Still dealing with Sandy fallout/mess(in more ways than one!

) at work(mood there is not exactly cheery

)) but have been informed by S/O that we will be at the Garnier for Ballet on Feb 14th!

So I was able to score FF flights on Delta..non-stop both ways though the return (on AF) leaves Paris at the unGodly hour of 8:30!
But for 60,000 miles and $87.50..I'll take it! Esp as it gets harder and harder to get actual flts with miles....grab it!

Mood enhancer!

Merci!

I've been preparing my PPD war chest! I have tickets to Lion King on B'way for March, a friend just e-mailed she got a Lower Eastside Chocolate tour for two as a retirement gift,,,we'll be going March or april, and my niece e-mailed yesterday that she might have free opera tickets for tonite

...an ex with whom she's still friendly(smart girl!) is a scenery painter for the Met Opera and has been getting free tickets lately...I told her anytime once I get back!

and then I'll start planning my rather ...ahem..significant, ahem...B'day trip!

Have a great trip!!! I assume you're planning your upcoming 30th birthday?

Glad to hear you won't be stuck in the airport because of snow, but hope it doesn't cause problems for your return--wouldn't want you sleeping on a cot at CDG like Sis!

holger: I am not switching so if the rest of you leave, it will be farewell. Makes no sense to create a new site instead of just posting here. have enough work related list servs and blogs to read and respond to. Certainly don't need ano Feb 24, 2015 16:47:51 GMT -5

holger: It really does seem as if the site is moribund. Too bad and as I no longer have emails for anyone on my computer just want to wish you all well. I do check periodically but mostly now go to slow travel and the France forum there. Apr 22, 2015 7:54:32 GMT -5
