Car picked me up at 4:15, got to the airport around 4:50, got to my gate at 5:30. Realized I had 90 minutes and found a club to relax in. There's no Admiral's club at PDX but there is an Alaska club which has a partnership with AA. That works. Plus they have a pancake machine. I was first on the upgrade list and managed to get it at the very last second. It was only a 2 hour flight, but 2 hours in front is better than 20 minutes in coach any day.
Got to the airport at 9:20 and then had a 30 minute adventure trying to find where rental cars are located. I need to remember this for Saturday when I bring the car back - the tram takes forever. Allow enough time. Drove down to meet the kid for lunch. She is doing well. She is frustrated with her living situation and I wish I could help her.
I wish a lot of things. I wish I hadn't fucked up so many times in the past and I wasn't in the position I am in today. Every time I look at her I see all the things I could have done better to make her life better. I raised her well luckily but I fucked up as a human being so often in the past I can't give her the things she needs now.
We had a nice lunch and I got to the hotel around 1:30. My room was ready so I unpacked and took a nap. Woke up, ironed, watched some Netflix then went next door to El Pollo Loco for dinner. The place was fucking crowded. I have never seen a fast food place that busy. Insanity.
Ate, watched more Netflix, went to bed.
Today I don't have to be onsite until 10am which might as well be forever for me. What the hell am I going to do for the next 4.5 hours??
