Well and truly stuck
I won’t be giving away much of a clue to Rohan’s location if I say that to get here I flew through the Twin Cities, as one can’t fly Northwest Airlines and not fly through either them or Detroit.
However, tonight that means I am well and truly stuck in Rohan, because the Twin Cities got socked by snow and winds earlier today.
As “stuck” goes, though, this is a pretty sweet deal, even though Northwest isn’t paying my bill and I doubt I’ll be able to convince Rohan to do it. I snagged a hotel room for half what I thought I’d end up paying, and the wireless is fast and free. If I get to feeling ambitious, I’ll go out and forage for dinner—but with the winds what they are, I may just splurge and order in.
To Northwest’s credit, they rebooked me for flights tomorrow morning without any active intervention from me whatsoever, so if all goes well I’ll be home noonish.
I had a good interview today; I think people liked me, and I look forward to seeing several of them again at ACRL next month.
In other news, David passed his second Ph.D prelim this morning and is now officially ABD! (He won’t tell you, so I have to, because I’m very proud of him.) His dissertation proposal may have to be revised (ugh) because apparently an extremely recent dissertation may have covered some of the same ground—but we’ll figure it out, one way or another.
