Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving. My family and I went to two gatherings, both lots of fun with lots of food. :) I had fun playing with the various kidlets, plus Wayne & Vicky's 6-month old pup Kate who is so sweet and has grown so much since I last saw her. Mocha was pretty good yesterday too... he was as usual very excited to see Mark & Tita Marie when they stopped by. Oh! And at the first party, the gang surprised me with a (belated) birthday cake! Very cool and unexpected. :)
I was among the many travelers affected by the nasty weather in Chicago on Wednesday. I was originally scheduled to arrive around 4pm... my flight eventually landed at midnight and I got home around 2am. My original flight out of Albany was cancelled after we waited about four hours... I got re-booked (in first class!) on the next flight which was also very delayed. Then on our first landing approach into O'Hare we had to abort because another plane didn't clear the runway in time (doh). Finally we landed, taxiied for a while, I waited 20 minutes for my checked bag, trudged through the snow in the parking lot, and finally drove off around 1:30am. Fortunately there was no traffic at that time :) so I got home pretty quick. Anyway, I am glad I made it home safely and didn't have to spend the night at the airport!
I start my new assignment in Cincinnati on Monday (already - so much for downtime!)... I know some people there from the Chicago office so that'll be good. This is supposed to be a pretty short gig, too... six weeks or so. We'll see how it goes!
