I thought that I might catch both of my flights on time, but this is turning into a real annoyance. we're just pushing off the gate now, at 8:50, and my flight was supposed to leave at 8:00. This means that Helen is going to have to find a place to wait, and I can't call notify her that I am so delayed. I was hoping to get to bed a little early, but the night is going to wear on. We'll be up at around 5:00 tomorrow, so I have to stay relaxed. I worry more about Helen than myself, because she needs her rest for her graduation tomorrow. She is rather emotional about the whole thing, but I think she will settle down a bit once the ceremonies get underway. We'll be going to dinner in Quincy afterwards, and then drop her mom off. Then we'll go home to Marlborough.
[later] We just took off. Now I'll have to see if they have phone service on this plane at all. This plane is only three seats wide, and has no nifty services like music phones in the seats. I hope that Helen figures out to call and figure out what is going on with the flight. We may not make it to the garage in Cambridge on time to park there. I'm a bit stumped about how to rearrange plans now. We need to park someplace nearby. Hmmm... looks like we're being re-routed; I can see large electrical storms around us - there must be thunderheads out today.
[later] Looks like we might be delayed even more if conditions keep up. I hear that Logan is closed, and we might have to circle until things let up. I probably be out of the terminal at 11:30, if no added delays come up. It may be just way too late to get to the garage. Now who knows.
[later] Looks like the storm moved south, and we are coming in now, earlier than I expected.
[later] Looks like we'll be in Quincy a little after midnight now. I'm hoping that I actually get some sleep...
