delayed
i've decided to write in all lowercase for this post...i think it'll look more dramatic.
i've been delayed at KCI (dangit, caps!) for about...2.5 hours now. i've moved my sitting location from cafe, isolated chair-area, baggage claim carpeted floor and now find myself residing in chair against the wall in between family---women's restrooms.
I read for a while:
and alas find myself a "displaced traveler."
i'm pretty sure i can guess the other souls on board my flight as there are quite a bunch of us migrating to-and-fro in this little stretch of terminal. i remember my parents always said, "smokers love KCI, they can get right off the plane and get outside fast for a smoke." i haven't seen anyone smoking outside.
can't do lowercase any longer...goes against my education! Ahh, phew...ran into a Jersey-native. I knew he was a native because I could see Mike Muha all over him. He was a bit abrasive with strangers (i.e. Continental front-desk employees), a bit east-coasterly, a bit 'overly-friendly-talkative-complainy' Very Jersey.
Ha, unfortunately, his flight was canceled--not sure why I get to make it off the island and he is held up in the Marriott for another 24 hours..but I'm glad! We wished each other "luck" as I continue to check back to my neighborhood "departures" screen. The departure time has changed from 2:20PM to 7:47PM to 6:20PM to 5:52Pm Well by my calculations that appears to be moving up and closer to the actual time!
Let's see...what else...oh, I posted/took some pictures to Twitter, I am getting good with my new phone. Bought some sweet headphones because I left mine at home...thankful for and their free wifi that is enabling me to come to you LIVE! Oh, and Netflix Instant Watch, thankful for that too:)
Also, so far, celebrity sitings: zero. Fingers crossed though because Newark, New Jersey you know is a hub for who's who. I hear celebs are flying through Newark on their way to the Royal Wedding...or I just made that up.
Speaking of Royal Wedding, can we all save some of this hype for when I marry Prince Charming...not sure what the big deal is really...will she or won't she wear the crown?! I hear you can book these guys hourly and fly them to the States!
I've been spending too much time with my girl Tina..starting to sound like her. Well, cheers to you Air-travel industry...here's hoping you've got your act together...:)
Let this be a reminder to me to pack my carry on in something that has wheels too...shoulder shrug!
