Flying High

Greetings from Baltimore(BWI to be exact). Here I sit people watching for the next 2 hours in anticipation of the final leg of my journey home and a well deserved(in my opinion anyway) day off, possibly more. This has been the most frustrating road trip I have had since starting this job almost 3 years ago, and believe me when I say I have been on more than my share. I managed to procure a total of 28 minutes of videotape over 11 days. Imagine, if you will, sitting there for an average of 9 hours a day for eleven days and seeing something, for only a total of 28 minutes over that span. The last 3 days saved me because I had access to someone’s unsecured wireless signal for most of all 3 days. It was rather weak and sometimes disappeared on me, but, it allowed me some browsing time and a few posts.

So far I have nothing interesting to report from the airport except a few fashion mistakes(if I notice, you know they are mistakes) and a couple of wailing babies. When all is said and done, this trip ended wonderfully, finding out Pink Floyd is reuniting, if only for one show, is enough to lift my spirits to a very high point. As the last few trips have ended in divorce, a death at my old apartment, a 12+ hour drive after an 8 and 9 hour day respectively and barely arriving at an airport in time to make it through security and onto a rough flight.

If I see anything interesting I will be sure to report back otherwise this will be it for this post.

Okay, so I didn't see anything really interesting, but my plane arrived about 20 minutes late at the gate in Baltimore. Then we had a stop in Louisville, which was not mentioned anywhere on the itenerary my boss sent me. While there, we were notified that we were not allowed to take off because severe weather in St. Louis had the airport closed. So my day got longer. Funny thing though, it didn't dampen my spirits at all, just wore me out a little more. Oh well I managed to get almost half my work week in, in one day. Now if I can wrangle a few extra days off this week, that would be awesome.
