Where I am supposed to be, and where I am not

[jethrien]

Right now, I'm supposed to be on a plane taking off to go to a friend's wedding in Florida, in which I am a bridesmaid.

Currently, I am sitting at my computer at home.

Thank you, Delta, for not telling us that you'd cancelled our flight.

They actually did try to get us onto a Continental plane on the other side of the airport that was leaving imminently. After a mad run across the airport, we discovered they'd already gone to gate-restricted boarding. Another run to try to get back to the counter to get on the early morning flights.

We'll be getting up at 3:15am to make the 6am flight.

Fun.

i suppose i just have to thank my body for somehow warding off the noticeable swelling of my face until the end of our reception on saturday. i still find it a little miraculous that i had been itching everywhere for 20 hours, but didn't have to go to the emergency room until 4 a.m.

but yes. i WISH i could trust my body to be ok to be there this weekend... but ben's at a conference in vancouver, so he wasn't going to be able to be there with me, and i just don't want to fuck up anyone else's weekend with more trips to the ER.

Oh, sweetie. What a way to spend a wedding.

No, while I'm sure everyone wishes you could be there too, at least this way you won't spend the entire thing worrying you'll end up in a hospital far from home.

I hope things balance out again soon.
