Actually I see it leaving me behind as I stand at the check-in counter looking stuck on stupid! So to break it down...I missed my flight! Some have said that I subconsciously did it because I am unsure about my living arrangements and work itself. I really can not honestly say that my subconscious did not play a part, but I was trying to make that flight. I just tried to do to much in a short amount of time. So I have been promising my nieces that I would take them to Muir Woods which is known for its redwoods. I figured that on my last day instead of sitting in the house counting down the hours until my flight, I would head out to a peaceful environment and enjoy nature with my three sweeties and Action, their cat. Everything went pretty well, except for the ominous "no pets" sign. So the nieces got anxious, while the rebellious auntie refused to leave the cat in car. So Action, the cat, became the first pet in the history (a little exaggeration on my part) of Muir Woods to check out the redwood forest. On the way back home we ran into (unknown to me) typical San Fransico traffic. When we finally made it back to the house I was running late and still had about 30 minutes of errands to run. So I ran them. I arrived at the check-in counter with a little less than 30 minutes to spare before my flight took off.
So my flight has been rescheduled for tomorrow at the same time. At the counter Ms. Tiff asked me if it was worth it missing my flight to take the kids to Muir Woods. I replied "yes." That is until the clerk informed me that the penalty for missing the flight is $200, so I promptly changed my answer to "no." I did love the reception I received when I made it back home. I was hugged, kissed and treated (and I participated) to a cellphone ringtone dance contest by my nieces.
The stark reality is that I can not afford to lose/give away $200!!!!! I was already strapped for cash and now this trip seems in dire straits. What the Fuck!!!!!
Things I accomplished today...
1. Took the nieces out tree-hugging
2. Mailed out my text messaging device to a friend that will be able to use it while I am gone. So don't text me anymore or a chick in Seattle will respond rudely.
3. Received my tri-band cellphone and will try and figure out what the hell to do with it.
4. Managed to delete all emails in my inbox, which includes The Critter's flight information. Double Frickin Ughhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
5. Oh and the big one I missed my flight.
What I have to do tomorrow...
Get to the airport hella early and catch a flight.
Oh if you are interested in donating to the "I don't want to be Broke and on the London Streets" fund. Let me know...
