Could have driven it faster

Thursday, October 11, 2:22 pm: AIR TRAVEL SUCKS (CONT'D): Flight to Knoxville is currently showing a one-and-a-half hour delay.

Remind me not to fly again.
Thursday, October 11, 7:48 pm: WELL, THE POPULAR MECHANICS FOLKS FOUND US A HOTEL, so we're set up... On a trip where we actually only spent one day doing what we came to do, we'll have been in airports on four separate days...
Friday, October 12, 9:45 am: GETTING READY TO BOARD THE FLIGHT: Wish us luck.
Friday, October 12, 2:10 pm: PROGRESS: We're in Atlanta.
Friday, October 12, 4:58 pm: MADE IT HOME IN ONE PIECE: Today Delta got us everywhere on time, with no hassle.
