bedlamsbardAnd I have tickets to return to New Orleans! I faffed around for two months trying to decide whether or not to go back early to help with move-in again, or just go back on time, and finally had the decision taken out of my hands today when I roused myself to try and sign up to go back early, only to find that the volunteer sign up form was down. Thus, I find myself now in posession of one (cheap! only $133 + fees!) ticket from Seattle to New Orleans via Denver on a Continental flight operated by United.
Naturally, my mother and I went through three separate credit cards before Continental's website finally accepted the fourth one, probably reluctantly. I am still not entirely certain how New York and I are going to get our boxes out of storage, since Chicago and, more importantly, her car won't be here this semester to drive us around, but I suppose New York and I will manage somehow. Will taxis take boxes out of storage? But that's a lot of money if one is paying by the minute... *sighs*
Well, at least now I know that I am getting back to NOLA somehow. And I have never flown through Denver before! I usually fly through Houston, since that's Continental's hub, and I have also flown through Dallas-Fort Worth and Atlanta, but never Denver. And the flight times kind of excite me, because it's not six hours sitting on one plane; it's three hours on each plane (well, two and three-quarters) and three hours on stopover, which sounds much easier. No food, but the food is not all that great anyway.
Now to go and buy my textbooks.
ETA: Naturally, in what is probably a cruel joke by the universe, the price of all my textbooks has gone up. Screw you too, universe.
