without me.
hypothetically, if one of us is obliged to travel someplace fabulous on business, the other should be able to tag along without breaking the bank.
the hotel, after all, is paid for. as is one airfare.
business dinners dramatically reduce the cost of meals, so all that's left to cover is round-trip airfare for one.
well, that and the cost of leaving the children behind.
they're too young to stay home alone, and too high-maintenance to pawn off on neighbors. flying the grandparents in for a few days adds significantly to the bottom line. and we haven't yet mentioned the current cost of flights to hawaii, which is enough to make your ears bleed.
bla bla bla. i'm not going.
instead, i'm considering this great alternative, which is totally within the budget.
so, make it one ticket to paradise, please, and three tickets to tornado alley...

We can relate to the general suckiness of not having family in town to help out in these situations. Maybe many mai tais would be good right about now?
mai tais are sweet and tropical and intoxicating, just like hawaii. many mai tais oughta do the trick.
