Thanks as always to The Other McCain for the Rule Five links!  Be sure to check out the comprehensive totty compendium at the link.

Moving right along:  The Traveling Life has some drawbacks.  Among those are days like yesterday, when I traveled from Knoxville, TN to Boston, MA, via Washington-Dulles.  Traveling this time of year is always problematic where weather is concerned, and yesterday was no exception; weather delayed my first flight’s landing by a half-hour.  That, combined with the necessity of schlepping all the way across the airport, conspired to make me miss my Boston flight by mere moments; fortunately United Airlines, in a display of efficiency, automatically rebooked me.

On a 10:00PM flight, arriving in Boston near midnight.  Combine that with finding my checked bag, hailing an Uber ride to Waltham, and I did not lay my head on a hotel pillow until close to 1AM this morning.

Good times.

So, True Believers, I will ask your forgiveness for the lack of deep thoughts and news of the day today.  As a palliative, please enjoy this sample of toothsome totty from the archives.
