I got a ride home. As long as I'm horizontal I don't feel so bad. I hope this doesn't last too long.
What? She killed 'em with mathematics. What else could it have been?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
-t, I'm glad you got a ride home. I hope the headache eases up soon.

At the rate my flight keeps getting pushed back—arrival time is now 11:59 pm CST—I may still be in the air for the poll results tomorrow. Get it together, United! Though I suppose blowing up my phone with multiple delay notices is better than just waiting at the gate with no idea when we're leaving.
LAX was its usual fiasco, but the LA-Denver leg was the most comfortable large commercial flight I've been on. And for the first time, I've seen an airplane lavatory with enough room to do one's business. People being able to join the Mile High Club actually looked to be physically possible!

We decided to go to a restaurant about 15 minutes away, which turned out to be a bad decision when it started raining torrentially. And the restaurant wasn't even that good.
And my back is killing me, and nothing seems to be making it better, and it's really fucking frustrating, not to mention owie.

Arrival time now 12:19 am. Stranded in Rockies, considering tradition of resorting to cannibalism to make it through.

The Denver airport has a Ben and Jerry's. At least, the terminal I flew through does.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I imagine Matt struggling through the snow-covered mountains, glaring at his unpleasant but well-fleshed seatmate, while Dana rigs up a complicated system of trebuchets and rockets to get him some Ben&Jerry's by direct air delivery to save him from resorting to long pork.

Well, the Ben and Jerry's is on the second level.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh dear, Matt -- good luck!
I got my flu shot, and it was so fast! I swear last year I waited more than an hour. Today? In and out in 15 minutes.
