No, no, a thousand times no!! We need you!!
How was RWA?
Yuck!! That sucks! :(
That sucks, but maybe you could catch up on your sleep while you wait...
Oh no! That sucks, Erica!
...but I feel your pain. What is it about SF/Oakland right now? Flight from Oakland to Phoenix: On time. From Phoenix to Austin: Err. Well, there's this hurricane...
Getting home from Nationals doesn't seem to be the easiest thing this year. Hope your journey back gets better! (Or that you at least get plenty of free flight vouchers!)
Feeling for you, Erica. I flew from SF to LA, then waited 5 hours for the red-eye to Tampa that was delayed another hour, and managed to arrive home with a terrible cold picked up somewhere in route. Ugh!
