Hello all!
I know that this time of year is supposed to be merry and bright. And usually I am too.
I love to travel, but sometimes it brings out the Grinch in me.
Allow me to elucidate.
Why I’m annoyed today:
1. There is no direct train from the city to any of the New York airports. In a city that is so good about public transportation, this is ridiculous. One of the best things about Atlanta is that you can take Marta directly to the airport. Well, the domestic terminal, anyway. If you are traveling international, the planning ninnies make you take a shuttle bus AROUND the airport. Stupid.
2. If a person has TSA Precheck, it’s a fair assumption that he knows the drill with the bins. Not the guy in front of me. He was a hot mess: Wrong boarding pass, waiting for the bin slot directly in front instead of going to the other two that were open, not realizing he couldn’t take his phone through the scanner. Dude, stay home.
3. If I’m sitting by myself in the waiting area, and there are five dozen open seats, DO NOT sit down next to me. I will cut you with my eyes.
4. Once you get on the plane, sling your suitcase in the overhead bin and immediately sit your ass down. People who take their time talking, taking off jackets, finding their glasses, etc., while BLOCKING THE AISLE (usually old white guys) drive me crazy.
5. The armrest is Switzerland.
Anyway, aside from minor annoyances like these, my annual birthday trip was great. I’ll write about it later.
Love and kisses,
Beth
My husband has TSA Precheck as he flys all the time. I flew for the first time in 6 years this fall and felt like a moron. I was able to go through the precheck line with him and I was a straight up fool. You would have cut me with more than your eyes. What happened to me?! 😕

Oh no. I would have tried to keep myself in check, but I might have to let out a deep sigh at the least.
