Airport woes.
Man I really hate airports. I hate the smell, and hate airlines, and hate those stupid plastic plates and forks, and nylon wrapped food. I hate checking in and I hate collecting my bag.
The thing is I hate all of these things and I didn’t get any of this time round. At least not in the way I expected., no it didn’t go according to plan, in any shape or form. I get to the airport, 2 hours earlier, as the damn ticket asked. I get up to the friggin counter and say ' Excuse me, but I don’t see any flights to Rome, at the time of my ticket.'
The lady behind the counter asks to have a look at my ticket, then after having a look at it she tells me my flight has already left!!!!! What the FUCK????? Is this some kind of joke because tell you what I was not laughing. Anyway turns out the damn flight got moved ahead, and I should have phoned to confirm my flight. The issue is that I don’t actually do that anymore after the damn airlines told me not to do it anymore. So anyway I spend 2 hours on my nerves waiting for an alternative flight, which was via Milan. Not bad, I got there on time.
My mini adventure was not to end there, one more surprise was awaiting me, no baggage was waiting for me. I could go on at how all manner of thoughts ran through my head as I tried to come to grips with the amount of stuff I lost. I even had to wet shave yesterday, which I’ve only ever done once in my life before.
The good news is that everything was in there, and all in tact. I didn’t have to haul anything anywhere, which is nice as well.
The bad news is that I’ve got to try and get some form of financial aid to get my damn computer since it’s going to be a painful exercise to pay for it in one go. The thing is that I was regected from the friggin financial aid by mesh computers because I was living in one place for more than 3 years. Such a shag. I mean seriously it just annoys me that I’ve got a great credit record and yet I can’t get 6 months free interest.
So I’m currently working off my laptop that doesn’t have a screen anymore, and it’s attached to this massive crt screen that takes up like 60% of my table. I’m still doing the number crunching to see if I’ve got enough for this month and the next if I buy the computer flat out.
