Standby... part 2

I'm sitting at the gate in LAX. I have had my boarding pass check four times, and the TSA are going around with some scanner things that beep and making people take off their shoes. It's all very weird.

Brendi dropped me off (thanks Brendi!) and when Vicki checked last night the flight had a few open spots still, so I'm hopeful that things will work out and I'll get on my flight. If I get bumped I'll have to try and get a flight tomorrow, since the last flight out tonight is the red-eye at ~11:30PM.

On the way to LAX I was laughing, we had the air conditioning on in the car. It was ~70° outside, the sun was out, with a little breeze. It was so nice! I think the high in Chicago is ~47°. Feh. Still, it will be good to be home.

...

And, naturally, I got bumped. I did get listed for the first flight in the morning, with a seat assignment. That doesn't guarantee me a spot, but it means I'm automatically listed and the load looks good. My Mom is going to take the same flight with me (she's coming out to visit).
