I should be in San Diego right now.

Or at least, on my way.

But I'm not. Because the crew of United Airlines flight 635, nonstop from Chicago to San Diego, didn't show up for work this morning. Who knows why.

Stay classy, world.

I could have stayed at the airport, crossed my fingers, and hoped to get bumped onto the 9:30 flight. But since the entire flight I was on would have been there hoping for the same thing right along with me, and it would've required me to check my luggage ahead to San Diego whether or not I was there to meet it, I passed. So I'm booked for the 8:00 flight tomorrow morning.

I canceled one day off of my hotel stay and another off of the dog sitter (SHUT UP HE'S DELICATE), so I guess in the end, I'm saving a few bucks. Hooray?

Jeez, I'm glad I didn't commit to doing anything or being anywhere for Preview Night, this year. And I'm REALLY glad I didn't shell out for a table. because if I had, I'd be single-handedly redefining COMPLETELY FUCKING UNREASONABLE right now. I do this really attractive and endearing Hurricane Kali thing sometimes, maybe I'll tape it for you guys one day so everyone can hate me.

So anyway, yeah. See you guys Thursday, hopefully. I'll try to make the most of the delay, maybe mail out summore book orders or sumthin'.

Curio sounds like everyone I hate working a box office at a small-scale music venue. "What do you MEAN I'm not on the guest list? Can't you just let me in? I'm so-and-so's cousin! They're BEST FRIEND! They LOVE ME!! WTF LET ME IN!! Oh and I need All-Access Passes too, so cough 'em up box lady or I will sue you and have your JOB!"

Airline experience is riddled with crap like this. And then airlines wonder how they can get more passengers so they don't go out of business. Here's an idea- try doing your fucking job right, assholes.

I have been known to do the "hurricane" thing myself, but my husband calls it "the little ball of fury."

Yeah, I can get into a fury over silly things. My BF has put up with me having a shit fit over various silly things in WoW, such as someone asking if I was pregnant as an insult. Bad experience from high school.

Karen-
Actually this was my shortest wait for a pro-pass so far. I wasn't out there longer than ten minutes.

Bar-codes rule!
