about nothing

[Guest guest]

Hi, just sitting here, bored, waiting to be picked up to go to the airport -

second day in a row. I had a flight to Chicago, then to Kansas City yesterday. 

The first flight was delayed, and I couldn't connect to get to KS, so had to

come home.  today I have a flight to KS that is direct, no Chicago, great

flight, why didn't they give me that in the beginning? So, as no one was

available to pick me up yesterday, everyone else being in Kansas already for my

grandson's wedding, it cost me $50 to get home, plus two $5.00 tips for the guys

that wheel me in and out of the airport, plus $25.00 to check one pc. of

luggage.  It has cost me $90 and I'm still back home!!  not liking this one

bit.  I rented a car for yesterday, with hotwire.com, cheap, but non refundable,

and no one else could pick it up but me.  So that was another $75.00 down the

drain.  REALLY not liking this trip.  It would have been better to give the

grand son the usual $100.00

wedding gift, and thrown in another 200 and stayed home!!!!  But I'm sure there

are a million similar stories out there,   I'm still early, so here's another

airport story.  I stayed in Houston for 3 months to be in the sprycel trial.  I

had my own wheel chair, and when I got to Cleveland and my daughter picked me

up, I was so excited to be home, I left the wheel chair curbside, like it

belonged to the airport - never saw that one again~!   And then there was the

time way back in '66 when I flew from Los Angeles with my husband and two

others, the gal had never flown, and got so scared, she got drunk.  when the

pilot boarded the plane she asked if he was going to get this #$%^^ & off the

ground, and he called security and had us thrown off the plane!!!  Imagine

getting thrown off a plane, way back then???

Well, thanks group, if you took the time to read this, thanks for letting me

waste my time and yours, here comes my ride, (to go see the bride) LOL  Bobby
