the easy day turned into a bit of irritation today. just had to deal with a *baggage* issue -- i won't bore you with the details, but airline customers and lost luggage is not cute. i thought i was doing something nice for the local folks to be able to get home early today and spending thanksgiving with their own families. oh well -- and to think, i was sort of feeling better!

anyway -- i'm in my hotel room in a distant city with no friends, no car, and no where to go for dinner. oh whoa is me!
