O'Hare-stayed

So we're stuck at O'Hare airport in Chicago. It is snowing and zero-degrees outside. Everyone is cranky - the kids are crying and the adults are bitching - and the boredom was enough for me to pay (!) for use of internet in the airport. So here we are...

You know what is disgusting - watching people eat in airport food courts. Watching (seeing) people eat is usually bad enough when they're not in such a hurry. The crumbs fly. Condiments drip from moustaches. Hurried conversations spew forth from mouths full of half-chewed food. Meanwhile, shitty John Tesh muzak blares incessantly in this the city most-famous for its blues music. Other than that, it's a pretty kick-ass airport. Now if I could only get the game on around here...

Apparently United lets you take your pets in board with you. This morning we had two lap dogs, which sent a few kids into hysterics... for the entire flight...
