on how i'm going to get to gold status on american airlines this year.

so, i'm sitting here in texas talking to my amazing felicia about how i don't know what time zone it is and how i should potentially go eat dinner, and it occurred to me how insane my travel has been and will be this year. i've already stated in the office i'm making this into a fun game and trying to reach gold status on american - but i might even be able to go beyond that.

let's sketch out what i've done so far this year:

JANUARY
3 days in Dallas, dev trip - (12, 13, 14) American Air

FEBRUARY
3 days in Vegas, event - (6, 7, 8) Virgin (folly! not reaching my goal!)
3 days in Dallas, dev trip (23, 24, 25) American Air

projected trips include:
MARCH
3 days in Ohio (7, 8, 9)
4 days in Boston (10, 11, 12, 13)
3 days in Canada (14, 15, 16)

APRIL
3 days in Dallas
3 days in Canada

MAY
OH GOD I THINK I DO NOT TRAVEL!

JUNE
3 days in LA (barely a trip)

JULY
3 days in LA (barely a trip!)
3 days in Canada (MAYBE)
***VACATION - potentially Australia, likely Vegas***

AUGUST
4 days in Seattle

I will also take one, hopefully two trips to NYC for my family - and I will probably have to take one or two short trips for another project.

Thank goodness I love my job, eh?

You may need more than headphones for this...

I came SO CLOSE to getting gold status last year. This year there's just no chance. If they did it on a rolling 365-day or 12-month basis instead of by calendar year, I'd be set.
