oh hello denver, i’m inside of you right now.
during my travels home today from san francisco, my flights were oversold. in oakland, i thought too long and missed my shot at the free voucher (and an extra day in the bay, which was my goal all along!). i was kicking myself over the sierras; imagine what that $200 voucher would have meant? i mean, that was the ticket to make my way to california for good.
when i got to denver, i hoped i’d have the same opportunity, and i did. at first i refused it; i didn’t want to get home the next day, and feel even further behind, and i talked myself down off the ledge. but, when she announced it again, and said it was $200 PLUS the face value of my ticket and they’d cover the hotel? i heard this little voice in my head saying this was something being handed to me and that it was the universe pushing me towards what i want to do.
so, here i am in a (pretty decent!) holiday inn. i knew a king size bed had to make an appearance at some point on this really awesome vacation. i have $342.60 in southwest vouchers and i don’t have to unpack/repack my bags. plus, it’s less time in philadelphia! no brainer all around.
universe, thanks. i get it. maybe i’m not on the wrong track. maybe i am right about some things. however, i’m still kind of bummed about getting older with nothing to show for it.
