No where fun.

Darn. Sorry about that and that the plane is cancelled

Thanks. I was so frustrated because we didn't get a notification. We got a call at 3 am, but there was no one on the other end. Apparently it was the airline, but we didn't know. When I got to the airport and tried to check in 3 different ways I heard someone say "if you're going to xxx then you're in he wrong line. That flight was cancelled". I had to wait 1.5 hours before even talking to an employee. Grr.

Wow. That's some of the worst airline customer service I've seen. Also 3am call with no one on the other end would convince me I'm in a horror movie and I'd probably shit my pants.

[apunicorn]

Oh @whitney I'm so sorry that you're traveling for a family member's funeral. And here I am with my "going anywhere fun?" remark. Terribly sorry for your loss.

I'm so sorry again for you loss, Whitney. And for the shitty airline situation. Nothing worse than being stuck at the airport. I'm glad you're getting out later today.

I'm at work, leaving in a few but wanted to leave you this to cheer you up.


Also I can't think of Kanye without thinking of @kemye13

[WVaRN]

And I'm so sorry for your loss. I recently lost my grandfather also. I'm so glad you go to say your goodbyes.

[WVaRN]

Here is a hot pic for you

[akraus2015]

I spend lots of time bored at the airport. I usually either drink, or read. Do you participate in book club?? I'm already halfway through The Red Tent. It's a good one!!

Are you at least in a good airport? I like the ones where I can shop!

Its decent, but my gate is so far from everything! I decided to pull an all-nighter like an idiot so I have no energy. :-( I did walk to Caribou, but my legs quit working when I hit the chair.

Oh no! I hope you get some good sleep once you're safely on the plane!

[butlerfan]

Safe travels and sorry about your loss. It's hard enough to travel at this time let alone when you flight is canceled/delayed/rescheduled.

I would bitch them out and get some sort of upgrade or voucher or something.

Can you at least eat or shop?

[Sparkly]

Me right now:

You guys are doing a good job keeping me entertained! T-2 hours until departure.

I wish I could send you my kid. She'd keep you entertained.

Lol. How old is she? I nanny a 3.5 and a 9 month old. They keep me SO busy.

14 months and definitely busy

Climbing is her favorite.

[butlerfan]

Are there fun/angry/entertaining people to people watch?

[cabgirl]

Ugh, I'm so sorry the airline screwed up and you have to wait, on top of everything else. What poor timing.

Is it morning where you are? Can you at least get a bloody mary somewhere? Then you'd be able to sleep on the flight.

FFSC?

It IS pretty funny.

[joy]

Sorry, whit. Tough week.

I've actually never gotten notifications of cancelled flights. I'm always checking status online and calling once it turns red. Ha. USAirways has a hub in Philly so it's always them. Interesting to know that notifications exist.

Good luck with your travels. I'm sorry about your grandfather.

[cabgirl]

joy, your new sig picture is so pretty. (New to me, anyway.)

Not anymore. There were several when everyone was waiting for TSA and tickets. Now it's just clumsy toddlers and me questioning people wearing tank tops in the dead of winter in MN. I KNOW we are in the airport, but seeing people in a tank top and then looking outside at the snow is just weird.

He he. I am one who has many layers on because it's winter and Wisconsin. I see people in t-shirts or shorts and think "how can you be warm?"

Where in MN are you?

[ashleymarie26]

**lurking** I've spent many a hour in the good old msp airport.... if you are in the G concourse, I suggest walking down to the end (gates 20ish I think) and there are about 10 restaurants with iPads at every chair, and twinburger has some pretty amazing bloody marys! I'm so sorry to hear about your grandpa, and good luck with the rest of your flights!

That's an awesome idea! It's 7:45 here right now. 

Side note: I wanted to high five the guy next to me on the plane last weekend that ordered two jack (maybe a different liquor? I don't remember) and Cokes on our 6 am flight. 

Do ittt! My H travels often with one of his bands, and he gets a bloody mary before every flight. (I never fly anywhere, or I'd do the same.)

I'm in C, so pretty far from G.

Thanks!



--I should probably worry about stranger danger giving away my concourse and my destination. Oh well.

I'm about 2 to 2 1/2 hours away in La Crosse area.

Can someone explain "spirit animal" to me? I guess I kind of get the concept, but why isn't it "spirit twin" or something? Why "animal"?

I don't really get it, either.

[ghostmonkey]

Can this be my spirit animal?
