September San
Francisco Trip (9/19 – 9/28)
A Day In the Airports = Not a Strong Start :/
After the longest length of time away from each other (3 weeks), I headed
to SF on Friday, September 19th! I took the day off at work because
we found a super cheap flight that left around 1pm and got me to SF at 5:30pm
PST – which was the earlier than I had arrived the previous months. Which was
awesome!!
It ended up being a day from hell in the airport – my flight
was delayed 4x at XNA so I ended up sitting at XNA for 4 hours… and missed my
connection in Dallas. Finally got to Dallas, was on standby for an earlier
flight and didn’t make the cut. More flight delays in Dallas due to
maintenance, then we switched gates and I was finally on the plane to SF! The
flight was pretty low key until we landed and the pilot said “everyone stay in
your seats as law enforcement is entering the plane.” WHAT??? A few seconds
later, cops started down the center aisle and arrested a guy sitting in the row
in front of me. He was fighting back, yelling “they are going to kill me! Save
me! Don’t let them take me!” and acting like he was having a panic attack. The
guy was a pretty big man and they were having a hard time getting the handcuffs
one. About 7 minutes later, he was off the plane. Whew. I mean what an end to a
crazy day!
Tripp met me at the airport and at first they thought the
lost my bag because the AA worker thought my name was Kitty ;) I was so ready
to get out of the airport. We rode BART home and then went to bed.
Poor Tripp had been sick the days before I got there, so he
was not feeling well whatsoever… and of course I caught it a couple days in. So
lots of huggin happening with team Hollowell this trip haha!
