My attempt to catch the 4:30p flight back to Htown on standby was a no-go, so here I am sitting on the floor at DFW, waiting for the 6:50p flight to take me back home.

I’m going to pretend this floor is clean.

It’s pretty empty right now, but 35 minutes ago the terminal was full of businessmen yelling really loudly on cell phones.

Unlike the Atlanta Hartsfield Airport, DFW lacks outlets in the waiting areas…..which is why I’m sitting on the floor with my laptop plugged in and cell phone charging. It took me about 10 minutes to find this spot. People like me are scattered throughout the terminal.

The Muzak version of “Maneater” is playing. Sweet.
