Sitting in front of a very talkative toddler. Not a fun flight at all. Not at all.

Eight months of travelling and I am yet to find an airline magazine where the Sudoku page is not already filled in. Not even a single one.

Page 6: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                  

Gate 45 MKE airport, listening to LP, sprawled on a chair, wondering how much sleep deprivation a human body can take before shutting down.

             

3 hours to kill at ORD. I people watch. They stare back. I wonder if they're pissed at United for having to pay $15 for one freakin’ luggage.

      

6 | P a g e   

Page 7: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                   

Tried out airline "standby" today. At boarding I'm told I had no boarding pass. They had called for me four times but I had my earphones on.

              

At sunny Denver airport heading towards Dayton. My Frontier confirmation code is "HORSHY" and fare basis code is SA7AN, I'm not kidding.

Detroit Airport underground walkway. Tunnel reminds me of Logan's Run. Crazy flashing lights. Surprised no one started foaming in the mouth.

             

Today must be Bring Your enraged, screaming child to Northwest Airlines Flight 5866 Day.

TSA lady rummaging through second bag. I had missed luggage check-in. All are now carry-ons. I hadn't unpacked the Swiss Army knife. Uh oh.

              

Too late to park car at long-term airport lot. I think I parked at cheaper parking garage and NOT the $24 a day lot. Damn you closed I-480.

Guy next to me on plane was whistling through his nose constantly. I took a nap to the lulling sound instead of getting all rage-y.

              

That hot, young babe walking around with toilet paper under her shoe at West Palm Beach airport just now. That was me.

     

10 | P a g e   

Page 11: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                

The plane to Atlanta was so shaky that I think I made love to it. Twice.

                

I have a terrible urge to climb that dinosaur skeleton monstrosity at ORD.

     

11 | P a g e   

Page 12: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                  

Look! A quarter at the bottom of the escalator! But I have too much pride to pick it up.

            

If the pilot uses the word 'magnificent' one more time, I am so going to leave my chewed up gum under the seat.

       

12 | P a g e   

Page 13: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                  

Lady next to me on plane just dropped her carry-on on my foot. Must. Resist. The Power. Of. The Dark Side. I'll stick the gum on her bag.

             

What I didn't tell anyone: I spent 45 min looking for my car in the airport parking garage last night. In my defense, it was a multi-level.

      

13 | P a g e

Don't you just love it when you and the chick in the next toilet stall open the shared garbage receptacle at the same time? Awkward.

            

It's very satisfying interrupting phone conversations by flushing toilet. Bathroom tweets. Fun. I'm stuck in LGA airport for 5 hrs, people!

       

14 | P a g e   

Page 15: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                  

Hanging out at the Minnesota Airport overnight. If I say there's a rave going on over here, would you come? Bring drinks!

            

Airport janitor gave me a mat! Wondering if I will be disturbed if I sleep ALL DAY LONG on my mat until the 10:45 PM flight. I'm that tired.

       

15 | P a g e   

Page 16: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                 

I've got the monopoly on this electric socket. Go away. *hisssss*

             

Which is more painful? Searing ear pain from pressure change or having to hear this toddler whine nonstop behind me throughout the flight?

       

16 | P a g e   

Page 17: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                  

Just woke up from MKE flight nap. Wonder if I snored? Guy didn't elbow me in ribs which is what Dan would do if I snored. I'll never know.

          

I typed in "snored" on my phone and the predictive text suggested, "pooped".

         

17 | P a g e   

Page 18: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                  

I was relaxing in my fancy spacious exit row seat, checking out twitter, when this older lady came up and told me I was sitting in her seat.

            

Got bumped to 1st class. If she'd been an elderly 'old' lady, I'd have given her the seat. Selfish me. I jumped up out of there so fast.

       

18 | P a g e   

Page 19: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                

In first class, these small soda glasses are cute-enough-to-steal cute.

              

I wish I had a magic imp that puts people to sleep when they talk really loud near me about religion and politics on a 45 min flight.

       

19 | P a g e   

Page 20: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                  

Playing 'Dude, Where's My Car?' I am sooo getting mugged in a parking garage.

            

Now playing, 'Dude, Where's My Parking Garage Ticket?'

       

20 | P a g e   

Page 21: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                

Lots of running in the airport today. I think I ruptured my spleen. Or my lungs.

