Y6 D349

I am home! Been away so long I hardly know the place, gee it's good to be back home.

Some day will come when no one recognizes that lyric. Oh wait.

Regardless, I am home. Pretty uneventful trip home thanks to upgrades on both flights and it being early flights. Left for the airport around 2:30 as I had to stop for gas. Oh my. This particular gas station at 3am is um, interesting? You can tell it is the 'drunk stop' station. Everyone getting smokes or energy drinks dressed in what can only be described as club clothes. And then there's me. Trying to get gas to go to the airport. I just want to go home people. Out of my way.

Got to the terminal around 3:15 and waited. Not too bad. I got into security line around 3:40, was through by 4:10. Got to my gate and sat off to the side watching Wonderfalls. Cute show. Boarded and had a nice cozy window seat with no one next to me. I did witness a dick move and it happened too fast for me to say something. This big fat old guy who looked like the self entitled kind of guy as he was walking through to coach snagged the blanket off the seat next to me. Dick. You can just ask for one you know. They would have brought it to you. I watched some more TV on the flight as it was a whole 40 minutes long.

Got to DFW around 6 and had 2.5 hours to kill. Spent about 1.5 of them in the club. I have already spent enough time in the Admiral's Club that if I had purchased day passes, I am close to breaking even. 2 more visits to go. Headed to my gate, boarded, and we were off.

Had a nice quiche, a small nap, and while a bumpy flight, no other problems. There had been a dog in the waiting area but either it got on another flight or it was far enough back I didn't hear it. It was barking up a storm in the waiting area.

Landed about 11 and texted B. She had been having her own adventure. The main bridge we use is closed this weekend for repairs. While I was flying she was stressing trying to get the GPS to recognize where she was and that the bridge was closed. She had just arrived when I landed and needed to pee. But she parked in the wrong terminal parking and was looking for me 30 gates too far away.

We finally met up and then had to deal with the bridge closure issue on the ride home. 2 hours later we got home around 2. Unpacked, ate some lunch, took a nap. Woke up and made dinner. We were smart enough to pick something up when we were out earlier.  Alas, B needed some other stuff and back to the store we went. When we got back I started catching up on email. No small task. Took a a while but I got through it. Relaxed a while with B, then started adding new shows from two weeks on the road. 140 shows later. Went to bed around 1:30. Haven't been up that long in a while on a non-show night.

Today I am doing nothing and loving every minute of it.
