In case you are not constantly keeping yourself up-to-date with Chicago weather, "they" are calling for 9 inches of freezing rain, also knows as sleet, and snow. The original project, which was all anyone at work could talk about, was expected to arrive at 3pm today. Being that I am flying home tomorrow morning, I was a bit distressed...
One year, I was flying back to Chicago on Christmas day. I has spend a few days at home visiting friends and family, but wanted to get back in time to beat the masses of after-holiday travelers.
Much to my surprise, that did not work out at all. Not because there were load of Christmas Day travels, but rather because a storm decided to create the perfect winter wonderland of a Christmas morning...trapping me in JFK for 5 hours...

cranky moms...
babies screaming...
kids running...
drunk dads who have seem this as a chance to hand out at the airport bar
watching sports and leering inappropriately at any woman walking by...
people taking up 4 seats to sprawl out and sleep...
customers arguing...
staff freaking out...
it was a nightmare!
This just in...
the snowstorm that was expected to start at 3pm has just been moved to 7pm. GREAT! (sarcastic)
Now, when I am supposed to be leaving on a let plane, it will most likely:
a. still be snowing (so we won't fly)
or
b. the snow will not be cleared off the runway yet (so we will not fly)
Super!
As I cannot help but bitch nonstop via email to my girlfriend about how miserable my travels will be, she, in an attempt to sooth my pessimistic cries, she suggests offers me her (non-working ) ipod, taking a good book, or having a couple drinks at the bar.
I immediately thought, what am I reading currently...oh, that's right, The Ultimate Guide to Cunnilingus. Now that sounds like great airport reading material. I can only imaging the interesting looks I will get. Plus, with a few drinks in me, this could be an opportunity for educating the masses...
or...someone will be getting arrested.
fortunately, i look good in orange.
