Oops!

I woke up at 5:30 this morning and gathered my belongings together. I showered, packed my toiletries, ate a quick snack, threw my computer together and headed out. I made the bus just on time and things were looking good, I paid the fare for the airport (about 8 bucks) and sat back to watch the sun rise, timidly,through the windows of the bus. It was all going perfectly, not a hitch, and it was a good feeling.

I was riding past Tivoli when I see a poster advertising the production of Chess that they are putting on. This was the play in the 1980's written by Murray Head that gave us the classic "One Night in Bangkok." Hmmm, I thought to myself "I remember wanting to see that and I remember it had a two night run, the 30th and 31st. And I also remember....aww hell!"

It was at this point that it occurs to me I do not leave for Russia until the 1st. So here I am, back in my room, now confident, as a result of my dry run today, that I will be able to make it to the airport, on time, tomorrow.

Oops!
