I’m so sick of flying

After I somehow eventually manage to get back to Atlanta, I don’t want to set foot on an airplane for the rest of the summer.  This means I will miss out on my dad’s birthday, and a family beach trip, but at this point, I really don’t give a shit.  Flying hasn’t just lost its luster, it’s become the mother of all inconvenient chores that does nothing but infuriate me now.

Now if you’ll excuse me, if I’m a betting man, I think I should start looking for cheap lodging for tonight, in Fort Fucking Lauderdale, and prepare to go to bed early as fuck so I can be up at early as fuck, and get back to this fucking airport that I’ll probably get bumped twice before managing to make it back to fucking Atlanta on a fucking Tuesday afternoon, taking more fucking money out of my fucking wallet.

P.S. Miami fucking sucks, but I’ll get much more into that when I’m not fucking mad as hell.

Sounds about right

As of right now, I’ve missed six flights back to Atlanta, and I’m currently stranded at Reagan National Airport.  The storms I narrowly avoided leaving Atlanta on Friday ultimately caught up with me on Saturday, and in the process forced pretty much every airline to cancel flights left and right, to which the continuous backlash of such backlogging is striking me with much vengeance at this very moment.  I predict I will miss a total of twelve flights by the time I’m able to get through.  Thankfully I have plenty to read, and the requisite internet access to bitch and moan about how much my April’s been sucking.

Needless to say, without question, I won’t be able to make it back to Atlanta in time for me to actually do any work that I’d get paid to do.  I have the option of calling my mom and having her get me out of here until a later time when every single flight doesn’t have 50+ other stranded passengers waiting to get on, but to be perfectly honest, I’d rather wait here at the airport.  It’s barely more comfortable here than it is at my parents’ house.

Dulles Airport can eat my ass

Naturally, after weeks of normal, albeit cool weather, it turns to shit literally two hours before I need to hop on a flight back home when I have work waiting for me tomorrow. It’s been two months since I last traveled, which is the same as two years for some, and already I’m sick of flying again. I get it when employees are stressed, overwhelmed and exasperated, but it’s never any excuse to lie and make shit up to someone who is pretty familiar with the whole process. Regardless of their bullshit, I’m through security on my own accord because I’m fucking brilliant. But fuck all this ill timed Mother Nature bullshit.
