Booking flights and burning llamas
Feb. 27th, 2009 10:51 pmRitual cleansing, go to EasyJet site, meditate on the fragile nature of human existence, choose flights, chant prayer, uncheck tons of options, shake bone rattle, create account, sacrifice rubber goat, create password, sacrifice rubber chicken, fill in details, burn rare scented ungulates*, fill in cardholder's details, smear blood on forehead, verify card, do a little dance**, verify travel documents, go ooh-wa-wa-oogha, and press 'Book flight'. Done.
* Shut up. I was really tired at the time and I misread the instructions. And the llama had it coming anyway.
** I much preferred either step two or three, actually, but unfortunately there was no one there to assist me with that, and the llama was pretty pissed off by then, so I didn't think it would respond positively to being propositioned. Also, it was on fire. And a llama.
And the result of all that song and dance (and flaming llama) is me flying to .nl on the 26th of April and flying back on the 29th. Yay!
