busy week

[cellio]

Monday: Choir practice.

Tuesday: Domestic junk. (Bills still aren't paid.)

Wednesday: Ralph's D&D game. Much fun was had.

Tonight: Board meeting. Pack for trip. Try to figure out what's an appropriate, plane-enabled small gift to give to the nice person who's picking me up at the airport in Chattanooga. Maybe I should buy chocolate at lunch time.

Tomorrow morning: fly to Galacticon. Filk guests of honor -- woo hoo! I hope the airline folks don't want to confiscate my Shabbat candles and matches. (I'm trying to do this with carry-on only.) Probably no net access until Sunday night.

I believe that the candles will not present a problem and I'm fairly certain that matches don't either. The candles should survive and if the matches don't, the hotel will have them.

hope this helps! sounds like you're busy, busy, busy!

Good point about the hotel having matches. Especially in the south, I'm told. :-)

I'm not worried about the candles surviving; I'm taking tea lights. (And I always save stumps of havdalah candles for trips.) I haven't flown since the new regs kicked in, and for all I know there could be issues with "combustibles" or the like, even if it sounds silly to you and me. :-)

Nope, I travelled with candles to Florida...no problem at all. I got matches from the hotel.

But on the point of matches....smokers bring lighters and matches onto the plane still, so I would imagine there's no problem for you.
