Have you ever been told that you had to fly someplace for work about 10 hours before you were scheduled to go?  Well that has now happened to me twice!  The company I work for is very small and they tend to do this more often then not.  It is very frustrating and I am working on changing it.

Rant over…..Now onto the most recent trip.  Harrisburg, PA:

The day started off ok, my dad took me to the airport so I got to spend the morning with him talking about his trip with my mom to Thailand.  I get to the airport and board the plane no problems.  Well turns out, there was a huge delay in Chicago so we sat on the tarmac for about an hour.  It really sucked because there was no where for us to go, we just had to sit there in the plane.  On the upside (Hubie Brown reference) I sat next to and chatted with a very nice lady who’s husband passed away in a mountain biking accident in the Santa Cruz hills.  VERY nice lady, we chatted about her family and how she is a triathlon-er.  Also we had the 12 year old Jr. Sharks on our plane which was neat because there were about 5 MILFs in the group, yummy!

I am currently on the plane from Chicago to Harrisburg, there are a total of about twenty people on the plane so I have my own row.  Although the plane is one of those small Untied Express planes so by row I mean two seats.  Whatever still nice, feels like I’m on my own charter.  Well I am going to sign off before my battery dies but one last thing, O’Hare’s McDonalds had both the McRib AND a Snickers McFlurry, good times!
