Today is the first day of a week of travel. And it was a craptastic day at that.
Today was flying from LAX to CID (Cedar Rapids). The flight got out of LAX and hour late, due to high winds in Denver. By the time I got to Denver, all the flights to CID had been cancelled. They were going to book me on a flight on Tuesday, but my meetings start at 8am Tuesday. My idea: Fly into ORD or STL and drive. They booked me to STL, arriving at 10:15pm… but then I looked closer at the map. I ended up up standby on a flight to Des Moines… and made it. Got into Des Moines around 8:30pm… and just got to my hotel room (around 11:30pm).
Along the way, somewhere, I lost my car keys and fob. This means that (a) my wife has to come deliver keys to the Flyaway, and (b) I’m going to have to pay $300 to replace the fob and key. My guess it was on the airplane somewhere, as my keys were clipped to my belt (I checked the rental car, but I’ll check again in daylight).
At least I was good on food. Yogurt and fruit for lunch. A simple sandwich (RB and cheddar, lots of veggies, no mayo) and fruit for dinner.
Now to bed….
