I also have experienced the 'de icing' only to be told that our bathroom water was still frozen and we needed to de-board so they could heat up the plane to sauna-like temperatures. Then we had to 'de ice' again. And all I really wanted was to escape five degree weather!"

Commented on So, You're Thirty!:
   "I really enjoyed your latest on how to slow down a mid life crisis. I've had a lot of the same thoughts and it's really refreshing to read your viewpoint. I find a lot of people don't admit to their struggles on social media and that is what makes us all human doesn't it? The humble bragging along with the constant-day-update are the people that drive me nuts the most. I stopped following a few because of it. Great list and great reminders! I plan on reading it a few times."

   "If it makes you feel any better I use a Blue Sky planner and I'm in my early thirties. I grew up as technology developed along with me. So I kind of feel like I've been a test pilot of many things, but I still remember the simpler versions of most of today's items. I've always used computers for college and work but it's been the smart phone that has really got me hooked. I've been trying to scale back, although I realize without these inventions I would never be able to share my writing with the world. I suppose it's a double edged sword in many ways."
