But now I'm stuck...one state away from home. First it was an electrical problem on the plane, followed by weather issues. In order for the plane to take-off, 50% of the passengers were going to get bumped. Since this was the last flight of the day, that meant another night in a hotel for a whole bunch of us.
Before they started pickin' people off one by one, they asked for volunteers. So, out of the kindness of my heart, I volunteered. (Well, the kindness of my heart and the fact that I got a free flight anywhere in the country!)
But it's taking forever to get my 50% rebooked. So until I can attack the cushy pillows of my next hotel, I'll make due with my carry-on luggage.
Goodnight.

love your blogging! ive been busy the past few days, and its awesome to log and see there are so many posts from you to read.
<3 ya!
Oh my goodness, I feel terrible since I was the one who booked that flight for you!!!! Hope you get home soon...
And now for the update:
After waking up early for my next flight, I was bumped from that one, as well. But I made it on a flight heading 90 miles from my original destination, so after it landed, a whole mess of us got bussed the rest of the way.
And it was all worth it because I got another free round-trip flight. So the two flights my wife has coming up later in the year are now totally free. So thank you, Jennifer! :-)
(And I even made it home in time to watch the Oscars!)
What a bummer! I hope you didn't have any more problems after that.
