The Other Un-fun Part of the Trip

fauxkloreI am the sort of person who gets to airports early. That was particularly true in this case since, given the problems picking up the car, I had low expectations for returning it. (Which were partly played out. The guy checking in cars ignored me and went to the person behind me. When I went over and pointed out that I had been waiting, he didn't even apologize.)
When I checked in, I saw that the flight was delayed. It was supposed to leave at 6:46 p.m., but the monitor was showing 7:00 p.m.. By the time I got to Terminal B, it was showing 7:20, which then became 7:50. In fact, we left slightly after 8. Usually, you expect to make up some time on route, but we actually arrived a full 90 minutes after departure.
None of this is United's fault, but it explains why I was a total zombie all day yesterday.
