Flying
I'm sitting in the new Indianapolis airport on my way to Maryland for the weekend. The airport was kind enough to provide me with free wireless Internet access, which I thought was very nice.
While I love the "get you there faster than driving" aspect of flying, pretty much every other aspect of it makes me a nervous wreck. I'm as nervous about getting checked in, getting a boarding pass, and finding my gate as I am about possible crashes. In fact, I might be a little more nervous about all that. I don't know what that says about me. Probably nothing good.

Groundhog Day
Question: If you had to relive the same day over and over again until you really, truly fell in love with someone, who would you choose?
You're familiar with the movie, I'm going to assume.
A quote from this article (emphasis mine):

You're familiar with the movie, I'm going to assume.
A quote from this article (emphasis mine):
The turning point comes when he explains his predicament to Rita while they’re in the diner, where he can tell her the names and backgrounds of everyone who lives there. They get on much better than before, and Phil decides to become the man she’ll fall in love with, irrespective of how many Groundhog Days it takes. This is the true payback part of the movie, where we see Murray doing lots of good things for people, knowing when they’ll hurt themselves or mishaps will happen. He also decides to better himself, learning foreign languages, reading extensively and even learning to play the piano. This will eventually lead to Rita falling in love with him, which breaks the spell and ends the loop.
