Prepping myself for a beercation! Heading to Asheville for a few days to hike, sightsee, and of course spend time in the South Slope Brewery District. Any recommendations?? Also will keep you updated on any Non-Rev Nightmares.

On this episode of Micki's Non-Rev Nightmares, I woke up at 6am to fly back to Orlando from Atlantic City. The flight from AC was overbooked, as they usually are — though typically, I still get on.
Of course this time, when I had work the next day, I did not.
I give credit to the gate agents who, in a last ditch effort to get me on the plane, asked a deadheading pilot if he could so kindly sit in the cockpit so I could have his seat.•He said no. (And to that pilot: I will find you, and I will... Give you a stern talking to on courtesy.)
The evening flight to Orlando was also overbooked, so I rented a car and drove to Philly. There, I attempted to get on an American Airlines flight, but was 26th on the standby list of another overbooked flight. No go.
I ran two terminals over in hopes of getting on a Southwest flight that only had one seat open and I was the last of 3 on the standby list. Luckily, the other two didn't show up and a non-revving Southwest flight attendant was KIND ENOUGH (please take note, Spirit pilot) to jumpseat so I could have her seat.
Made it to work, fueled by La Colombe coffee.

Warped Tour Day 2! Second day was a marathon instead of a race as all of the bands I was excited to see played back-to-back. Ditched the earplugs, crowdsurfed for the first time in like 10 years, and sipped on $19 mixed drinks.

Warped Tour Day 1! Started going to Warped in 2006 and was not about to miss the anniversary tour in my hometown. Also the first concert I've ever worn earplugs… Despite getting rained out for a bit it was an amazing first day!
