As you may have gathered from my Twitter stream, I am currently traveling and therefore may not be posting as much. Two things, though:
1. Kind of an amazing overheard in the Hudson bookstore in the Denver International Airport yesterday. I first noticed this chick because she was holding a book and reading the ENTIRE BACK COVER to someone on the phone. Then she finished and waited for input, apparently, about whether this book would be a suitable read. I guess her confidante advised against it, because she didn't buy the book.
She got in line behind me and I got a look at her. Tall, maybe 5'10" or 5'11", blonde, not especially attractive, wearing glitter on her face, no joke. This is not at 4 am at a club on Ibiza. This is at 6 pm at the Denver International Airport. Is there a Rave Area at DEN that I don't know about?
She's still on the phone. "Oh, this is so cool. One of the directors of the movie I'm doing is going on tour with Atmosphere and filming a video for them. He's not, like, the main director. He's the other director. You've met him. I know one of the singers in Atmosphere so that's cool."
I gotta see the movie that Face Glitter Chick is in. Also, what movie has more than one director? Maybe he's the First AD.
Also, Atmosphere turns out to be an American hip hop group from Minneapolis, Minnesota. I did not know that.
2. After my permanently traumatizing, PTSD-inducing, borderline-suicide-causing trip on United Airlines last month, I just want to say that FRONTIER AIRLINES IS THE SHIT and I will never cheat on you with another airline again Frontier. Somewhere over the Great Plains, happily ensconced in the entire bulkhead row which I had to myself, enjoying my third complimentary vodka, I realized how wonderful Frontier Airlines has made modern travel. We got there early. Fuck you, United.

I'm always amazed at the difference in a flying experience when I'm not spending the entire flight time seething at the airline for fucking up.
My flight last weekend to Saipan (from Guam! 45-minute flight full of quirky Pacific island gems...) on Continental/United-but-also-some-other-airline-was-involved was uneventful. So annoying not to have anything to bitch about; I just read the paper aloud and complained about that instead...
when are you going to find a new show to re-cap? Mad Men doesn't come back until 2012.
