But this flight was not too bad. There were no screaming rugrats to disturb my reading The New Yorker (oh, Calvin Trillin, you slay me!) I rebuffed the flight attendant's offer for earphones to watch the asinine in-flight movie Definitely, Maybe. (Definitely Not. I don't care how perfectly chiseled Ryan Reynolds' face is.)
I'm staying with my handler Paul at the Hyatt in Denver. So posh! (Remember, I work at a non-profit; anything with clean sheets and air conditioning is posh).
I got a little reading in with some complementary hotel books."Even as a hen gathereth her own brood
under her wings..." (Lk 13:34).
I clucked in disapproval at hotel prices.I can buy two cans of Schlitz for $4.50!
I woke up early and ordered room service. WTF? An omelet?! Don't they know what these are made of?? Pass the Cheerios, please.Our first session starts at 9 am today. I'll have lots of opera-goodness to share later.

Oh Carl, you are a spoiled, spoiled birdie - what if I told you it was an OSTRICH egg omelet..? Did you get a spa treatment, too?
