Interesting pit stops I have

Alrighty then, so I'm in Detroittttt. I had to googlemaps it when I got here coz I had no idea where it is, other than west of Boston. The flight was good, I had complimentary cookies (the best kind) for breakfast. And then Taco Bell for lunch. YAY TACO BELL! Another item crossed off my To Do/To Eat lists.

I still have like an hour and a half until I start boarding but so far my gate hasn't changed so I am thankful for that. I'm sitting here at the gate next to the charger stand with my devices all charging around me like an electric octopus, and I'm about to crack open the kindle.

The reason I am here and not in Seattle where I am supposed to be, despite my swearing that I will never ever again catch a connecting flight here in America - because the airports are RIDICULOUS - is that Alaska Airways cancelled my flight and then had no one at their check in, so I went to Delta to ask what's going on and they booked me on a flight I was not supposed to be able to get a seat on. Yes, some sneakiness went on but only because I am so charming. Also I may have been trembling a bit because let's face it, no one wants to get stuck at the airport during a Hurricane. They spent about 30 minutes getting me my ticket and then I had about 10 to run all the way to my gate before it took off without me. I got to bypass most of the security line and everything. YAY VIP!


But still. Damn you, Sandy. Ruining my plans.