            

Eyelids drooping, lips trembling, my thoughts in a fritz. Come to me, Midwest Airlines chocolate chip cookie.

         

21 | P a g e   

Page 22: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

               

Phone just slipped out of my back pocket into the toilet. That's not good.

               

Agent scolded me and a couple of passengers for being late at the gate. He was calling out our names in the intercom. I blame gremlins.

       

22 | P a g e   

Page 23: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                 

Spent the last hour staring at the wing waiting for a gremlin to materialize. Guess I didn't fly first class today.

             

You're transferring my Midwest flight with a connection to Milwaukee with a Delta flight non-stop? Noooooooo! Chocolate chip cookie... sigh.

       

23 | P a g e   

Page 24: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                  

Dear TSA agent who will be opening my luggage today: It's your lucky day! Assuming you have an extremely dirty and smelly laundry fetish.

            

Off to the airport to fly Stand By and pretend I'm in the Amazing Race.

       

24 | P a g e   

Page 25: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                  

Swapped my fancy exit row seat with lots of legroom with a very, very tall guy because I'm very, very nice. Where's my medal?

            

Eavesdropping on Houston flight crew who are waiting for gate agent. One of 'em had been up since 2AM. Nice to know.

       

25 | P a g e   

Page 26: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                  

Handed some 26-year-old girl's California driver's license I found in in the Omaha restroom to a red-eyed airport security guy. Hmm.

         

Last 10 minutes of this Continental flight smelled like burnt hair.

          

26 | P a g e   

Page 27: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                  

Don't watch Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay on your laptop on a flight next to an old dude and you're sitting on the aisle seat.

          

There's a blonde hair on my airline pillow and it's not the same shade as mine.

         

27 | P a g e   

Page 28: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                  

Exit door weighs 45 lbs. But that's the least of my worries. I'd have to jump off wing on 2-inch heels. No slides out this exit seat. :(

            

Tall guy from Monday was on same flight. Didn't realize til at baggage claim. He & wife could've had my seat and the empty seat next to me.

       

28 | P a g e   

Page 29: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                 

Flight attendant 'Thank You, Sir'd me. Is it my manly baseball hat? My manly leather jacket? Or my manly black purse slung over my shoulder?

             

Still debating what's worse: screamy kid who kept kicking my chair or guy across the aisle who kept farting.

       

29 | P a g e   

Page 30: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                

New Hampshire TSA agent just made me go through the metal detector again because I had my thumb in my pocket.

           

Someone left 52 cents on seat 20F. Score!

          

30 | P a g e   

Page 31: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                  

Everyone's quietly talking about that one Asian guy wearing a mask on this flight.

          

Smiling at the young guy at gate D4 holding a dozen peach rosebuds.

       

 

31 | P a g e

Is it so shallow of me to ask for a good looking, good smelling guy to sit next to on this plane? Oh, why can't it be David Cook?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Stranded in EWR till tomorrow. Anyone in the Newark area want to take me out for a kick ass time tonight? Anyone? I'll buy drinks?

 

 

 

 

 

32 | P a g e   

Page 33: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lady wanted to trade my seat with her because she wanted to chat with friend. Two hours of screamy toddler later, I must draw blood.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Got warned by the cute flight attendant it will cost me $13,000 in fines if I assaulted a flight attendant. What constitutes as assault?

 

 

 

 

33 | P a g e   

Page 34: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have a sinking feeling I made the elderly gentleman miss his flight after blathering about Bangkok, Subic Bay, Dubai, and Bahrain. Oops.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pondering what the consequences are if I snuck into the flight to London. Or Amsterdam. Yes Amsterdam.

 

 

 

 

 

 

34 | P a g e

Who in their right mind would take pictures of the outrageous monstrosity that is the Chicago Airport? Silly tourists.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Almost committed involuntary manslaughter with overhead luggage. Thank goodness for male chivalry. I really need to start lifting weights.

 

 

 

35 | P a g e   

Page 36: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Toilet stall flew open and I stared, shocked, at the man for 2 seconds. Nope, not a man. Just a manly woman.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If anyone asks, I'm aimlessly wandering around in the bowels of Omaha's airport parking lot.

