“Hey, daughter, how’d you like to fly to Wisconsin for the weekend to visit your boyfriend?”
Such a simple plan, right? It’s only a couple of hours away. A bit longer since Boston isn’t quite a hub and Madison is distinctly second-tier so we’ll have to deal with a layover somewhere. And that’s how I’m writing this from a hotel in New Jersey on the first night we were supposed to be in Wisconsin. For those not overly familiar with US geography, here’s a map.
Tumblr media
So, how did we get here. Apparently there was something wrong with one of the air pressure units. And something else wrong with some paperwork. So we were late leaving the gate, then we came back to a different gate, then we left again, then we came back to a gods-damned third gate, finally getting into the air approximately three hours later than we were supposed to. For a one-hour flight. We blew our first connection, then the second one that they’d automatically rescheduled me for, then ... oh, here’s the kicker.
The customer service line at Newark airport was so long and so slow that we blew through the third and last connection of the night while in line.
To United’s credit, they did try to “make it good” by paying for us to stay tonight in a hotel, plus a Lyft ride there (but not back in the morning). And that brings me to the final bit of fun. Where’s the hotel?
Tumblr media
They claim that everything closer was booked up. I suspect that everything closer was more expensive (even with the Lyft fare). But hey, at least it’s not coming out of my pocket. Also, “not fucking Newark” is something usually said to condemn Newark itself - not the alternative. When Newark would have been an improvement, it’s time to reevaluate life choices.
Current schedule gets us to Madison only 18 hours late ... for what was supposed to be a 48-hour visit. Oh, and that’s where we reunite with our luggage, which we currently do not have for the night. Fun. So, two thoughts keep running through my head.
I’m glad we didn’t bring my wife on this trip. She would have gone Full Metal Karen by now, for sure, and it wouldn’t have helped.
I’m even gladder that we didn’t send dear daughter on her own. This is expert mode even for me. She probably would have melted and never wanted to travel again.
So, this was A Day for sure. I hope yours is better.

Peach's definition of a surprise may be a little excessive, but she's got the spirit! 🤭💖
One thing I haven't often talked about but which makes this pairing absolutely delightful to me is how the sheer difference in their social status would manifest in the "small" attentions they show one another. Nothing would ever be deemed too grand or too extravagant for the Princess, especially in the early stages of her friendship with Mario, and learning to apply a moderate level of zeal to her endeavors when trying to express her affection would still be an ongoing process even much later! 😅
(Inspired by this ask sent to me by @zootopiathingz. :3)

Tumblr media
SOUTHERNER??? southerner confirmed????
tea drinker and dim sum enjoyer.........
wushou -> 舞兽 -> literally translated as "beast dancing" -> it's just lion dance but with a knockoff lion ig
TIL! seems that he's based off the red/black lion known as guan gong / kwan kung / 关公!
irl, they look like this (which also explains where his black/red color scheme comes from)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
this specific lion is one of 3, the other two are 2 other historical figures from romance of the 3 kingdoms (liu bei and zhang fei. this one comes from guan yu)
his constellation name is Leo Expergiscens which means awakening lion. it's 醒狮 in chinese, which is another name for lion dance used in canton/guangdong !!!
NO INCOME FROM LION DANCING T_T it's his side hustle.....
your honor he's perfect please release him alr
