Grant and I are sitting in the terminal waiting for our delayed flight.
I am feeling crappy becasue the agents gave me a hard time about the contact solution I brought - I had checked online and it specifically listed contact saline solution as something I could bring. I left it sealed in its box, thinking that would help, and I went out to specifically buy a 4 ounce bottle (which by the way costs the same amount as a full size bottle...)
My big concern was if we missed our connection and I had to spend the night.
I told the lady I checked the website and it said the solution was fine and she said, "the key word is essential...is the contact solution essential?" I explained that the solution would be if my flight was delayed and I missed my connection, and she argued with me, 'Well, how do you know your flight will be delayed? Did they tell you it would?" You could tell she was irritated that I had brought it, but it was allowed so she wasn't going to stop me.
I just felt bad. I don;t like to push rules or limits m- I like to comply and be not a pain or a problem... I wasn't going to bring it. I have only had two instances when my contacts have gotten really dry on planes and I have had to take them out and soak them, but long flights or late nights tend to do it. I really just wanted to make sure - and the website said it was okay. I don;t know why I feel crummy. I just do.
Anyways...
I have this game called 20Q. I have a portable one, but you can play online at that link. I am addicted. I love this thing. It passes time while waiting here.
As of now, our flight is delayed, so we will miss our connection. They already rebooked us on a later flight so we;ll be getting into Fairbanks an hour and a half later.
