Although *I* made it to Michigan, my luggage (and the Christmas
gifts contained therein) did not. Hopefully one of the airlines
involved will locate it. The presents can be replaced but if I
have to replace the clothes it'll be costly and time-consuming
and it's going to put a crimp in my winter vacation if I don't
have an outdoor jacket or any other form of winter clothing.

That's crummy, Mike! I'll go dumpster dive behind SEATAC's Alaska commercial
dumpsters and look. What color are the suitcases?

Ugh. I have been really lucky in the luggage department. I have lost my
luggage twice and both times were over 20 years ago when I was a
teenager. But I am always a little paranoid about it and make sure to
pack a couple of days worth of clothes into my carry on bag. Which
means, I often dont have room for the stuff I would actually like to
have with me on the plane.
Anyhow, both times the airlines lost my luggage, they found the luggage
after a couple of days and returned it to me fairly quickly. I hope for
a similar outcome for you.

Can't recall having ever lost any luggage on a plane, but an airline
once lost my sister's dog. She put the dog in one of those pet
containers, and it flew up in the luggage area (dog was too big to get
carried on) Anyway the plane landed at the airport, and there was no
dog. At first they claimed the dog/container was never loaded on the
plane, but later it came out that the airport luggage people forgot
where the dog was supposed to de-plane and the dog stayed on the plane
to the next stop. Had to catch another later plane back. The dog was
terrified by the time he got there.

Poor bugger. I've had luggage delayed after being on a plane before.

resp:23 Oh man, that is terrible. I could handle it if my luggage got
lost but I would seriously freak out if my dog got lost by an airline.

The summer before last when my nephew Ramsey came to visit, his
luggage was mistakenly sent to one of the cruise ship lines, who
loaded it aboard their vessel and sailed off with it. Although
they were eventually reunited, we had to buy him new clothes for
the trip and his luggage (which made it all the way up the Inside
Passage to Skagway) got to see more of Alaska than he did.

re resp:15 Well, I was bummed, but now I'm glad to read that your plans
are going ahead. The holidays can be an awfully stressful time.

IBB I have a nasty cold right now. At the moment I am grateful for the
wonderful people who invented kleenex and dayquil. I want this day to
be over so I can go home and crawl under the covers for the next two
days. Oh and I also want to get my nose amputated.

I've had good luck chasing colds away with multiple shots of whiskey,
possibly with lemon or honey, and huddling under the covers in a
slightly overheated room overnight.

I have had good success with that zinc nasel gel. Sometimes I have
barely gotten a cold at all.

I got home from work and did the dishes. My wife just finished chewing me
out for my inconsideration because the activity woke her granddaughter
[8:30am]. As a third shifter, uninterrupted sleep doesn't exist for me and
the dream that it might return evaporated decades ago. i guess that i'm just
bummed that she took the liberty to dump the blame on me, rather than consider
the possibility that the granddaughter already slept a few hours beyond her
regular time to get up.
Scourge me: I'm certain that I deserve it.

Third shift work is tough as you're always bucking the majority. It
takes a special person to adapt for the long haul.

Fitz, that's too bad. You're working at an odd time as it is, and you
still want to help out around the house. Quite frankly, hats off to
you!
