I'M IN AN AIRPORT

I had to show my passport/boarding pass to no less than 5 people to board my flight at LHR...yet somehow it was a very efficient, respectful process that didn't make me feel like crying.

i get to Nashville almost 2 hours late for my connecting flight because of bad weather in Philly, and the next flight i can get is (gasp) at 5:35 pm, meaning i would get into Oakand at 11 pm, and so i just went calmly and politely to the service desk and asked whether there was any way i could get to any airport in the Bay Area before 9 pm....and lo, the woman said, "this flight to my left is going to Denver, and then to San Francisco," and within 5 minutes i was on a moving plane. i tell ya, sometimes shit really works out okay! i'm now in my favorite airport in the US, drinking beer and smoking cigarettes, and molesting this free wi-fi.

ugh, but you're IN SAN JOSE. you might as well say, "i'm at the airport in assholeville."

Having arrived in San Jose when I did, I then immediately left for Monterey and Carmel.

In Montreal, watching the first rains from Irene sweep in from the comfort of the airport hotel bar.

At Midway, walking feverishly up and down the moving walkways because I am bored and overcaffeinated

Long beach is officially the shittiest airport I've ever set foot in.

I think there is about 500 ft btw security and the exit, with a gate in between!

tehresa, Monday, 12 September 2011 03:37 (twelve years ago) link

how could long beach be the shittiest when la guardia exists??

I was in an airport, CDG, and that was the closest I've come to missing a flight ever (delayed connecting train). Amazed my luggage made it with me.

At Denver. Someone is playing screams and spooky sound effects over the PA at random intervals today.

Flew home from Houston thru Pheonix today with the stomach flu. Not a good time. Destroyed one toilet stall at IAH, tho.

At Heathrow heading for St Petersburg via Helsinki. Temptation to try and sneak on to a flight to Miami instead is enormous.

Miss St.P, lived there for a while, returned every year for years. OK, maybe not best time of year to visit but...

my chauffeur boyfriend dropped me off several hours early, and jetblue won't let me check my bag until 7 (it's 4:30 now). wondering if it's a security measure or if they just don't want to run the risk of losing the bag. either way, i'm sitting in the waiting area, lamenting the lack of outlets.

the kids of boris midney high (get bent), Thursday, 22 March 2012 23:33 (twelve years ago) link

now they're playing heaven 17's "penthouse and pavement"! hippest airport ever.

first songs i heard in the terminal when i landed here were "black coffee in bed", followed by "everybody" by madonna

althea and (donna rouge), Friday, 23 March 2012 00:06 (twelve years ago) link

np: a fine young cannibals song i don't know

the kids of boris midney high (get bent), Friday, 23 March 2012 00:08 (twelve years ago) link

oh oh oh wait, it's them covering the buzzcocks' "ever fallen in love"!

the kids of boris midney high (get bent), Friday, 23 March 2012 00:09 (twelve years ago) link

jeez, this is a hip airport

the kids of boris midney high (get bent), Friday, 23 March 2012 00:09 (twelve years ago) link

np: english beat, "i confess"

the kids of boris midney high (get bent), Friday, 23 March 2012 00:15 (twelve years ago) link

Flying Southwest for the first time ever. Slightly worried, since my seat numbering thing is a fairly high number on the second tier and I dont sit well in the bitch seat.

Fortunately, I loaded up on Batmang at the library on the way here, so's I got enough to read on the way to Denver.

the kids of boris midney high (get bent), Friday, 23 March 2012 00:29 (twelve years ago) link

is "bang on the drum all day" a good song? i always associate it with z100 on friday afternoons (see also "take this job and shove it").

the kids of boris midney high (get bent), Friday, 23 March 2012 00:37 (twelve years ago) link

haha i totally have those same associations

althea and (donna rouge), Friday, 23 March 2012 01:08 (twelve years ago) link

i'm still in the airport. np: "who's zoomin' who"!

the kids of boris midney high (get bent), Friday, 23 March 2012 01:34 (twelve years ago) link

np, speaking of aretha: scritti politti, "wood beez (pray like aretha franklin)"!

(gonna be here until 9)

Man, sitting around for a few hours at Santa Ana/John Wayne was posh bad weirdness. Surrounded by Orange County types. No wonder PKD wrote disparagingly of that place.

I'm in an airport in boston

I think NECN just interviewed me on camera about electronic use on takeoffs/landings. I guess the Port Authority of NY is going to start fining people, so a reporter & a camera guy are here getting the vox pop.

Spleen of Hearts (kingfish), Tuesday, 27 March 2012 17:42 (twelve years ago) link

i will be in an airport (JFK -> BUR) in a couple hours! as usual, i'm dreading the JFK experience.

I'm flying virgin for the first time today. I'm in an airport.

It seems like there's a big school group on my flight. Maybe I should have chosen the main cabin select upgrade...

tehresa, Saturday, 7 April 2012 13:37 (twelve years ago) link
