Yeah, I didn't sleep much this weekend and my 6AM flight this morning solidified the full-on nap I took the entire leg from LAX to Denver. Unfortunately, our flight had mechanical difficulties and then we had jetway issues once we landed in Denver. I had already started to plot how I was going to get to Detroit which involved two more flights, when I discovered there were several
United Global Services passengers on my flight with the same itinerary. If you watched the movie,
Up In The Air, then you know exactly what I am talking about--that elusive card that gives you multiple flight benefits and carries enough clout to hold a plane. So after running through the Denver airport huffing and puffing due to the altitude, I found out that they held the plane for us....okay, really just for them. I lucked out that they had the same itinerary. Now you know that those secret airplane perks are all true and I just benefitted from them even with my little old Premier Elite card.
I am hitting the first press day tomorrow of
NAIAS and I am sure I will
tweet all of the updates happening from the show floor. However, my first priority when I landed was eating at
Slows, my favorite Detroit restaurant. I stuffed my face with St. Louis ribs, Mac and Cheese, Mashed Sweet Potatoes, and a Brisket Enchilada. I know I am supposed to fit into a tiny dress on Thursday for the
IAWTV Awards, but a girl has got to eat.
Have a great week, everyone, and don't forget to enter my
2012 Dress Challenge for Oscar Nominations. The last day to enter is Wednesday, January 11th and the winner gets a $25 gift certificate!
