Rebel Prince

So I’ve been listening to Jason Mraz (Waiting for My Rocket To Come) a lot lately. My usual mode of music exposure these days is to put a CD in my discman and listen to it over and over again, during my commute and/or at work, until I’m completely infused with it (read: tired of it), and only then do I change CDs. Lather, rinse, repeat. Earlier this evening on the Metro, I had one song on repeat and I thought, this song would totally make me cry if I were in the right mood—or wrong mood, depending on how you look at it. It’s a heart-breaker: “Absolutely Zero.”

Who am I to say this situation isn’t great?
It’s our time to make the most of it
How could we ever know that this would happen to me,
   not that easy, no
All along the fault is up for grabs and there you have it
Well it’s for sale go make your offer,
I’ll sell it for no less than what I bought it for
Pay no more than absolutely zero.

I’m planning to visit my parents at the end of April. I’ve been looking at fares online, which you know I love to do—I could spend hours playing travel agent—and the cheapest fare I found is on JetBlue, which runs two nonstop flights daily between Washington (Dulles) and Oakland. National and San Francisco are my preferred airports for the sake of convenience—I live minutes from National, and my parents live minutes from SFO—but I’m used to schlepping for cheaper fares. And it might be worth the supposedly better JetBlue experience. I’ve heard mostly good things about them and am kind of curious. Anyone have any JetBlue experiences to share?
