In the interest of seeing both sides ...


 T.S.A. Now Finds Itself on the Defensive - This Land - NYTimes.com 

Decent article on airport security, for those of you who might think that I'm crazily anti-TSA. If all security could sound this competent, I might be more patient with them. Unfortunately I rarely see this level of professionalism. I get agents who snap at you when you're polite, and agents who mumble and roll their eyes when you skip one of the 10,000 different things to remember going through security . And no one who looks alert for suspicious behavior, I just see people who look like they're counting down until quitting time.

End rant.

This is why we wanted to fly


I can't believe how little she used to be! I was just going through old pictures on my computer, and came across ones from the first day we got her.  If only she were still this little; she would definitely fit as an airplane carry-on.

Molly tried to blockade me out of the office today!  I went to the kitchen to grab something, and when I got back I could only open the office door about a foot-- she had rolled the Kong up next to the door, so it was acting like a doorstop.  Thankfully I could reach my foot around and kick it out of the way-- just barely!

Tomorrow will be the moment of truth... Will Southwest think that she can "stand up and turn around comfortably"?  We had a bit of a debacle with the kennel we were going to use, so now Stefano's boss is going to take her if we can't take her with us.  What a disaster...
