Secret Obsession October 16, 2007

Posted by Emily in : Daily Life, Family, Friends, My Former Dog Children, Princess Hannah, Thoughts , trackback

I am 100% positive I am my Dad’s favorite.  Yesterday, when my parents were dropping Hannah and me off at the airport, the gate agent asked me if I would like to upgrade my seat to first class.  Hello?  Does my fat dog Paris like to eat her dinner?  YES!  Since the gate agent put the thought in my mind of traveling first class to Dallas from SLC, I could NOT imagine flying coach.  Those of you who know my secret obsession (that is really not that secret) with flying first class, know that I will sacrifice a lot to ensure a first class ticket.  Once you start flying first class, you can’t go back.  So don’t start!  Fortunately for me, no sacrifice was needed this time.  I just looked at my dad, and he understood immediately how utterly important it was to me to that he pay to upgrade my ticket.  Within a matter of seconds the credit card was pulled out and I was given my new seat assignment in row five.  Ah, gotta love parents.  Especially when they understand you! 

I am safely in Fort Worth now.  I am staying at Daniel and Lydia’s house.  I have extended my stay until next Tuesday.  I have WAY too many people to see and WAY too many things to do!  I’m sure I will see some of you around!

What an awesome Dad!! WOW!! Glad you were able to enjoy a little comfort on a plane with a one-year-old! That is a challenge no matter where you are sitting!

How fun!! First class is the best. When my FIL worked for Guidant they had tons of millage and they would sometimes let us use it to upgrade to first class when visiting them. Too bad he doesn’t have that job anymore :(.

What a great Dad! I’m sure it was way more comfortable in first class with a baby! I don’t really like flying coach either!
