...and the blues continue...

Well, after the crappy thanksgiving we had, I woke up late this morning feeling even crappier. I don't know what I have but this is not the first time. Worked at home. Checked my flight and noticed it was delayed and I WILL miss my next connection. Went to the airport and United offered American with no charge. Strange but kinda "help the poor traveller" nice. Fortunately for me, I was parked in short term parking and did not have my luggage with me and the AA flight was leaving in 5-10 min. I smiled and politely asked for a reschedule. The counter person (for a lack of better term) looked at me and said "You are a smart lady. Done this before???" I'm like "No" but I'm not stupid. I rather pay the exchange fee and spend an extra nite with the family. It's 100x better than missing my connection, get stuck in Chicago with the cold front coming and spending the night in a hotel or in the concourse, oh yah, feeling crappy as I do right now. Anyway, have an early flight out with a 3 hr layover and no extra fee. It's not great but it ain't bad either.
