Zaxby's gave me boneless wings with my Wings 'n' Things plate. Ate all the "things" and went back to have the wings swapped out (intended to save for later and breaded boneless "wings" just get soggy). It unexpectedly came with more "Things," so I gave all that to my "hungry" coworker. He ate all the fries, chicken fingers, celery, toast, and still asked for one of my wings. I OK'd it.

At the end of the day I was finally ready to eat my four wings and opened it up only to find his eaten-off-of bone set right in the middle of my uneaten wings. WTF?! I don't even do that when I have no intentions of sharing and the the trash can was right next to him when he ate it! frickin' genius I work with here.

And DAMN did his breath STINK this morning. It's why I also bought him a soda. Not even remotely tempted to eat wings that contacted his leavings.
 
I was reminded that most of the batteries in my devices (e.g. remotes, flashlights) are over 5 years old and almost all alkaline. Now I have to blow a couple bucks to replace them.
 
I had to call the airline to get my ticket reissued so I could check in online because when they bumped me to first class it borked my ability to check in.
And I sat on hold for 16 minutes and then it took another 18 to reissue it.

how far you flying?


Emirates wanted 12.5k miles to upgrade to 1st class, but it was only for 3 hours so I didn't bother.

Nothing nearly so luxurious.
ORD-DFW on united. Upside is I would have probably purchased 2 or 3 drinks so that saves me about $18, and I do have a little more hip room.
 
Now I just need to convince my boss to let me leave a little earlier today so I can do sit in the lounge, have a drink and unwind. Been a hectic week. Need to get the weekend started ASAP.
