What do you do?

Yet another Piled Higher and Deeper that makes me think the author is spying on me. This gets really annoying, but I’ve developed a pretty solid tiered system of answers, going up in complexity as people keep asking for specifics. If I’m not in the mood, I’ll drop a bunch of jargon on them and hope they go away.

What do you do

I may be reachable in Canada

It turns out that we’re now staying in a hotel rather than with Amanda’s grandparents, and the hotel has internet access. I don’t know how good it will be, but it may be good enough for VoIP. If that’s the case, my 651 number (on the contact page should reach me, as well as email.

Out of Country Notice

I’ll be in Canada until Sunday afternoon (2008-06-15). I won’t be answering calls and will have my phone off most of the time. If you have my mobile number, the best way to reach me is to send me an SMS. I’ll return all calls on Monday the 16th.

Show up early, shop often

Commercials try to get us to buy, sure, but rarely have I heard something so overt as the Air Mall ads at MSP.

“With all of the selection, I don’t mind showing up early for my flight at all!”

“Come early for your flight, and make sure to shop as often as possible!”

(Emphasis not mine, sentences may not be accurate word-for-word.)

TV ads just did something I thought not possible — they got more annoying.
