We have arrived in California in one piece, and the promised wireless at the hotel is actual wireless at the hotel.

I went and checked the little box on my ticket that said I wanted wheelchair assistance, and so I got it, no fuss. The lovely little Somali woman who took me through ticketing and security was fairly adamant that [livejournal.com profile] markgritter and [livejournal.com profile] timprov must be brothers, but this is a minor inconvenience. Checking the box in advance FTW. Because, seriously, folks, it was hard enough to deal with turbulence, takeoff, landing, the little train dealie to the rental car, etc., without having to haul my butt through airports pulling someone's arm out of his socket. Round and round and round. Uff da.

But the hotel is good, and soon there will be Cuban food, so there's that.

Hooray for getting there, and for asking for the help you need. Airports can be hassle enough without a disability.

I swear, flights have gotten worse as far as turbulence is concerned over the last few years. I'm pretty much done with flying unless I have no choice.

Alas, I only had room for my portion, so there was a whole black bean cake left over!

[livejournal.com profile] timprov finished my plantains, but I suspect that had nothing to do with you. :)

You have wireless? I had to get out the wire.

Also, the rental car lady asked if we were sweeties, so the confusion is apparent on both ends.

There now appears to be wire. I am muchly confuzzled.

i'm confused about why people keep asking you how you're all related/involved. Damn Californians! that never happens to me, and i'd be happy to tell anyone. :D i just sit there and WAIT for people to ask .... Are you married to that guy? ... and they never do.

*silly, silly, silly after beer*

Let me try this Homer thing again ...
