chelelevMark was scheduled to fly to Florence, SC for an interview tomorrow. I spent considerable time last night convincing him to carry on a bag with extra interview clothes - some of the c lothes I had just bought him because nothing I bought 3 years ago fits him.
First of all, he overslept. Not a big deal, there is no security line at the airport where he was flying out of. 2 hours before hand? Forget it, they don't even open two hours before the first flights out and his flight left at 6 am. He began to wonder why they did not give him all his boarding passes when he first checked in.
He flew into Denver. According to Delta at Denver, the final airport was closed due to the remote chance Ernesto was going to morph into this huge hurricane. He called the company, they called the airport, nope, airport was open. No problem.
Got to Atlanta. Delta had cancelled his final hop, in annticipation of the huge storm. Mind you, the final destination is over 80 miles inland and not one spin of any track that storm could take involved it turning left along South Carolina. He finally got out of Atlanta way late by flying into a different city and renting the car from there instead of the one reserved. I had to convince him to make the car reservation NOW and not wait until he landed so that there would be a car for him. I doubted he was the only person trying to get from Atlanta to last location and all of those people might be looking for a car too.
Good thing he took extra clothes. Guess whose luggage is MIA? Guess who doesn't have any toiletries because W thinks toothpaste is a threat to his freedoms? Oh way, I am morally and intellectually confused if I desent against the current administration. Have they taken away my right to think and have an opinion?
I left off much wanking since he may or may not read this and quite honestly, even I don't kick him when he is this down. Just not sporting.

Date: 2006-09-01 10:01 am (UTC)I would rather take the job in Vermont, puts me close to family that I am willing to see. I'd be close to Boston as a place to go play, too far to work there. But, if Carolina offers us a job, pays about what we make here and are willing to kick some moving money (or do it themselves), I'll have to go there. Hope they give us some wiggle room.
Nicolle has given me your new address, which I hame promptly misplaced. Could you email your address to me? I can send things via Heather, I have her address somewhere.
Was it you who liked Bath and Body Cranberry Christmas scent or did you like the Candy Apple?

I can email the address, I've done that several times lately, lol. I like both scents about the same, and with fall closing in I think apple is a great scent to start filling the house with! What a great idea! I have so many apple and pumpkin candles I could be using.
