## 1630 sitting on the tarmack waiting

I am on my way to a small town near Tampa, Florida today. At this
time, I should have already been to my destination. Instead I will not
arrive at my hotel room until after 0100 tomorrow. This summer has
been constant flight delays. Last night I got notification that my
flight from Wyoming to Denver at 0545 was canceled. I was rebooked on
a 1530 flight instead. This was then canceled as well as of 1000 this
morning. At which time I booked a flight originating in Salt Lake
City, Utah. I jumped in my car and sped to SLC. Once in the airport I
get notification that the flight from SLC to Denver is delayed. I may
indeed miss my connection and be stuck in Denver. I wanted to avoid
Denver altogether as it has become the bane of my existence.
Unfortunately there were no other options.

Fuck my life.

## Update from Denver

I ended up making it, but I had to run from the gate I landed at to
the one I am leaving from. I am sitting on the plane at the gate
right now as I type this. I did get upgraded on this flight so at
least I can get a coffee and bailey's once we take off. That'll make
it a tad more tolerable.

## Update from the air

Some flight crews are lax with mask enforcement. This is not one of
those crews. This is going to be a long three hours.

## Update from Florida

Checked in at 0120. Need to be to work at 0700... going to be a
tough day.
