Planes, Trains and Automobiles.
Remember Planes, Trains and Automobiles? I haven't gone as far as John Candy and Steve Martin, but I have been tempted.I've been stuck in Pittsburgh for two days because of a SNOW STORM in NYC (and Pittsburgh).
I came for one day to spend time with David Henry while Laurel and kiddos were having Spring-Break in Savannah. I was due to fly out of Pittsburgh on Friday morning to be back at La Guardia airport by 9am. Then came the Hoo-Haa. My flight was the first PIT-LGA flight to be cancelled. And then it was game-over.
"By late last night, US Airways said it had scrapped 1,217 of its scheduled 3,700 flights."Mine was one of them.
Ahhhhh. John Candy. Where are you now?
I finally secured a seat on a flight tomorrow morning (Sunday) at 7:40am. The booking agent told me that I had an "Exit Row". I told him I'd take "Chicken Coup". If you are a praying person, pray that that flight takes off and lands in LGA on time. I really don't want to miss church- that is why I am in NYC. As it is, I'll be turning up in jeans and sneakers. Lucky I always overpack underwear and socks.
Did I just get too personal?
