Another highlight of the job; when people hook up on the plane. No, I do not mean physically hook up. I mean two strangers that hit it off. I LOVE when that happens. Really, it is a great way to meet people. Once I tried (unsuccessfully) to hook a guy that I sat next to up with a friend.

I might hate hotels, but I LOVE celebrities. I do not know why, but when there is one on the plane I get sooo excited! Some are nice, some are not nice, almost all are tiny. The only big ones are the athletes. The nicest celeb I have ever had onboard, was Shelly Long, she was soo nice and real. My favorite was probably Jeff Probst, and that is because I am a die hard Survivor fan. The most beautiful, was Jessica Biel. She looked exactly like she does on TV. As a matter of fact, I did not know how I knew her at first and asked her if she went to AHS.... lame, I know... Although Kieth Urban was also very good looking. I never thought so before I saw him. He was also very nice.
The least attractive, and I mean this in the nicest way, was Juliette Lewis. She was nice, though, and probably only unattractive b/c she did not try to look attractive. She was slightly unusual and in coach.
The most risque I have seen was Quincy Jones, who was making out with a young girl. Probably early 20s....
The worst is a tie. Michael Johnson (gold shoe, gold medal Olympic runner) or Tony Dorsette. These two were both so rude and so not heroic. A little boy tried to get the olympians autograph and he said no. Rudely....
Sometimes I do not know who they are. I had some sports guy, Bob Costas, on one time and we were talking and he was telling me how he has two houses.... I start telling him how I had two houses and blah blah... (I was based in STL, so I had a crashpad.... hardly the same thing)... I was kinda embarrassed when I found out who he was... He was really short... also VERY nice...
Like I said, they are almost always tiny people....

I hate staying in hotels. Why? because someone random, that was not me slept in the bed the night before. They showered in the shower, just one day before. They left their stray hair somewhere in that room. gross. Here are a list of my faves and least favorites.

Crown Plaza. I hate these. The only thing I hate more are Holiday Inns. I hold a special dislike for the CP for a personal reason, but as a whole I am not a fan.

Westin. LOVE it. The Heavenly Bed, is just that HEAVENLY. And, they have bath and body works lotion. score!!

Hilton and Marriott and Sheraton are usually good, clean, and comfortable.

I love the Hilton Garden Inn. Do you know why? because they have microwaves. And fridges. It certainly is the little things.
