'Out Of Gas'


Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Or what DawnK said.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I'm at phl now, but my car is parked at the airport where I live.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I am alive and feeling better. smonster, thank yoou for calling me, it means a lot! I've promised to go to the damn doctor tomorrow and make sure I don't have pneumonia.

Almost fainting on my kitchen floor scared the crap out of me.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Can you find a local desk of the rental company you used and have them change over the card before you get on your next flight?

I think the issue is it's an unmanned parking lot where you swipe your card in lieu of having a ticket.

My hunch is that Daniel's idea may work, since they are reading the basic data off the card to get the time/date info. But if there is a way to contact the lot it probably wouldn't hurt - there must be cases where people have lost cards before.

The credit card company might have seen this come up before too - might be worth asking them.

it's not a rental car, it's my own car.

Right now, I'm too tired and frustrated to deal with making a bunch of phone calls. I'll see what I can do when I get there.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

There is going to be a button to push or a number to call when you get there, Hil. It's not worth getting worked up over. They've needed to deal with this situation before, surely. And before the card entries, with people losing their tickets. Get there and deal with it then. Don't stress.

That's what I'm trying to do, cass. Nothing I can do until I get there. Right now, I'm just hoping that, unlike the last two flights I was supposed to be on, this one will not be canceled.

I would say that I'm not flying us airways again, but as long as I'm living where I live, and my relatives are living where they live, I don't have many options.

Pretty much. And I really think they'll have a stream-lined way to deal once you are there.

smonster, I am sorry you were laid off but I really think this might be an opportunity for you. Wishing you calm through it though because, opportunity or not, stressful.

And, there go the tornado sirens. Crap. And what the hell am I supposed to do about the cookies I put in the oven two minutes ago?
