Jul 2018

one of the most thrilling experiences of my life. On a Virgin flight from SFO to DCA in 2014, Leader Pelosi boarded and sat in the middle seat next to me. She had brought a lot of work with her, as had I, so I thought it best to keep my cool and only gush briefly after we landed - though I was beside myself with excitement. I texted husband with the news and he's like "Get a selfie" and I'm like "No way". Anyway, Leader Pelosi had her seatback TV on, and kept alternating between CNN, MSNBC, and Bloomberg while she read through documents making notes. Then came the moment that all three of her alternates had commercials running. She had her finger poised over Fox, and she noticeably hesitated before finally pressing it. It was everything I could do to keep from laughing, nudging her, and saying "I know, right?"
