turbulence

my flight home, from chicago, was pretty crazy.

my flight left at 8:20am, and so i left the house around 5:30am, in order to avoid chicago traffic - im glad i did.

also, thankfully it was only midway airport, and not o'hare.

anyways; it was a beautiful morning when i left the house - a gorgeous sunrise - and there i was, without my zoom lens to get a chicago-sunrise-skyline-shot. ugh! 

it was beautiful, though, and you'll just have to believe me.

i sat down at the terminal (after i bought a chicago cubs shirt, of course), and started editing some pictures; and then a super hot blonde chick walks up right next to me and sits right in front of me; dannnng! i hope you sit next to me! [alas, she was in aisle 10, while i was in 6..]

after being slightly distracted by the blonde bimbo, i turn to the left and notice it is super dark outside, and storming like crazy. that is never something im excited to see, especially when im about to board an airplane.

turns out it delays my flight fifty minutes. originally i was supposed to land in denver, to connect to san antonio, at 10am, but this caused me to land at 10:50am - 10 minutes before my connect flight at 11am! i landed on A42, and i had to be at A38 (that' what my boarding pass said, anyway), so i walk the fifty feet or so to A38, only to notice that this plane is bound for las vegas, and not san antonio. as much as i want to go to las vegas, not right now, not the time. turns out the plane was moved to A27, a ten minute walk from A38. man, with five minutes  to the plane was supposed to leave denver, i ran as fast as my legs could run all the way to A27, just in time, as the lady had to unlock the door for me. 

well, i landed in san antonio, obviously, and still hadn't eaten (i was planning on eating in denver). got home to find the truck DIRTY from bird crap; i hate bird crap, so i went to clean it., and i didn't end up eating till 4pm, arby's 5for5 deal.

oh well - i have the house to myself till thursday or friday.