 

 

 

 

 

36 | P a g e   

Page 37: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The guys from United Airlines counter asked me if they should move to Omaha. Apparently they're closing in a few months. Stoopid economy.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I wish I had pretty dainty toes painted in pretty colors just like this pretty twenty-something in 15F.

 

 

 

 

 

37 | P a g e   

Page 38: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Routine: Warn guy sitting below overhead. Lift luggage. Fumble. Shove. Pull on earplugs to have Tool blaring blasphemously. Yeah, that part.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Spent a quarter of an hour trying to establish the origins of that smell. Turns out the lady across the aisle simply farted.

 

 

 

 

 

38 | P a g e   

Page 39: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pondering what people would think if I were to 'accidentally' spill the contents of a box of Trojan magnums while exiting the aircraft.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fiddlesticks. Chicago flight is delayed. Now I have time to contemplate on the meaning of life. Or I can just glare at annoying children.

 

 

 

 

39 | P a g e

Yes! Found gum in my purse. I can still salvage this. Kinda crunchy.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The lid of this black Papermate pen just totally flew in the air and crash-landed on to this cute guy in 22B's crotch.

 

 

 

 

 

 

40 | P a g e

If I were rich, I would visit what's listed in Microsoft's Time Zone settings. I bet you didn't know there's a place called Nuku'alofa?

          

Didn't see any gremlins on the plane's wing today. Not *everyone* can afford the six dollar drinks you know.

        

41 | P a g e   

Page 42: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                  

In Minneapolis airport, I offered a military guy my laptop so he could send an email to Afghanistan. I feel so patriotic. Viva l'Etats Unis!

            

Hey you counter guy of Chicago Airport's Reggio Pizza Express, must you spray my left arm with the glass cleaner?

       

42 | P a g e   

Page 43: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                 

I really wish I'd snuck into that Amsterdam flight.

Reserved Homewood Suites room for yesterday instead of today, yet nice desk clerk waived fee, discounted $45, a flat screen, and a Sherman. 

Homewood guy is turning borderline creepy. Was coming in through a side door and he suddenly materializes, offers breakfast muffins at 2 AM!

45 | P a g e   

It's sad when you spend so much time away from home that you're at the highest rewards level at Hilton and Marriott. Sheraton, here I come.

Planning an all-nighter so I got a Red Bull, a pint of Ben & Jerry's Chubby Hubby, a diet coke, and a Slim Fast shake. Take that ketones!

Page 46: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                                     

Nothing. Nothing is more disgusting than brushing your teeth, and realizing your Head & Shoulders shampoo leaked while in your toiletry bag.

Cincinnati power outages. Almost crashed into someone because traffic lights are out. Contemplating on selling Hampton Inn's ice for money.

At hotel bar where unconventionally women are majority. Conversation revolving around shopping. Ugh. Going back to room to watch violent TV.

"Hayden" from housekeeping keeps leaving me cookies, chocolates, and personal messages. She obviously hasn't seen my sexy granny underwear.

Page 48: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                                

Packing a suitcase is an art form. Rage and violence is an art form, right?

Sometimes, when I'm all alone in a hotel pool, I pretend to be Phoebe Cates and be all slow-motion-y. Yes, I have a lonely life.

     

48 | P a g e   

Page 49: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

               

I don't steal pens from hotel rooms. Ahem.

                     

Argh! Lost my mouse USB plug thing for my laptop. Can't function! $20 to anyone who brings me a mouse to this Hilton Milwaukee. And a drink?

 

49 | P a g e   

Page 50: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                                    

Doubletree elevator. Pretty lady's gobbling down the complimentary chocolate chip cookie faster than cookie monster. Um, yeah, that is me.

Housekeeping stepped on Izzy's new Garfield book and creased it. Must have done it while stepping over my mess to open the window. Sad face.

 

50 | P a g e   

Page 51: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                   

This ATL Doubletree’s hallway smells like ham and arm pits. And maybe Ryann's mom. FTW!

              

Ok. I publicly recant that last part. She smells really nice. Sawwy.

    

51 | P a g e

I have a Mentos, a bottle of Coke, and am in a room I have no obligations to clean up after. Chuckle chuckle.

                  

At Newark Hilton debating whether or not cherry Twizzlers are lunch and dinner material.

52 | P a g e

Sitting outside Concord Marriott Courtyard's courtyard pretending I have friends.

