Gad. Zooks. I’m wiped out. Of the hundreds of times I’ve taken this very same flight this was the worst. Ever. I think I actually could have driven to from SEA to SFO faster.

Just now got to my hotel. I guess air travel over the country came to a screeching halt or something today. Tstorms and tornado warnings at O’Hare closed it down. Evacuated the tower. Out here they’re telling us that pretty much the whole midwest shut down. The plane for my flight was stuck at ORD most of the day. Then they finally boarded us, and a bunch of seats were empty that were supposedly full. Then they moved this whole planeload of some tourgroup from China from a cancelled LAX flight to ours so we got to sit and wait while 30 or 40 of them found the plane and got situated. That took an hour.

An hour.

So... All’s well that ends well. [sigh]

I’m gonna be a mess tomorrow. Good thing my big meeting isn’t until Wednesday.

No problem here. The language is beautiful.
