Sometimes Travel is not fun

and today was one of those days. I was to travel from Greensboro, NC to Philadelphia, a non-stop flight. One take off and one landing.

So I got to the airport on time for the departure, at about 1:30 for a 2:45 departure. Greensboro is a small airport, so there are rarely any line, let alone a long line. I was through security in a breeze and got to my gate where the sign said "Flight Delayed" with no estimated departure time.

So we sat and sat and sat. First, the flight was to depart at 4:45, then 5:30 then 6:15, until we finally left at 6:30. It seems the slightest bad weather (rain) just bogs the Philadelphia airport. On top of this, plane of the person I am to meet was even later, by an hour and forty five minutes.

Even though my cell phone is a PDA with email capabilities, there is only so much one can do on an itty-bitty keyboard. Well, there was 4+ hours of my life I will never get back.

College

C applied to several colleges and Universities. South Carolina, Elon college, Campbell, Ohio State, East Carolina, North Carolina Central and UNC-CH. I am not sure if I remember them all. She got accepted to them all. Now comes the fun part.

Her first preference is for UNC-CH, because of the programs available and A is there. but Ohio State and South Carolina are making a good push for her time as well. There are a couple of other factors that will play into this as well, but it is going to be an interesting two weeks of (in)decision.
