Excerpt from a Conversation
Sep. 13th, 2006 09:13 amAnd now, another entry in the category of "ahhh...now things about
gnomi make much more sense":
A snippet of conversation with my mother:
Me: So, I'm looking at flights to Norfolk, VA.
Ima: You should look into Southwest, see if their prices are good.
Me: Yeah, but they only fly out of [TF] Green and... uh... Purple*.
Ima (without a beat): Right. You know, they're starting a shuttle to Purple, so it's easier to get to.
*Purple, in this case, is Manchester, NH, which is no closer distance-wise to my parents than Logan but is closer to them in terms of actual travel time. Since
beckyfeld is within commuter-train distance of BWI, Ima frequently goes Southwest from Manchester to BWI.
