Yesterday in brief

April 22nd, 2008

06:07 Checking in at the airport. Syracuse, NY bound via DCA. #
06:15 Damn. Forgot a jacket. Oddly enough, this isn't the first time doing so to Syracuse. #
06:18 Very long lines this morning. Wish someone had a mobile coffee bar. #
06:46 Bad weather in DC. This could be bad. They had 6 tornados yesterday. #
07:03 Boarded. Seems to be on time so far. Small regional jet. Blah. Hate these. #
07:11 Departing soon. Phone off for now. Send love. Especially you! Yes, you! #
10:08 Touchdown DC. #
10:19 At my gate. 2.5 hours to kill. Ha. Gonna find a good spot. #
10:26 @whitshea not with the towns I visit. Haven't had a direct flight in ages. #
11:06 @agingdragqueen I'm working my way toward being considered an expert on such assets. #
11:27 Installing windows XP on to a virtual machine in the middle of the airport. This is the life? #
11:38 Apparently my laptop only has 512MB of ram? I could have sworn I had 1024. Grr. #
11:43 Giving up. This is just plain silly. #
12:01 Flight delayed to 2:15. Need more love. Arm your cameras, kids. Ready! Aim! Fire! #
12:12 I'm so sleepy. Nothing here t wake me up. #
12:24 Flight to Rochester cancelled. This doesn't bode well for my Syracuse flight. #
12:33 They keep telling me I'm departing from this gate, but my flight still isn't listed here. #
12:44 No additional flights to Rochester, buffalo, or Albany. If I don't make this flight, then I'm here till tomorrow afternoon. #
12:58 They say the plane is on the ground and that we'll be able to board in the next 15 mins. #
13:10 Boarding? I think? Jet rocks, btw! #
13:11 Boarded a bus. Either this is a really small plane or they decided to drive us to Syracuse. #
13:17 Oh! Maybe the bus will just sprout wings! That'd be awesome. And the attendants will all look like radha mitchel. #
13:20 I see my bag going on a plane. I hope that's my plane. #
13:24 Standing on the tarmac in the rain. Lovely. #
13:29 Boarded. VERY tiny plane. Good thing I showered. My knees taste good. #
13:35 Taking off now. #
14:45 Touch down Syracuse. #
15:12 Ooh! An empala. Blah. #
15:44 Hotel at last. #
18:31 Going to Joey's for lunch. #
18:31 Going to Joey's for dinner. #
18:41 @hijinksensue no, I was looking at windows and it said I only have 512. Not the virtual machine. Will upgrade ASAP. #
18:48 @agingdragqueen shut it, ho! #
19:25 @agingdragqueen aw! You're so sweet. Pfft! #
19:37 back from Joey's. Playing with Virtual Disk Managers. Missing my family and friends. Sad huh? ha :) #
21:33 Hotel internet is SOOO fast. I'm getting like.. 10kbps. Ugh! #
