Bummed

I brought this upon myself you know. I was actually sitting on the plane. Buckled in even. They needed a volunteer to get off the plane to take a later flight. A free round trip ticket was used to sweeten the deal. My sister is preggars and I need that extra ticket to get home during “that time”. So I volunteered. They managed to get me on a flight to Columbus Ohio, then on to St. Louis. All would have been well if Columbus wasn’t shut down because of the snow. So I spend at least an hour in another line to find out what they could do. I got the LAST ticket out to St. Louis before the holiday. I leave tomorrow at 6 pm. I was waitlisted for another flight tonight, but when it got pushed back 2 hours, I just couldn’t handle it. I needed rest, food, and water. (I could have bought food and water, but the lines were ridiculus and I was too tired to mess with it. I did have McD’s, but it was grody.) I spent 10.5 hours at the airport. Tomorrow, my arse is getting on the plane and even if they try to bump me I will pull out pathetic kitty and tell them the whole story and they can kiss my butt. So I am home for tonight and have taken a 4 hour nap and plan on going back to bed shortly. Tomorrow, I’m going to the mall to get my jeans, to J&N’s to pick up some groceries, and then to the airport. Come “HELL OR HIGH WATER”  I will be home tomorrow!

Aren’t airports fun? I one time spent 12 hours in an airport trying to fly from Memphis to Atlanta… which is only a 6 hour drive. Merry Christmas!! *eats a canister of frosting*
