OT - NO POLITICS Hazy Days of Winter.

When I checked in to my flight yesterday, the middle seat was open and I was psyched. As I got on the plane I saw a woman sitting in the middle seat of my row, so was a little bummed. But then, imagine my surprise and delight when I got to sit next to THIS very good boy!

This hits hard. I never even watched Buffy or Harriet the Spy but being a 90s kid I'd been familiar with her since she was a child actress. Eurotrip was good memories though. This sucks.

Yeah, I mean personally I was psyched but I thought it was odd. They don’t even serve peanuts on airlines anymore because of allergies

Back in the fall I wanted to bring my dog with me to visit my parents but all the airlines said he had to fit in the approved carrier and stay under the seat at all times, so I had to leave him behind.

They've even cracked down on the emotional support dog grift thing, so I don't know how this lady managed to have the dog out unless she got a legit service dog certificate. And I've never seen a service shihtzu before.

I read an article that said she had just had a liver transplant Just awful. She was excellent in Harriet the Spy and Buffy. She was also great in Gossip Girl.

We lost heat in 2 out 3 zones again yesterday. Slept in the basement where the heat still worked. Plumber is here now replacing the circulators. The entire system was just drained and a small amount of crud came out of the water, which could have locked up the circulators I guess. Didn't seem like that much to me, and I was here when the new furnace went in and watched them flush the system beforehand. Plumber says that particular circulator is just a crapshoot.

I know nothing about these things, but just looking at the new circulators going in now they appear to be 3x beefier. That has to be a good thing. I think?

It doesn't take much to put a circulator offline in my experience. I've had them get air bound or just have a tiny piece of gunk get in there somehow and poof! No heat. When we replaced the furnace we had new, stronger circulators put in too. Haven't had a problem since.

I'm in the same boat. I have no patience for "emotional support" dogs on planes. Compounding the problem is that my son and I are both allergic.

Only thing I can think of is it was JetBlue, she was very clearly Mosaic status, and we were in the even more room section.

But I was surprised. Didn’t seem to be a service dog.

Harriet the Spy was one of my favorite books when I was a kid

While that's awesome, I also hate it. I assume this was some fake ass "emotional support" animal bullshit for why the dog was on the flight and in the cabin and not locked in a cage?

EuroTrip was hilarious.
