Sigh.

So today has been slightly stressful and very annoying.
We get to the airport, running out of the house, worrying about the dogs, and not sure if we have everything we need.
AT THE BAGGAGE CHECK IN (Around 7 ish)-
"Just FYI your flight has been delayed till 3:30 a.m."
Wait, what. We JUST booked this crap. It said 8:20.
:S Sorry. You didn't book THRU United sooo priceline wouldn't say you had a delayyyy... yehhhhh all flights are booked k bye.
Hailey, "Let's go home. This is great. I can sleep in my own bed. Sure, the SEVEN HOUR delay is really crappy, but I'll get some real sleep before the flight - which are nearly impossible to sleep on anyway. Let's call the cab back that just dropped us off."
Dahm, "let's try to get a standby flight. LET'S ADVENTURE TO AS MANY PLACES AS POSSIBLE!!!"
*Walks through security for about 20 minutes and goes to gate 25 (on the opposite side of the airport)* *leaves Hailey for a few minutes* *Returns*
"Let's go find a United dude to try and fly out of Maui to denver."
*Walk around and around till hailey points at a map*
Hailey - "bruh. Only way to talk to them is AT the baggage check in. Where we were 45 minutes ago. They said no flights."
Dahm - "yeah but this delta guy said maybe we can do this flight so let's go talk to them anyway"
*wanders to united eventually*
United - "No flights, all full kbye sorry not gonna check kbye"
Hailey - " can we call a #*&$(#*&$(*)@(* cab now?"
Dahm - "Nah let's go check out the USO and see if it's any good."
*Walks another ten minutes to USO. Takes a look around, sees there are no beds available, Dahm eats half a sandwich*
*Hailey glares at Dahmahnic. It is now 8:45 p.m. Hailey is exhausted on top of everything else. Hailey has hurt feet from badly designed flip flops.*
Dahm - "Ok we'll go home now we just need to figure out how,"
Hailey "........... taxi."
Dahm - "You said you saw a shuttle service earlier, let's go look."
*Sighs*
*no representatives available there. walks outside.*
Hailey - "let's sit and call a cab."
Dahm - let's go walk to the bus stop over there and see if any busses will take us home
Hailey - "#(*$(*&$#($&!!!!! YOU CAN DO THAT ON YOUR PHONE FROM GOOGLE MAPS."
*Walks over to bus stop, no stops by our house*
*Hailey sighs and feels like kicking some flowers*
Dahm - "Look over there is a taxi service"
Hailey - "If they don't already have fares...."
*Walks over to taxi's,Luckily they had no one waiting for specifics.*
*Hailey face palms because they could've gone home two hours earlier.*
It is now 9:30 p.m. We got home around twenty minutes ago. Hailey is tired but less grumpy than she was being stuck at the airport. Hailey could have walked home by now.
At least I get a couple hours to sleep.....
