Now that I have been back to Philly 5 times since i moved away 2 years ago, I finally believe I am done with the place. Man I love philly, but don't want to live there again. People are just plain miserable. Wawa on Xmas-eve, people were just plain grumpy. Come on now, its fucking christmas!! Show some cheer. Just made me realize how I use to be that way, how much I've changed to enjoy all moments of life. I do believe skiing has influenced me greatly in this department, as well as hanging out in this cheery placeAll kidding aside, I love my family, I love my friends, but I love Colorado too.
Short horror flying story:
Flying out of Philly on the 27th, my plane was delayed 90 minutes and I had a connecting flight in Chicago. I see the counter lady, she puts me on a flight that is leaving 30 minutes early, then winds up leaving 60 minutes after my original flight actually leaves. Gets me into O'hare late, i book all the way across from F terminal to C terminal in 10 minutes with wife and bags, miss the plane by 5 minutes. Get on standby for 2 remaining flights of the day, NO go. No one will fess up to who should be putting me in a hotel (US air coming in and United going out) so we crash at the overpriced Hilton at 11pm, back in the airport at 5:30am, don't make the next 2 flights on standy, because there were 80 people on standbyFinally get a good Customer service person who sends me to Memphis, then to Denver (thank you patron saint), otherwise there were no flights with space in them till Thursday. So Fuck you very much US airways and Untied. There are many letters of complaint coming your way, hopefully I will see something in return. chances are that US air will not be in the air for much longer though.
Now I am not working for the rest of the week. I am happy to be home in my house with my 2 pups. It feels like the holidays actually just started when i got home.
Now who wants to go skiing??
