Home from travels
Apr. 26th, 2017 02:08 amHome from travelling. Actually, I got in somewhere around 1 pm yesterday and proceeded to pass out for many hours. Woke up at 1 am and (much to my surprise) have been awake ever since. Husband has been snuggled. Boyfriend has been talked to on Skype. He looks very sad, poor thing, but it remains against the laws of physics for me to be in two places at once. Hoping we can have him visit in late June/early July for my birthday.
Super weirdly, I have been physically energetic enough to have emptied the laundry rack, folded the dry laundry, sorted all of the dirty laundry in my suitcase, put on a load of laundry, emptied the clean stuff out of the dishwasher and refilled it. I hope that I will not pay for this tomorrow, though I have A Theory. A theory which involves, of all things, vegan bacon and my ability to get it.
(Gods, I knew that Yves Veggie Bacon wasn't very fatty, but I didn't realise that 3 rashers had only 0.5 g of fat between the lot of them, along with 14 g of protein. Short of actually, y'know, BAKING my own tofu, I am unsure where to get tasty textured fake meat products which are low fat and high protein. Nasty-tasting, weird textured but low fat, I can do. Nice-tasting, well-textured and full of fat, I can do).
Continue to be Unimpressed with Aer Lingus. Will relate the full story later when spoons exist.

Date: 2017-04-27 11:32 pm (UTC)To be honest, if I was flying to and from Ireland, I would probably consider Aer Lingus again simply because they offer more flights than anyone else. I might even consider them to fly to the US because it turns out that it is possible to go through US Customs and Immigration in Dublin Airport. (It's the only airport in Europe which offers this service.) Therefore, when you arrive in the US it is as though you were arriving on a domestic flight, and you don't need to bother with passport control. That might well save some time, and I'm curious to sit down and do all the calculations.
But I definitely wouldn't fly back with Aer Lingus, or book them through a third-party travel agent. Or indeed, book any airline through a third-party travel agent.
