Since I was sick last night, I didn't even try to make my early morning flight to Cincinnati. When I finally did get up, I felt a lot better, and decided to make the trip - off to the airport. Things started well - they gave me a standby ticket for no charge, and it looked like I'd get they by late afternoon. But Whoa there - not so fast! The flight was delayed. And delayed. And delayed. They started announcing that connections would be blown. The follow on flight got cancelled - so my standby started looking dicier. Off they sentt me and 3 others, by cab, to DCA. So I get here, check in, and find out that the flight I'm standing by for is oversold. Whee. There's another one - 15 minutes later - that I can probably make if I run from the one gate to the next, if I don't get on. This just gets better and better.....
