I am writing this from Atlanta … the flight from DC via Ronald Reagan National Airport was delayed 2+ hours because of weather in Atlanta, and I missed my connection to San Diego by minutes (I could see the plane still at the gate but the gate was "CLOSED")!   I think that means my seat was probably given away to some other stand-by passenger.

Anyway … I am on the stand-by list for the last fight out of Atlanta to San Diego.  I don’t think my odds are too good because I have very little miles with Delta.  But I do have a full fare Y ticket thanks to the U.S. Gov. 

I do have a flight confirmed for tomorrow … First Class (Delta trying to make up for missing my flight?) … but I’d much rather get home.

Having the EVDO and Google Maps is great.  I think I have a hotel lined up if I need it.

Well … back to waiting and praying I get on this flight …
