Did I Mention?

Did I mention that I was going to DC?

I was.  This morning.  I got to the airport around 9:30ish in the morning.  I was flying standby (cuz hubby works for an airline and we get non-revenue tickets and they don't guarantee a seat) and I knew it was iffy, but there were 11 open seats, so it seemed like decent odds.

Ha ha ha.....

I'm in Phoenix at my sister's house right now.  It's kinda cool cuz the kids all got to meet Caroline, so that was fun.  Hopefully I get to DC tomorrow.  I spent all day at the Portland airport.  Sure, I could have gone home, but then I'd have to do all the stupid security stuff again, so I just said screw it and stayed there.  Luckily Caroline did really well.  Tomorrow we wake up at 4am to try and get the 6am flight to Dulles.  Then we spend the rest of the day (if we don't make it) trying to get one one of the other 2 flights to Dulles of 7 flights to Baltimore.

If all else fails, I just need to get to Chicago.  I hope my sweet Beth will let me stay at her place if I get stuck there overnight!

Flying standby, truthfully, is worth the very, very, very reduced ticket price.  Seriously!  Next time I will just remember to pack PJ's and toiletries in my carry on.  Yeah, seriously - the ONE time I don't.... silly Nae!

Ok, I have to be awake in 3 hours.  I should go sleep now.
