Here we are at the airport, standing by We are 8 and 10 on the standby list.
The only time I ever flew stand-by I managed to be called right away, both directions, so that’s not too bad. I don’t know enough about it to like it, but as long as it works!!
Good luck, then! I bet Jake will be glad to see you, or bawl you out for being gone, or both. And Shannon may actually spew in honor of your return! ;o]
