t travel without my dog so car trips only.
It’s car or train for me, too. I like the ground.
I don’t mind flying but my dog has separation anxiety. She can barely stand for me to go to the grocery store without her, lol. So where I go, she goes.
I get separation anxiety when I’m away from planet earth.
I’m sitting on a train after dropping off my daughter at the airport. First time I took our train there to avoid traffic, works pretty well. SeaTac airport is usually a shitshow but 5pm on a Tuesday seems to be a good time to fly. Now, after all this train & car travel today I get to go play volleyball with a stiff body & heavy heart.
How is she feeling?
She was doing really well today. Hopefully she can keep going in that direction.
Another tip, if you ever go fishing in Hawaii & a fish drags you overboard, just let go! I love ahi as much as the next guy but not worth your life.

Old Man And the Ahi?
Oh man that blows. I was expecting an idiot tourist, not a dude from a different island.
Carry on, but if you must check a bag: Air Tags!

I am an android user but I have thought about it.
Don’t lose your passport.
The NBA’s youngest player couldn’t fly to a game in Paris on Thursday between the Bulls and Pistons because he lost his.
