Next time you go on a trip, REMEMBER to read over your itinerary carefully ahead of time. Don't just check the time of your flight. Check the date. Make sure that, if you THINK you're booked on a flight on Monday morning, you don't show up at the airport early only to be told you're REALLY booked on a flight for Sunday, the day before. 'Cause if this happens to you, you'll be really, really bummed. Especially if it's 7:30 in the morning, you can't reach anyone in your office or the travel agency, or the people who are supposed to pick you up in a few hours.
And if it happens to you, don't say I didn't warn you.
And that's all I'll say for now. I ended up in Alberta, all-be-it at a different city than I'd planned, but I'm here, some appointments could be arranged (yes, I made it onto the evening news in Red Deer), and now all I can do about it is laugh.
Tomorrow I fly to Abbotsford. Yes, I checked the date. I am DEFINITELY booked on a flight to Abbotsford tomorrow.
Sweet dreams.

Oh goodness (she said while trying to stifle a laugh) I know I really shouldn't laugh, but can't help it. It is funny NOW - right?
I went to a work conference a day early once and wandered around the hotel the next morning looking for the breakfast meeting. When I went to inquire about which room I was to go to I felt rather foolish when the desk clerk told me the conference didn't start until the next day!!! I must admit that I did have a fun day shopping though.
Isn't life a blast? Keep smiling.
Oh, that must have been frustrating! But I have to agree with Cuppa this it is kinda funny!
Hope you are having a good time. A good time for a business trip, anyway.
Oh my goodness.. What a shock that must have been. Believe me.. I will be double checking any future tickets.
oops.
wish i could have watched the news
Those Albertans must be desperate for news. "Winnipeg Woman Misses Plane." What was the interview like? Did they ask you why you missed it? (hee hee)
