just my luck.

I don't know how I get so lucky regarding anything with airports! I have gotten pulled out of line in Honduras to get a bottle of baby powder tested for drugs, I missed my last flight to California from Utah because our gps redirected us to the wrong airport. We know our way to the airport, but for the fun of  it decided we'd use the gps...what a mess. Then I ran into the airport and had to go through security where to my surprise there was conveniently placed a bottle of baby oil in my carry on bag -that I did not put there. Yeah, I was in a lot of tears because that was the last flight to SD until the next day and a particularly hard week with school and everything in life, but the agent I talked to had a heart and she gave a me a free flight to Long Beach. Thank God!!! Oh gosh, then one of my flights out of Salt Lake City was delayed because they had to ice off the plane and when we arrived to my layover in Phoenix, AZ I got off the plane at gate 2 and had to make it to gate 40 in 2 minutes. Thank heavens that I courtesy checked my bag! I ran faster than a poodle on hot coals during mating season, on a leap year. I ran faster than the people who were running on the moving floor! hahah I got to the desk and the guy told me I was too late. They were literally closing the door...they couldn't just let me get in? Oh well, so they put me on the next flight for San Diego for free because it wasn't my fault that I was late. Now, this morning in the Orange County Airport, I went through the metal detector- nothing in my pockets- but because there is like little rhinestones on my pants, they had to pad me down everywhere and then swab my hands for traces of drugs. I was clean of course, but a bit worried because I hung out with a few of my crazy friends last night and who knows what could have smerfed off onto my hands. There I was waiting for my bags that are going through the x-ray and of course I had a bottle of beach sand that I scraped my knees up to get, and now they have to preform a drug test on that. It was just sand, but I was a little worried with that too because it's the beach, you know? It could have anything. Thank goodness that that sand was from Carlsbad and not Oceanside! hahah   I have a dream that one day I won't have any problems in the airport.
