You must be a wee bit tired! I hate waiting around for flights it's so boring at least you had company.

Yep, more than a wee bit tired! It was 2 am by the time I arrived at the hotel (on top of everything else, I've lost an hour due to time zone changes).

The company made all the difference in the world. I think I would have just gone home and called it quits otherwise...

You're in my city! Squee! Even if it is for business.

How long are you staying?

And sorry about the heinous air-traffic situation.

Hey! I figured surely someone from the flist must live in or near here. I'm in for a short two-day business trip - leaving Thursday night. My company's Corporate office is in Malvern, so I make my way here every so often. Thankfully, it's a direct flight and the delays aren't too common.

But at least Chicago is an interesting airport to be stuck in - New Orleans? Not. It truly is a dull little airport. And, luckily, it's such a short trip that I carried-on my luggage.

Wow that IS a coincidence. Life is like that though isn't it?

It really is...

And, considering the need for distraction with the horrible waiting, the timing was uncanny.

CRASH! You poor thing. THANK! GOD! you were able to console yourself with good food and booze.

(The six hour delay is muchsuckage...sorry.)

I was able to follow your story pretty well, but please no pop quizzes. How's Philly? Do you miss me terribly?????? Am I WAY more interesting than any of those people you met?????

Sorry bout not getting to this comment sooner. I woke up at noon.

Sigh.

The delay was bad, but at least the company was good. Those guys just kept the banter going the whole time.

Fortunately, it's a quick trip and I'll be home later tomorrow night. And of course you are way more interesting then those guys combined.

Have you recovered from the vacation yet?
