Back home from Cozumel honeymoon. @thinking_big & I had a great trip.
First Class to Cozumel. Great start to the honeymoon.
Just finished Seth Godin’s ‘Tribes’ while here at IAH. It’s a fantastic, important look at leadership for those looking to lead or be led.
Watching an airport wake up is quite fascinating.
Some subset of airport amenities should be open 24 hours. After all, there are people in [major] airports [like IAH] 24 hours.
The Continental Airlines President’s Club at SEA is pretty small.
Shutting down the downtown tunnel entrances for a politician preview us tragically stupid. @seatransitblog
My next blog post will be about ridiculous, useless, poorly thought out, poorly executed political theater.

Packing.
Today’s slept on @SLUMVILLAGE313 track: “Things we do” off Detroit Deli
Thanks & we can’t wait to see our pics! RT @jessjohnston @allthingsadored we had a blast shooting your wedding!
I just unfollowed about 100 people. Not b/c they’re uninteresting, but b/c I want to miss fewer interesting tweets.
How much work can I realistically expect to get done in the 2.5 days I’m back in the office beore my honeymoon?

There is an especially hot place in Hell for shady contractors that take advantage of widows.
New blog post: Our very own SuperSpade getting married… http://bit.ly/dKfcE
Just picked up & dropped off @bqw here in Charleston.
Hamby’s Catering in Charleston is handling the food. I think we found them on the only date they weren’t booked to serve food in heaven.
SC marriage license criteria: $, ID if under 27, parent if under 18, marry opp sex. No proof of divorce/that you’re not cousins needed.
The haircut I got today is the best I’ve had since Barack became President. Big ups to Family Barber Shop is Charleston, SC.

Gassing up in Lexington, KY. We’re making great time.
I bet gas station vending machine condoms have a spectacularly high failure rate. http://twitpic.com/9kcyd
It feels kind of chivalrous that I’m driving my fiancée to Charleston to marry her.
Beatiful full moon over Detroit tonight. http://twitpic.com/9gxlo

Most interesting part of flying on July 3: seeing fireworks displays from above.
