Never Self Incriminate

"Unbelievable!" Is the first text I receive this morning from none other than Scott Marsh. This exclamation was of course in response to my text "my carry on was too big, I had to check it :(" As if the texting weren't enough I receive a call two minutes later, I answer "are you calling to make fun of me?" Scotter "Yes! Are you kidding me Haley?" I explain my logic: a) I'm going to be doing business woman things for two days then fabulous New York City things for two days so I'm obviously requiring a lot of artillery b) its fall so naturally my clothes are bigger and heavier than they are in the summer months and c) my layover's in Detroit so I'm thinking its going to be a small plane, a "puddle jumper" as Scotter says. Therefore, before I board, I go up to the Delta associates and say "my carry on is a liiiittle large, can you just throw it underneath the plane?" Delta woman smiles with a smug look on her face and says, "oh ya, much too big, aaaannnd we are going to have to charge you." Lesson of the day: never self incriminate (compliments of my father)

The best part about the story was that my plane turns out to be anything but a puddle jumper, with sufficient room for my over sized carry on. And that's my story of a $25 fine for self incrimination.
