[travel]

So, due to insane amounts of snow in Boston (my boss said something like 27 inches in Andover), we are stuck in Baltimore for an extra day.

When we checked the flight this morning (not, BTW, something I generally do), it was canceled. And, when I tried to get it rescheduled, the only available spaces were on a flight leaving fairly late tonight, and not from the airport we came in on. Since that would have made me thoroughly useless for work anyway, we ended up choosing a flight tomorrow morning. Apparently - again according to my boss - Logan was completely closed yesterday, and for part of this morning. No _wonder_ nothing was available today!

2 _feet_ of snow?!

This weekend has been good - even though I was not as social as I might have liked. Kept having 'exhausted due to people' problems. Ah, well. 'Tis the season for that for me! Many shiny people. :)

Yeah. It would've been very bad, particularly since we [me and roommates] may not have been able to even cross the street to the conference. And I definitely would've missed some of the panels, freebies, and the flight home.

True! But you could, perhaps, have worn different shoes for the outside portion?

Yeah, but flights were delayed and canceled anyway; that would have just meant they rescheduled things (although it would possibly also have meant you missed classes and such, as well?).

Oh, I wasn't meaning shoes, but whether the street was passable.

Some of the panels were in hotels a few blocks away; they could've been difficult to reach. No, I doubt I would've missed classes... I gave myself some leeway with that. :)

Oh, ah. Right. :)
