Some People Should Not Be Put In Charge Of Making Decisions...

It's official...and I really don't think it could get any more official after today: I very much dislike airports and airlines and everything in between!!! I was supposed to head home from Maine earlier today, but someone obviously had different plans for me. I suppose it's meant to be...but whatever the case, I am still in Maine. The flight that I was supposed to be on was overbooked, so of course, with my luck, I was the one who was booted off. They didn't let me on the plane and I had to wait around for almost two hours trying to get things straightened out with the Man at the Gate 2 counter. Stressful hours those were, for sure! I am a sensitive, emotional person, so being put into situations like that just isn't good for me: they wipe me out. After finally getting things sorted out--getting a free round trip ticket for anywhere in the US and my tickets for 7:00 in the morning to go home on FIRST CLASS (all that's a good trade for them almost giving me a nervous breakdown)--I came back to Danny and Brenna's house and crashed on the couch for two and a half hours because I was so emotionaly drained. Please, don't ever make me do that again!
Other than all the messes I've had to deal with at airports trying to get here and go home, this trip has been worthwhile and quite fun. I like Maine; it's nice! It can be expected that I will come back again, I don't know when, but I will...someday. As for the free round trip ticket, I'm thinking New York!:)

Wow, sounds like not so much fun, but totally worth it to get a free ticket and flying first class. New York sounds awesome to me! Hope you made it home safe!
