stuck

it's 5:00 am california time. except i'm not in california. i'm in texas. i'm at dallas/ft. worth airport and i'm on standby. and its the holidays. and i get the feeling we're going to be here for a loooong time.

due to bad weather, we left san francisco airport yesterday three hours late. and then we missed our connecting flight to detroit. american airlines then said we could go to a hotel and gave us a voucher. so we were like, whatever, except that we had to wake up at 3:00 am CA time. turns out we actually had to pay for our hotel (a total shock, airlines have always paid for hotel rooms)and we woke up super early for our 6:45 flight (TX time) and guess what? even though we confirmed the flight last night, they informed us at the gate that we were on standby and there was only one seat left. there was no way we were splitting up so we're going to sit here for four more hours until we get on the next flight. hopefully.

never fly american airlines.
