{April 11, 2014}   Traveling to Atlanta its going to be a long one!

So you know everytime I travel to Atlanta or Boston its going to be a jam packed weekend and you don’t get to take a breath in between!

The day started like every other Friday that I head out of Michigan, I was making good time I already packed last night and then I got stopped at the front desk to catch up with Adriana, which was great, because I had a little extra time that I can talk to her. Headed to the airport got gas for the car return the car and then sat on the bus waiting to go to the terminal for a good 10 minutes, which is slightly frustrating since I gave myself enough time to do everything I needed to and get the terminal but here we are waiting and waiting and waiting for the driver.

I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to check my bag in because you have to be there for you 45 minutes prior to the flight for your bag to get checked. Well I got to the counter and was told that I had plenty of time because my 10 o’clock flight was now leaving at 11, I’ll be. I had gotten no notification from Delta that my flight was delayed until… I was walking away from my bag drop and I got a call from Delta my flight was delayed…they were waiting on the flight crew.  Um…

I decided I was going to have some breakfast because now I had the time, so I went to Chili’s and had one of the worst experiences. At one point, I called the manager over at told him basically that I didn’t feel like the waitress actually gave a crap about the people she was waiting on, my order was slightly wrong but I was going to eat it and I just wanted him to be aware of the situation. The nice thing was, totally unexpected, the manager comped my meal. I was hoping he wouldn’t say anything to the waitress before I left, but apparently he did, but only about me not getting the tea or honey I wanted. thank you.

Then I head to my gate, board the plane while talking to a very nice woman then sit and wait and wait and we took off only 2 hours late, great!

The nice thing was that the fligt was only 1.5 hours. we land about 1:30 and the people with connecting flights fight to get past the people clogging the aisle and the woman next to me didn’t have a connecting flight, just someone waiting for her, isn’t that special, here, please Walk over me to get out!

off to car rental to get my rate of $30 per day, then add taxes, fees and Charges and my $60 turns into $146! Really?

I leave in my suv to go Pick up SDL’s sister,DJL. I drove her to SDL’s house then I drove to my house and found my Favorite shoes!!!

Off next to drop off my taxes to my tax people, I had scanned & emailed them but never heard back so I thought I Would drop them off. There was a cancellation so they were able to take me. It took about 45 minutes and I’m getting money back, Wahoo!

But wait, there’s more!

I drove to Ansley Mall to meet CKM, we were going to go to The Nook but the traffic around Piedmont park was crazy because of the Dogwood Festival so we turned around and went to Bantham & Biddle, very tasty.

After dinner, we walked across the street to Smith’s Olde Bar to see JMB’s band Bahnhof. They were interesting..Had a European fee|, a German/RusSian vibe. original and different.

Then why figured out why I was miserable, tired, sneezy and itchy eyed since I landed…duh! Allergy season in Atlanta! Save me!

Headed to the hotel to get Some sleep after I finish writing to you.

Mud run tomorrow! Need rest! Goodnight!
