Sunday, November 14. Stuck in Detroit & going to Philadelphia

Today, early today I missed my connecting flight to Philadelphia. I 
am stuck in Detroit my my luggage arrives three hours before I do.  I had to call the special number and walk all the way around walk back and throw from the airport.  They have this big empty

 hallway do you have to go down the escalator go through that and go up the escalator to the other terminal. Another

 words terminals ANB are very far from each other thank God they had those
 moving sidewalks. It is really cloudy and gray here in cold Detroit. To complete 

difference in whether it’s amazing. I’m sitting here deciding if I want to eat if I don’t have coffee 

or I just wanna wait on that stuff I’m tired but at least I’m charging my 

phone so I don’t lose contact with the outside world. It is now 8:16 AM.  It’s 12:55 PM  we finally  landed

 people are actually getting off the plane in Philadelphia. I just found out the airport 

line runs every hour because it is you know Sunday. Happy sleep because you know she took out the 

Detroit. I hope it doesn’t take me too long to find my luggage which was in Philadelphia

 since probably at least 11 o’clock. Well I Have Finally Rd., Philadelphia 

and around 1 PM Eastern time. I was able to find my luggage pretty easily. I then decided

 to take Uber because it was just easier. We got home and turned it to 
Danny and eventually took a shower. Everything took a while because I’ve barely slept. I’m now on the 105 bus 
 heading to Ardmore. It is now 3:50 PM go to I got to the Ardmore House 

house at 5:15 PM we decided to not walk because I’m so down to the world that it really work. I’m actually surprisingly coherent considering the long ass flight and missing connecting flight stuff that I went through earlier today. So I took a nice nap and I feel like I weighed 500 pounds trying to get up. I had dinner and we talked and mellowed out I think at the better half decent time. Tomorrow’s my first day of work in two weeks which I haven’t done in years.

Wednesday March 20th: Rolling Thru Exhausted

I woke up feeling tired and showered and that really warmed me up. I went thru 

 Twitter and it’s very interesting indeed! I read in this conservative magazine of old style Republicans that there’s finally a US Senator Johnny Isakson blasted Trump for tearing in to John McCain after he is  dead. I even 
listened to Bill Kristol on a 

 odcast talking about Trump.. I mean hearing saying Republicans was really refreshing actually. Yeah they took shots at the
Democrats but based on policy not on bazaar bullshit like Trump and his followers do. I got to the meeting about half hour late but this speaker was still 
well into her presentation. She was old style 

 A from what I can surmise. She was very engaging and energetic  I tried a 

 ew pair of pants that I had bought from Macy’s🤪anyhow I stopped into 
CVS got a couple of my favorite drinks and a Celeste pizza for something different to eat. I’m actually going to show up on time by 9 o’clock. I am hoping I 

 an roll and some sanctions and then write my description of my job that I’m asked to do by tomorrow. It’s 1:30 PM my supervisor didn’t come in today and I did one sanctionin & did a couple other little piddling things. Feeling 
 somewhat distracted. My supervisor did 
 eventually come in and I continue to be distracted. I got seven new alerts and illuminated them all but only route up one sanction. I grew very very tired. By  the end of the day, I was exhausted. I decided I would 

 ust go home and take a nap. Tonight was not dinner night with Joe and I slept for 2 hours. I then got up because my nuts were

 hurting. I then he talk to Joe and saw a mouse ‘s crawling under 

 he dishwasher. And then went back to sleep.I just learned that for the AA convention 

 cheduled for next year, you can’t get a hotel room until you have registered for the 

 vent. Also saw that there’s not that many hotel space in Detroit. They had 5 years to  

prepare but oh well we’ll see how that happens
I just learned that for the AA conventiona a person 

 an’t reserve a hotel until registration is complete. Not sure what 

  am to do about that? I have someone who seems interested

 to meet me from Bumble. She lives near Croyden. We will need to see if it has a chance to make it work. You know the distance and lifestyle barriers and my fears.

Detroit stop. I will not be officially grounded till 9:30 PM Eastern time. This is a brand-new plane but I overheard. It has USB ports on the back of the front seat seat in front of me so I can charge my phone.

This is a big step and passenger convenience. I did notice they have no cupholders. It is

now 8:00 PM our flight is been delayed already 20 minutes as of now. We are sitting in Detroit

it is cold outside as hell. The other flight is just rolling into the little thingy that's going to let them out of the plane. So  we're

not  leave until 8:45PM so looks like at least 45 minutes late for this flight. I'm gonna

have to call Larry and let him know as well they don't have enough room for carry-on so I donated my bag for freight to be part of the luggage. At home there's sort of

misunderstanding freak out going on which apparently is calmed down at this time. I've been watching a special about the Chicago Cubs blowing game 6 the game 2003 league championship series

against the Florida Marlins. The Cubs had a 3-0 lead in the 8th inning. Cubs fans blamed it on this guy named Steve Bartman.

They talk about how everybody blamed Bill Buckner for blowing the 1986 World Series against the

Mets in game 6. The reason for being late is that it's snowing here in the happy confines of Detroit Michigan.

The plane is moving it is now 8:49 PM Eastern daylight Time. I'm looking outside it looks like it's raining

in Detroit not snow. It's 9:14 PM when we going to lift off. Just found out Wednesday morning 8:30 AM. It's going to be one hell of a

week my blocking buddies.
