I'm in the Charlotte NC airport
Check your maps: Charlotte is NOWHERE NEAR on the way from Nashville TN to Columbus OH.

Thanks Orbitz. :P


(But they have free WiFi!)

14. I got to take the most amazing trip
Edited on Wed Oct-31-07 04:16 PM by SallyMander
to the Galapagos Islands when i was in college... (I'm a biologist, so that was like the Holy Grail!!)

When i got home, i felt depressed for days... maybe even weeks! It is so hard to go back to "real life" after something like that.

You'll just have to start planning the next trip! :-)

:hug:

17. I am already
I'll take two shorter trips next year, money permitting. Hopefully that will be less traumatic when going back to work. ;)

I'm sorry I missed you.

2. I once had a dream about the Charlotte airport
Which is very weird because I've never been there in my life. Nor do I have any plans to go there in the immediate future.

I dreamt I came across my old girlfriend there by chance. Which is probably why I still remember it.

5. That's funny... was her name Charlotte?
Or was it just completely random?

I had a dream last night that i was giving birth to twins, and didn't know they were twins... :scared: What does that mean???

11. Nope...
Just completely random. I do have dreams about her often though, as I mentioned in another post.

8. If this plane lands in Virginia
i'm gonna just get off and start hitchhiking!!! While carrying along your ham, of course. I may have to carve some off in exchange for a ride... is half a ham OK?

:hi:

10. Charlotte says hi back
:hi:

It looked nice from the aerial view!

I've been feeling glad that i'm not going to Orlando... i keep hearing announcements about that flight, and it keeps getting delayed later... and later... and later. Poor Floridians!

13. I once was waiting in Dallas, TX
for my flight back to Savannah, GA. It snowed a tiny biot and all the flights got delayed. Those Southerners aren't used to the white stuff :rofl: Orlando was one of the destinations that got delayed over and over again back then too. Savannah too but not as bad. I think they were supposed to leave an hour before us and left after us. Poor them.
