RSS Feedthe time that i went to texas for christmas and ended up sick
i believe this marks the fourth or fifth year in a row that i’ve gotten sick over holiday break. it’s almost as though i’m too busy to be sick and then all of a sudden i have a few days off and the sickness takes hold. luckily it’s just a cold so it’s not too bad.
of course getting here was an ordeal all on its own … got an automated call from the airline on friday that said my 7pm flight to dallas had been cancelled. of course they rescheduled me for a new flight the next morning. sadly, the new flight had me connecting in new orleans. i was up at 4am on saturday so that i could get to the airport in a timely fashion only to arrive and have my flight delayed half an hour. we finally board 45 minutes after the scheduled departure only to have to sit in the queue to take off for another half an hour or so. of course by the time we get to new orleans i have missed my noon connection to dallas and have to try and get rebooked on the 3pm flight to dallas. that airport is all sorts of screwed up and the people were rude and made me go up to the main ticketing area to get rebooked. after going through security again and everything, i was finally on my way to dallas.
so i’ve been here since saturday and have had a nice, relaxing time. i have things i need to get done for work but i’ve just been wanting to relax. i’ll get to those later this weekend i suppose. so it’s back to chicago tomorrow afternoon.
that’s all i’ve got (for now).
