FETC – Going Home

Posted on March 25, 2006 By Tom No Comments on FETC – Going Home
Travel

Twice yesterday I’ve watched my collegues head out without me, and wished I were with them.  First was their trip to Emeril’s, with reservations at the same time as one of the sessions I wanted to attend, then again last night as they headed home.

When I made my travel arrangements, two things were going on.  I hate travelling at night.  Somehow I thought that their flights were later, and we could be getting in very late on either of the direct flights for Friday night or Saturday night.  I would prefer a Saturday morning flight.  Also, these plans were made right after Christmas.  I had my new video iPod.  I was now a travel commando with gadgetry to keep me entertained six ways from Sunday.  Layover in Atlanta?  No problemo!

So as I’m getting ready to head out at 6:45  this morning, hoping at best to be home by 3:00 PM, when I could have been home at 8:00 last night, I can’t help but wonder what the hell I was thinking.  Some travel commando I turned out to be.