                      

Moving under street lamps, I let the New Hampshire mist envelop me. Heels made slow clicking sound on the pavement until I stepped on gum.

53 | P a g e   

Page 54: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                        

Procured the last chocolate chip cookie from the front desk. You may have heard a scuffle and some territorial hissing. But I'm alright!

           

I am taller than the Japanese guy in the elevator. ♫ Life is fair. ♫

Rocking to Octane XM satellite, checking out hot La Jolla surfer dudes, almost committing vehicular homicide twice down Prospect Street.

Wished someone told her about the $4.50 toll to Long Beach. Or the California cell phone law. Explains psychotic driver angrily tailgating me.

Page 56: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                     

Speeding down freeway to airport blasting ADIDAS when cop starts tailgating me. I exit slow and he still follows. After two miles he leaves.

            

Everything I know about defensive driving I learned from GTA San Andreas. Quick! Where's the closest Pay 'N' Spray?

    

56 | P a g e

Fifteen minutes looking for a key hole. Buttons everywhere. Car manual is not in the glove box. Gasoline-electric hybrid cars are a riot.

            

Something just flashy thingy me at this intersection. Hoping the strobe flash was from Men In Black and not a speeding ticket.

Sitting in rental car in mall of Manchester parking lot, working up the courage to limp into the stores with a broken shoe.

            

Amazing! I didn't realize I can have such marvelous road rage while listening to Chopin's Nocturne Op. 9 No. 2.

Manhattan cabby told me that my car will probably get towed after midnight. Had parked it on the street at Queens & took subway to downtown.

Nightmarish train ride back. Was already worried sick about car. Missed stops. Had murder in mind when harmonica guy began playing in train.

Page 60: A Nutty Consultant's Facebook Status Updates

                  

Car did not get towed. I will tempt the Alternate Side Parking Law another day.  

                

After dropping Pramila off on my way to my rental car, friendly Punjabi cabby held out his hand. I shook it. He held it. I'm a creep magnet.

Got my own office this week! I actually got a personalized phone, a desk, 3 chairs, a whiteboard, and a direct view of the men's bathroom.

Client: "You don't seem like you're from Omaha, Nebraska. You act like you're from the city." (The city=NYC.) Me: "Haha." There were tears.

My hands smell like lemon fresh Pine-Sol. My mom would be so proud!

             

If I had a stalker, he would be sniffing Pine-Sol, right about... now.

Nutella and me? We're best buds.

                   

Impromptu conference call with Jan to find out where the paper towels are! Pretending to work at a real job is super fun.

What are the short-term effects for inhaling too much ammonia? Are there bleeding under fingernails and incessant chanting to Cthulhu?

You want me to climb that? I asked my father-in-law, looking at the 15-foot ladder. But I gave you grandchildren! That's what I wish I said.

Summoning up all my will power to get my ass off the couch and take a shower. The dog poop between my toes will not wash itself. #mowedthelawn

Scored free lunch at Rick's Cafe today. My college education is starting to pay off.

Day #53 of Unemployment: Learning Pashto تښپ

Oh boy! A Snickers bar in my laptop bag that my dogs haven't discovered first. How many PS2 thumb clicks does it take to burn 280 calories?

Took a blue clicky pen from the Stonybrook post office on accident. Should I drive all the way and give it back?

                

Bathroom scale is saying, "LO". There's a joke in there somewhere but I'm too lazy to think it.

Grease splatters my left eye while frying frozen fries and burns my lachrymal ducts. Upside: Won't be crying so much when I sell my liver.

Day #55 of Unemployment: Mysterious groceries in pantry and fridge are not there because my hubby went shopping but are from the in-laws.

Graphic violence, brutality, lust for vengeance mixed in with sheer euphoria and divine ecstasy. (Tom & Jerry) + (Ben & Jerry) = GOOD.

                

Me: That's my friend Jeremy from college in my Facebook. He introduced me to Peanut Butter Cups. Hubby: "Is Peanut Butter Cups" a stripper?

All the perfect jobs require relocation. Someone, invent a matter transporter already! And no Mel, I will not rematerialize at "Booby Trap".

If I'd have to pick what were-animal I want to be, I'd be a were-elephant. I mean, then I can totally slaughter the cast of Twilight.
