*After getting little snow, I woke up to lots of snow, so I began to worry that my flight(s) would be delayed or cancelled. Some flights had been. And if my second flight was delayed, I'd be in trouble because my home airport has a curfew of sorts.
*The first plane was a puddle-jumper plane, so there was virtually no overhead space or anything. So pretty much the entire plane ended up having to gate check something. Then we get to Chicago, and there is a gap between the plane and the jetway (whereas normally the gap is very slim), so we're all waiting in the passageway for our bags. And it's freezing. We are all cold. There are snow flurries flying in. So, the first conveyor-belt thing doesn't work, so they get another one. Then the next one doesn't work. So they start brining up bags themselves a few at a time. Then a third belt-thing comes, which finally worked. But this whole process amounted to a good 20 minutes of my very cold in just a sweatshirt.
*In one of the Chicago airport Starbucks, there were Vancouver cups being sold. Unless there's a Vancouver in IL (first I've heard of it, but I'm a West Coaster so who knows. There's a Paris, TX...), Vancouver, Canada mugs are being sold in Chicago. Trick people into thinking you've been to Canada! Ooh, yeah. =D
*There was only one person in the exit rows on my second flight. That's right. 1 guy was to man 4 doors in case of emergency... fortunately we had a safe flight (why didn't anyone move there, you ask? Well, those seats are for the Economy Plus people, so us regular economy people couldn't move. And I had an aisle seat anyways with an empty middle seat, so even if I could have I was quite settled).
But I'm back home. Enjoying the CA sunshine and warmth after just barely escaping Vermont which is getting colder and colder. Well, Vermont & I won't be seeing each other until January 3rd, so...yea! =)
