My husband, my friend, my soul mate is trapped on the East Coast due to snow - he went on Tuesday - the first run in my Metro excursions - and was snowed in last night. So I stayed home with my dogs, waiting until they dig out their world in NJ. They didn't - they got more snow.
I got up this morning to a snowy rural outside - it's beautiful! except its heading towards the East Coast - and they got some 17 inches overnight in NJ and caused the husband, friend, soul mate's flight out this morning to be cancelled . He says maybe he can get a flight out tonight - but we're getting snow here now and the flights might be cancelled due to that! And if he doesn't get out then, they're supposed to get more snow overnight, into the morning, and then those flights will be cancelled as well...He could have driven home by now (except the snow is too deep and causing back ups on the expressways)...
He's not a happy camper in NJ. He only had enough clothes for an overnight trip. No book to read, no work to do, no computer to work on, and no me. He can't even get to the casino's in Atlantic City to gamble (if he gambled, which he doesn't) so he is bored! He is not happy doing nothing. Unlike me - I would be all snuggled in the hotel, getting room service (one of my favorite things to indulge in, next to going to the spa!) and watching TV. So, hopefully he'll come home tonight - and I'll make the Metro run for the 942pm arrival time. I'm betting he's going to be a NJ man for one more night...but he is on the way to the airport right now(or trying to anyway - it took him 3 hours last night, and he was going the speed limit - he's going 15mph per his last phone call!). hopefully there will be flights leaving Newark and he can get a flight out to anywhere. I hope he's not gong to be sleeping at the airport tonight, and be even more BORED. Althougth in an airport, it's the best place to people watch (another fun thing to do...) but he jsut glares at the flight boards daring them to change...Let's just hope he can get a flight out to somewhere and then fly home here. He needs to get out of NJ...
I wrote last night until 2am - or is that considered this morning, if you haven't gone to bed yet? What ever. I am up and writing again, until I get the call to head out in this snow, to go on my long two hour run to Metro. Maybe I will anyway, I love to people watch...but due to security, I can't get through, and will just be forced to do the loop - going around arnd around the McN terminal...yeah, that's not fun. I think I'll wait for the call to come and get him...
So, I will sit and write until the NJ bored man calls and lets me know what is up, what is happening and what time he's leaving - if he is able to leave and come home to me...
