Did so much nothing yesterday but man was it good. Left here at 2:30 as planned, got to the airport at 3:34. Unfortunately the ticket counter doesn't open until 4 but as both B and I agree, better to be early than late. At the same time, this made for a very long and frustrating day for B. She had a horrible travel day and she doesn't handle it well because unlike me who has more options available, she ended up getting kind of screwed all day.
I dropped her off and it seemed things were okay. I went and met friends to drop off the house keys and have some food. Left them and was back home around 5:30. I decided to take a little nap. At 6:15 my phone rings - B's flight is being deplaned due to a defective light. She is freaking out telling me to change her second flight. I am not awake and not comprehending what is happening. This of course makes her more upset. I tell her there is nothing I can do because the ticket is in her name and she has to do it once she gets off the plane. By now I am awake and understanding. This doesn't make her happy at all and she basically hangs up on me. I hear from her about an hour later telling me she has a new 8:15am flight to Dallas but then a five hour layover until MI. See, there's the difference between me and her. I would have pushed for an earlier flight AND I would have been hopping standby on every flight I could. If she tried that they would charge her. She ends up getting to DFW and then has to sit for not just five, but seven hours due to a delay. When that first flight of the day is off, every flight thereafter gets screwed. Needless to say, not happy on her end.
On mine, I managed to fall back to sleep until 7:30. A whopping two hours of sleep. Yay me. Did my morning stuff, then steeled in to catch up on Rookie Blue. While I was watching I got a nice email from the hotel letting me pre-check and select the room I wanted. Nice. When I get there today I will already know where I am going. I ended up watching 9 episodes yesterday. Damn. But I also packed, cleaned the fridge, dealt with the cat having an accident, vacuumed, did all the dishes, organized files, and took out garbage. While watching 9 episodes. Oh something really cool happened yesterday. I got a Sunday delivery from Amazon Fulfillment Services. Add to that list, wrap presents. Around 9 I came in here, played a little Diablo. Mostly because it wasn't until almost 12:30 EST that I finally heard from B. She didn't get in until 11:30, needed to arrange transportation, and finally had gotten somewhere. She was going to chit chat for a while then bed. I went to bed around 10:30 myself.
Today I am off to the client. Leaving here around 10:30 because I want to do a little Christmas shopping at the mall. It's about a 90 minute drive to the client with no traffic so this way I will get there around noon. Do a little shopping, head to the hotel, settle in for the night. Be back home Thursday.
