More Flight pain

Cincinnati Airport: 12:46 pm

The madness is almost coming to an end. Strangely detached. A little sad. Should have tipped the cab driver more.

Wondering about all the other people traveling to Austin. From Cincinnati? Why? What are the odds? The only explanation is that there are way too many people in the world right now.

My luggage wasn’t overweight. Or was the check-in guy just nice/tired/frustrated?

Stomach feels empty. Cookies in bag not tempting at all. All sorts of chemicals churning around in bloodstream. Mind in a blitz.

Airport staff is requesting passengers to Laguardia to volunteer to give up their seats – for a compensation of $400. Glad I don’t have that chance. It would be tempting, but I’d have to pass it up.

Boarding should have started at 12:40 pm. It is currently 12:54 pm.

Great. Estimated departure time is now 1:30 pm. More time to write my work report.

All right cookies – you win.

210 calories later…

Hurray – boarding begins.

I couldn't even stay up for take-off. Damn you Vicodin.
