Goodbye Pluto

I'm really mad about Pluto.  It's been my favorite planet since elementary school when I did a project on it.  Now it's not a planet.  Damn NASA.  No wonder they never sent me an information packet on Pluto that I requested, even though the rest of my class got theirs.

Another thing I thought about today is that a lot of people say the only way to heaven is to believe in Jesus, but I am one hundred percent sure that my aunt, who was Jewish, went to heaven.  Why else would there be a gentle rain the day after she died and a bright double rainbow immediately after her memorial service?  I know she's there, so I wonder what those people would say to that?  There's no one right answer and I think it's time they realize this.

Attention, this is a warning:  NEVER TAKE A SOUTHWEST FLIGHT THAT HAS A CONNECTION WITH ATA AIRLINES.

Yes, SWA is great, but this little known airline called ATA cooperates with them apparently, and they are the most horrible airline ever.  I had a connection in Chicago Midway w/ them to and from my college trip.  On the way there, there was a used puke bag in the seat pocket in front of me and i didn't notice it until a clear liquid started dripping on me!  And then the flight attendant wouldn't take it away right away, she just kept asking me what it was! 

On the way back, my flight was supposed to leave LaGuardia at 4:30 pm.  It was delayed due to storms in the area, so we boarded at 7 pm.  THEN we proceeded to sit on the plane for 2 AND A HALF HOURS with no air conditioning and every sit filled before we took off at 9:30. Our pilot kept explaining the situation, which just made everyone more mad because all the planes were going before us because of the "narrow airway."  And everyone was starving b/c we had all been planning to eat in Chicago's airport at about 5:30.  So they gave us two bags of pretzels instead of one.  HOW GENEROUS!

So I missed my Southwest connection, which left at 7:45.  At the gate, a man told me that everyone who missed the Kansas City connection was automatically rebooked for the 6:45 flight in the morning. (which we weren't, my mom had to call and book me).  I went to baggage claim, and of course they weren't there, so I went to the office.  They said that they were keeping them for the Southwest flight in the morning.  I could have requested them to be brought up, but I was fucking tired and didn't want to wait.  So I just accepted this, half-knowing they were lying, and sure enough my bags DID NOT come out when I got to the baggage claim in KC.  Luckily my aunt lived in Chicago, so I didn't have to sleep in the airport, but they had to leave for Cleveland the next morning so I had to take a cab to the airport at 4 am, during which I fell asleep, which was quite awkward.

I also had a forensics tournament that day at 1:15, which was supposed to be my only sleep-in day of the week, but instead I woke up at 3:30 am and got home at 10:30.  The tournament didn't help b/c it was extremely disorganized and they had double-booked rooms and it was hot and it just felt like I was in the airport all over again b/c everything was delayed and crowded.  The bus ride home was really fun tho and cheered me up.

Oh, the good old times...i remember going to kelsey's house just to play skip-it.  and i absolutely LOVED Alex Mack.  I seriously did like all of these.
