I woke up at 1:00 AM (Mountain Time) to a text from Alyssa which began my morning of monitoring her chances at getting the flight. About an hour before the flight was to leave I determined that she was very unlikely to get a seat. I immediately began searching for a flight to buy a ticket and discovered that I could buy a ticket for that flight for about as good a deal as I could get any other time. I bought a ticket for Alyssa and she got seated with 15 minutes to spare. On the standby line she missed a seat by 5 spots (4 if you don’t count the seat I purchased).
I tried with little success to go back to sleep so this has been a very long day. I slept for 40 minutes after dinner after reading a story to Noah and before trying a Tinker Crate project with Isaac.
Once again I’m more firmly convinced that for financial and emotional reasons it’s time to find a better job.
