I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
It was the grand jury thing. I saw the transcripts before I left.
I have made it to the hotel. Storms closed the airport in Chicago for a bit, so we circled and the pilot freaked us all out about possibly not having enough gas. But we landed on time. Then we had to wait almost an hour for the bags because it wasn't safe to unload them. Then there was insane traffic on what is normally a 10-minute shuttle ride. I had breakfast at 9:30 and no lunch, which was a mistake on my part. My back hurts. shrift is delayed.
I ordered me a damn quesadilla from room service.

And I put on pajamas.
Now I have had a couple of pieces of quesadilla, which will tide me over until shrift gets in and we figure out what we want for dinner.

At this point, it's probably going to be The House of Meat for dinner if they're still open whenever I actually get in. Or delivery.

Yeah, I ate more of my quesadilla. I will go and have a drink with you, though.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Local radio announcer :"chance of isolated pop up thunderstorms" as an apocalyptic storm descends, hail and wind warning popping up on all my devices.
That happened here yesterday. Kind of hilarious if it weren't so apocalyptic.

Well, I'm probably going to grab something here in Minneapolis while we're in limbo.
A drunk guy who wouldn't return to his seat probably prevented us from taking off in the window we had before Chicago did another ground stop. We had to deplane because our pilots needed to go off shift.

Actually, the pilots left to go bury the drunk guy, right?

I think our flight attendants did, not gonna lie.
I just spent $11 on a glass of Pinot Gris. YOLO.
