I woke up in a magical land where the beds are soft (so soft my back hurts), the the cookies are free (but you only get one), the ginger ale flows like soda water (because their bar's soda fountain was broken), and nobody ever gets kicked out of the lobby for being black (except when they do).
Thanks, Doubletree!
(Actually, it was fine except for the queasy feeling of staying at a Doubletree after the Jermaine Massey incident, even at United's expense. C'est l'air.)
@Leucrotta Yeah, but after yesterday's travel delays, putting on that kind of face is the LAST thing I can do. :) I think I spent my entire Charm Pool on the United ticketing agent last night. (It worked, though. You wanna talk about a look of delight on somebody's face-- that poor overworked bastard when I told him I didn't insist on flying out first thing in the morning, and could even wait til Sunday if I had to...)
@zebratron2084 hope the travel thing resolves soon!
@zebratron2084 you know they give you more cookies if you ask especially if you look really happily innocent and delighted to have cookies, which is right up there with looking happy to be at the beach as things to display.
