arranging international travel is a HUUUUUGE pain in the ass. I had no idea. Here is some dodgy math: A flight from Cheesecake City to Germany is $800-ish, round trip. A flight from Germany to Kuala Lumpur is $1500-ish, round trip. To make both flights one itinerary = $7500. Does someone clean my house if…

OMGOMGOMG
Gene’s travel authorization has finally been approved. I think we’re really going!!! OMGOMGOMGOMG. Now onto important matters: Okay, so I suck about taking pictures. In all of the world, there is exactly one picture from our honeymoon to Disney World and it was taken with a disposable camera. That I can no longer find. Actually,…
BOOOOOM…
Did you hear that? I think I just blew my own mind. (Yes, I’m stil spinning my wheels looking at all the cool options for stuff we can do in Malaysia. It turns out that the 7 hour train between Kuala Lumpur and Singapore isn’t the only option…airplanes go there too! And it would cost…
Asian Tour ’08
OMG. So I’m in the early stages of planning our Theoretical Trip to Malaysia (well, theoretical for me, probable for Gene). We’ll be there for basically two full weeks – including a weekend (!!!!) so I personally and Gene in some ways will have time to burn. In a whole other country. Wowsers. Anyway, so…
ack…
Gene had to pay $5.89/gallon to fill up the rental. Oh, why why why did I not fill up when it was $3.69????
It’s a gas gas gas
There were lines at the gas station. WTF? (Well, I guess it was lucky there was even gas at the gas station… the Shell station close to my house didnt have any). I guess lines at the gas station or the skyrocketing prices (seriously – it went up $.90/gallon near my office yesterday) aren’t really…
And in much smaller news…
If everything goes well, laineyd.com will be prettier than ever by the end of September. Woohoo!
Hmmm, soooo….
I think I’m going to Malaysia with Gene in November. No, just for two weeks. This seems to be more likely to actually HAPPEN than a year or two ago when Gene dangled a work trip to London in front of me. (At the very least Gene is definitely going). We are still waiting for…
Payroll Princess
So, last week was National Payroll Week. (Yes, really. Payroll has a whole week… I think that maybe makes me 5-7 times cooler than the Easter bunny). We were too busy (you know, doing payroll!) to celebrate then but I arrived at work yesterday to find 3 mylar balloons, a basket of chocolate goodies and…
Xmas ’08
(yes, already) How about we call off Xmas this year for lack of babies interest? I have purchased one present so far but it can hold until his birthday rolls around. Gene revealed to me that he wants a gun for Xmas – and no, not a Red Ryder BB gun either. Nothing says Christmas…
