| I interrupt your sunshine-and-rainbows day to bring you this important message: I'm annoyed. Not about anything specific. There's something just generally annoying about today. It started off fine. I managed thru a 1.5 mile jog followed by a 1.5 mile walk all before 6:30 a.m. I rewarded myself with an iced-coffee from McD's (sugar-free!) and also |

| I have a feeling it will be a while before we see our $25. Yesterday, my husband tried to contact US Airways once again about the incorrectly-assessed second-checked bag fee he paid Sunday. He spent nearly 20 minutes on hold and then - of course - had to hang up to go to (gasp!) work. He asked me to call US Airways to see what |

| As you might guess, it’s not over yet. My husband contacted US Airways representatives in Charlotte and Las Vegas, and each time was told they couldn’t help him. He now has a toll-free number to call (no doubt with a maze of “If you’re calling for…” messages to navigate). The US Airways |

| What's In A Marriage? |
| Published: June 15, 2008, 11:59 pm |
| You feel giddy all the time. The world has taken on a strange rosy luster. Nothing makes sense and everything makes sense. And you have feelings more profound than you ever knew were possible to feel. Is it some kind of dire illness? No, it's only Love with a capital "L." And the next letter is obviously Marriage, with a capital "M." You're |

| Sometimes, when I'm daydreaming, I look at photos of all the places I want to visit some day. If there's one place I'm dying to see in Spain, it's Barcelona. I'm sure Madrid is a great place as well, but there's just something about Barcelona that - in my mind - makes it one of the most romantic places to visit. (Maybe it's because my bloggy buddy |
