I made the mistake of sitting on a Multistrada S today........I hate the old ones but this thing is awesome........I shouldn't have done that.

A minivan pulled over to let me pass even though I wasn't tailgating. Because I rock. \m/

Many of you know I travel quite a bit for work.

I think I may have had the closest call to a really bad day on an airplane today.

We are on approach like normal, heading down to the runway, which is nearly in sight, when the pilot brings the nose up and throttles up the engines.

We circle back around and give it another go.

This time, the pilot remembers to put the landing gear down and we land smoothly.

Guess its hard to hear the landing gear alarm when the pilot's iPod is blasting away in his ears   

Or he's busy pouring a cocktail.

On the way out did all the passangers get to punch the flight crew?

The flight crew advised us that "there was another aircraft that hadn't quite cleared the runway, so we thought we'd circle back around..." 

And they conveniently left the cockpit door closed while we deplaned.

For some reason I agreed to help a friend move. She has not found a new place and must be out of the current one by Sunday. I think the plan is to put it all in storage. This friend is not the organized or thoughtful type. This means I will work hard all day and she will not offer to get coffee or food.

My dog was barking at another dog in a different car. Its very distracting.

I have 85 dollars in my account to last me until the 25th
