Why is it, at least for me, whenever I take a flight my gate is the farthest gate in the terminal?

Donna,

If I may, my brother is a pilot with a major airline and his answer to that question (I asked him the same thing a couple monts ago) is that the ontime departure and arrival statistics and the flight crew's flying time are based on the time they leave or arrive at the gate. Having to go way up the terminal to get to a gate impacts their pay and the airline's on time statistics.

Long answer and it still doesn't cover all the times you (and I) have to go all the way to the end of the terminal but..........

Hugs, Paige

Yesss, that was a good show. My wife and I went to see Billie Joel tonight.

But I still have to go to work in the morning.

I'm going to kill myself, I reckon.............because I haven't had heels on in so long. I hope I don't though, while I practise.

I think Donna should be doing her high-heel walking practise while between the parallel bars in the Physical Therapy Department - - that will save her a trip in case she trips!!!

Now that was the longest quickest trip that I have been on in a while and now only to come home and find that my car has problems. WHAT NEXT???

I'm feeling very much alone. Fwiw, alone does not mean lonely, nor is it a bad thing necessarily. I'm a solitary person, and "alone" is sometimes a very good way for me to feel.

Don't ya hate it when you know kinda what you are looking for but can't seem to find it anywhere????? Or at least at places you can afford (or get away with)

Wish I could have slept in. Got to demo woodturning at a woodworking show this morning out at the Dulles Expo Center. But then I get to check out all the new toys for sale.

Wheeee!! My first E-2000 appointment (electrologist) is April 25th. They will do one complete face clearing over @ 16 hours (two operators at a time, 8 hours each) for the first appointment. They use lidocaine injections to make it possible. Then three days at home for recovering from swelling and irritation. Sounds like fun, huh? Oh, come on!! I need the illusion that all will be well!!

Lorna -

You are such a riot, woman, that I think it would be absolutely awesome - and hilarious! - to actually meet you!! Someday soon, perhaps!
