Valentine's Day... I LOVE My Husband, NOT American Airlines

Happy Day After Valentines Day! I hope everyone had a great day o' love! My Valentines Day started out with a trip to Lawton and then arriving back to the office to see these:

Was I happy at the thought? Sure... But I was REALLY shocked my husband sent these to me. Why? Well, he knows 2 things about me and flowers: 1) I HATE HATE HATE baby's breath. Like, seriously HATE and 2) Not a huge fan of roses, red is my LEAST favorite. So, when I called him to tell him thank you, I asked if he knew what they looked like, and he said no. I texted him a picture, and needless to say he was disappointed and explained that he said NO baby's breath, but with a caveat that peonies are not in season right now.... He also said that my present would make up for it and HE WAS RIGHT! He got me Michael Jackson's Experience for the Wii and I have been dancing every night as if MJ was reincarnated into my body. Tonight, I hit master level on Thriller, but hey... who's bragging?

So, this weekend we were going to take the train down to Austin and fly back on Monday with friends of ours for a fun weekend getaway. Well, our friends had a family emergency, so are not going to go. I quickly called American Airlines to explain the situation and asked if we could use that airfare to book a different flight. Well, they told me that they would be happy to help me for a $150 fee. I sat there for a second because I thought maybe I did not understand them correctly. No, I did.... They wanted to charge me $150 PER TICKET for "change fees" for a $129 flight. Hmmm.. really? Did I mention that I am an American Airlines Advantage member and we use them ALL THE TIME? Well, not anymore. I am L.I.V.I.D. Needless to say, we just flushed $260 down the drain. THANK YOU AMERICAN AIRLINES! Your customer service is impeccable. RI-dic-U-lous!

Have a GREAT week! ~Amy P.S. Our dog is learning how to pose....
