You should get (Rand to buy you some) Bose noise-cancelling headphones. Seriously – those things are awesome. They help you get proper rest on the flight. I was way less jet-lagged on the way home last time.

On the other hand, don’t do that because you might become less funny.

And by the way, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with being “provocative”. It makes things all the more interesting, and if you didn’t take the risk and write that blog entry then you wouldn’t have got all those well-meaning responses and may well still be stewing. Let it all out, that’s what I say!

My husband says I have ADD (actually, he calls it “shiny object syndrome”), my mom says I’m just too overworked (thanks, mom), my friends write it off to being blonde (truthfully I did seem to have it together more when I was a redhead – I may have to give that another go)…..but I really believe the cause is a mind that is too active to be contained in just your most lucid waking hours. Which I also believe is a sign of superior intelligence.

After all, I read somewhere a long time ago that Albert Einstein left the cheese in a drawer and the remote in the fridge. Or something very close to that.

I’ve always had a hard time sleeping in planes…so I would always be terribly jet-lagged and groggy and cranky and emotional and..anyway I found out a cure to this problem accidentally when my friends decided one night that staying up drinking until five a.m. was a great way for me to be on time for a flight to China…at this point being up over 24hrs… Well let’s just say I slept on that flight! Still use this method on long flights, plus it’s a great excuse for a party

Cheers!

Also, thank you for making “yellow” a verb.
