because i know you love it...
it's "fun with cade in airports: 3 nights in 3 cities" edition
upon completion of booking my flight for a week of work in lovely "you can NEVER really get enough of it" louisville, kentucky, i felt a little uneasy about its proximity to my return flight from colorado. but, what could be the harm, right?
my itineraries as they were booked:
sunday, august 07 2005:
-depart colorado springs 3:12 pm
-change planes in dallas/ft worth, depart for boston 6:30 pm
-arrive boston logan 11:19 pm
-home by midnight
monday, august 08 2005:
-depart boston logan 1:20 pm
-change planes in pittsburgh, depart for louisville 4:05 pm
-arrive louisville 6:32 pm
-watch "miss teen usa" 9 pm (if you don't know me OR my affiliation with the miss universe pageant system, then by all means, cast stones, just be prepared for retaliation)
simple right?
how it has played out so far:
sunday, august 07 2005:
-board plane, colorado springs 3:12 pm
-depart colorado springs 5:55 pm
-arrive dallas/ft worth 6:30 pm (local time, of course)
-board plane, dallas 8:05 pm
-depart dallas ft worth 9:10 pm
monday, august 08 2005:
-arrive boston logan 1:45 am
-baggage claimed and home by 2:45 am
-arrive boston logan's economy lot, park in same space vacated 8 hours earlier 10:00 am
-flight 3577 to pittsburgh, cancelled. no explanation offered
-board plane, boston logan 1:00 pm
-depart for new york/laguardia 2:30pm
-flight 3132 to louisville, departs new york/lga 2:30pm
-arrive new york/lga 3:30 pm
-rebook (standby) flight 3262 to louisville leaving 6:05 pm
-flight 3262 to louisville cancelled. no explanation offered
-rebook (standby) flight 3285 to louisville leaving 9:45 pm
-??????
-sit down and document yet another 24 hours of fun in the glamorous life of cade 4:22 pm. contemplate the possibility of "4 nights in 4 cities"
updates to follow, i'm sure.
and if anyone wants to tape "miss teen usa" for me (NBC 9et/8ct,) you would be my hero.
cheers.

by the way,
an angry lady next to me on her cell phone:
"i don't know? i mean, peter jennings died. the shuttle can't land. and i'm stuck in new york. something is definitely wrong in the universe."
a bit dramatic, but whatever.
great. that means a lot.
yep. i'm stuck in new york. off to find a "ray's" and see if i can find a cheap show ticket. oh, and a place to sleep.
unbunny, would a running diary of miss teen usa suffice?
i have no way to tape it right now, but suzie castillo & galen gering just came out to host, and all the girls are wearing pink bikini tops and white bottoms (skirts, miniskirts, pants, miniminiskirts, cutoffs & capris). In addition, Aaron Carter & Kimberley Locke have been mentioned no less than five times in nine minutes.
thanks joolz.
the productions are so terrible anymore that i didn't really mind not seeing it...other than the fact that miss ohio won it (one of the states i worked last year.) so, that's cool.
ps. i'm in louisville now.
I would have taped it for you last night except for the fact that I have a feeling our upstairs neighbors decided to try to tap in to our box for some free cable and ended up leaving us sin-internet and staring at a half-static one-station television where we aren't quite sure why the one semi-image that appears is an apparent video game pause screen (yet again made confusing by the fact that we have no video game system hooked up to the tv and the fact that all cables seem to be correctly connected all the way to the cellar cable box. It's actually kinda growing on me though. I may not ask them to upgrade on friday after all.
wow cade this stuff never happens to you...
maybe you should just stop flying...
i mean... the fact that you still fly after every time being hosed by the airline industry is a testiment to... ... something...
a tryumph of hope over experience
Just wanted to let you know that I'm getting a kick out of your saga!
Ky
fletch- it's still better than walking. besides, it's my job.
ky- awesome to know you're out there. how's #2 coming along? i need to call your husband.
...and, no. that wasn't a 'poop' joke. so, stop thinking it everyone. shame on you all.
My #2 is coming along just fine. Thanks for asking...I didn't know you cared.
Oh, our second child is doing great too! It is another girl if you didn't already know. She will probably be Eliana Joy and we will call her Ellie.
You should call my husband...I know that he would love to talk to you about his work. He is very busy with it right now, but he is loving it and that is a beautiful thing!
you ever get the feeling that people are talking about you?
Cade - call me next time you're stuck in an airport...which should be soon. We'll talk about old pictures and reminisce about life at "The Project"
peace,
grom
