Enough to make you want to Fly

So I left Carolyns house at 9:00 Sunday morning to go to the Airport in CHARLESTON. I had a pretty screwy schedule that day. I bought 2 seperate tickets and it ended up saving me like 200 dollars (in hindsight not worth it). The first ticket was from Charleston to atlanta to phoenix and the next was from phoenix to salt lake to boise. So when I checked my baggage in I only checked it into phoenix and I would have to pick it up there and go and check it back in. Anyway my flight from charleston ran a little late (40 min) which made it so that I was walking off the plane just about 5 minutes before my flight was taking off. I had to change my flight all around and the Delta people were oh so happy to help. After about 20 minutes and changing my flight 2 times they finally got me on a plane to slc. I completely by passed phoenix. They made it so that I could make my original flight out of slc to boise. I arrived at the airport in slc at 4:30 and my flight for Boise was leaving on time at 7:36. The next thing you know my flight gets delayed to 8:30. About 40 minutes later it gets delayed again to after 9. At this point I really just want to get home. Not just that I find out that I have to fly standby and the flight is booked due to a cancelling of another flight. Around 7:50 I still dont know if they are actually going to let me get on the flight when we are told that our gate has moved to c9 to b4. I hike my take end there and I wait for about 10 minutes until I am told that they dont know why they send us here our real gate is c3. Back I go to c3. I go and sit there for about 10 minutes until I am told that our gate is in its perminate spot at c11. just one gate down from my original gate ugh. I hustle so I can be the first in line to see if I get a boarding pass. I am so lucky to get on the flight. I finally get into Boise at 10:16. But of course my luggage doesnt make it here. I had to make a claim on it. They told me that it would be delievered tomorrow (which thankfully it was). Needless to say, I didnt get home until midnight. So if you count it I was traveling for a total of 16 hours. but I am finally home and boy did I miss my family. And everyone is extremely happy to see me.
