We never travel during the holidays unless we absolutely have to. Even then we keep it to car travel, since the idea of fighting endless lines at the airport fighting with surly TSA employees is not a way to bring cheer to our lives. That all changes this year. We decided on a whim to travel on Christmas Day. Vacation is going to be at a premium for me at work for the first couple months, so if we wanted to travel, this was going to be our big chance. Who knew you could get cheap flights on Christmas? Who knew you could get seats at all? Rental cars, not so much, but hotels and flights are great. So now I'm trying to put together a list of things to get done between now and then and to find something to read on the plane. Any fluffy reading you recommend? Or even not so fluffy reading that isn't depressing? The last book I brought on a trip was The Road by Cormac McCarthy. That was without a doubt the most depressing business trip I ever took as a result.
