Hello from the Las Vegas Airport

I ran two more times this week for a grand total of 3 runs and about 10 miles. Pretty pathetic but I do horribly with elevation.

We are sitting in the Las Vegas airport. Actually we have been sitting here for about 4, maybe 5, hours. We miscalculated and thought we were going to be able to standby on an earlier flight. Big bummer and its making for a long, boring day. BUT we have heard some very amusing conversations. First there was the girl who must have called everyone in her phone to tell them how she had been bumped off 3 flights to Chicago, her parents sucked because they weren't going to pick her up at the airport at 11pm and drive her to go out with her friends (ok so one of the phone calls was actually to her parents who she told not to pick her up), that the police had been called to the house this morning because the maintenance guy she had called to bring over an AC/heat filter (I assume like the $1 ones you pick up at Home Depot and install once a month??) had been dumb and used his key to bring it inside when nobody was home, …ok you really had to be there but the whole story that she kept repeating and repeating included a swear every other word. Then there was the girl who also called everyone in her phone to tell them about her random hookup the night before. I could go on but the plane is here and my battery is about to die. But there was another good moment when the lady behind us was watching the Stanley Cup and trying to figure out why Carolina was wearing red instead of blue (she then told her daughter how she went to UNC and they always wear blue so this must just be a substitute outfit).

Pictures and trip recap to come.
