The day began before I had even retired to bed.
After little sleep, I was maliciously awaken from my deep slumber. At that point I began a rushed hectic day.
First, I packed in less then 20 minutes.
By 7:30 am, I was seated in a car headed west . . . Which continued for four additional hours.
Upon arriving at the airport, we journeyed to a restaurant, where, once again, we sat for nearly an hour.
Due to an unavoidable paper jam, my wait at the terminal left me no relaxing time before I was sentenced to over 2 hours of further time spent sitting (this time, in a jet, seated next to a guy from Windsor).
Upon arriving at the next airport, I discovered that, due to the weather, my flight was delayed nearly an hour.
So, I spent 2 hours on an airport terminal chair, waiting (as patiently as was humanly possible for me at that point) for my flight to arrive.
It eventually arrived and I rushed to my seat (though rushing did nothing to hurry along the process- it appeared that every other passenger had all the time in the world to waste in an airport terminal!) only to find I was to be seated next to the same guy as I was on the attachment flight (not necessarily a unsatisfactory experience).
And so, I spent even further time in a plane.
When I ultimately arrived at my final destination (as far as an aircraft was concerned) I was blessed to have my luggage within the first 150 to appear on the luggage belt!
To finalize my travels, I rode in a taxi for 45 minutes (which cost nearly $55) to find myself arriving as late as humanly possible, without being completely late, at work!
Thank God for safe travels, even though they were not under the most enjoyable of conditions.
It can always be worse . . .
-I only wish I was not so excessively tired which presently prevents me from fulfilling my substantial need for sleep-
