Wireless...aaaaaaah
Friday, August 13, 2004
I love places that have wireless networks available - ripe for pillaging!
I’m at the airport right now. It’s 1:11am on the Friday the 13th. This is the day i move to New York. That being said, i’m sitting in ONT airport right now cuz my flight was delayed a good 3 hours. I’m not complaining because without that delay, i would never have made it on the plane (i was very late getting to the airport) and might have also been charged an extra $50 for my box going 6.5 pounds over the weight limit (Merv, they were *way* uber picky about that weight thing!). They gave me the baggage thing because they made us wait for the flight. phew!
Security also seemed to find something very interesting in my bag. They pulled it to shreds which took a good 30 minutes for the whole process.
Whatever the case may be, i’m gonna get on a plane at 3 am! Yay Jesus! I think he was lookin’ out for me when it came to this situation.
AND now while i’m waiting, i find that there’s a wireless network available for FREE! woot! So i’ve been catching up with email/IMing and such for the past hour. I’ve been away from the internet so long - a whole TWO DAYS! I had to cancel our DSL at our house in order to transfer the charges into someone else’s name. I was almost having withdrawals.
So here i am, passing time at the airport, listening to the wretched screaming of the worm babies echo through the accoustically superb waiting lounge. Thanks to my laptop, a nice set of headphones, and Norah Jones, i’m immune. Weeee!
Aaah, so much to be thankful for.
at least you made it on the flight! max ‘n i, well, our flight was at 6:45 am and so we set our alarm for 4 to get there on time… problem was it was set for 4 am! given that we only went to bed around 2ish, we didn’t even wake up till 8:45!!! after a quick rush to the airport, we made it through security and onto the only other flight to toronto (at 9:45)as standby with about 5 minutes to go before the plane took off. *sigh*
but the fact that i’m posting this means that we made it (barely!) and enjoying our time here.
i met max’s grandpa, he’s pretty nice. although we mostly just started at each other and spoke in our respective languages.
anyway, glad you made it!
