That trip was about the worst one I have had for a long time. The only other bad one was a trip to Asia...somehow I got on the plane with NO reading material. I nearly had a panic attack. My seatmate was a kind guy, though, he was reading a paperback and would tear out pages for me as he read it. Saved me. Too funny. That trip was about the worst one I have had for a long time.

They were flying me to some business meeting through DFW and they didn't get me there in time to make my connecting flight. It's 11:00 at night and I ask them what the next step is (the meeting is at 8:00 the next morning) and they tell me that they can put me on the next flight out to where I was going...at 4:30!! I asked if there was something they could do for me in the meantime like put me up for the evening somewhere so that I could catch a couple of hours sleep. They told me, "No...but here's a shaving kit." I think I still have the shaving kit. It had one of those really neat Bic disposables.
