Ready, Set, Syria!

So things went from really bad, to really good. Since my last blog, many good things have happened.

Good thing #1
We were able to book a hotel room online and actually check in before a sea of people arrived at the hotel which was apparently already overbooked.

Good thing #2
I did get to eat pizza last night for dinner, and it wasn't half bad.

Good thing #3
This is where we really hit the jackpot. Apparently the woman that helped me rebook our flight yesterday felt so bad for us (remember, we got booted from BMI and were told this is a British Airways issue, then British Airways told us they can't help us and booted us back to BMI) that she rebooked us in First Class. Cha ching! Now I can feel rested and relaxed for the meeting of the in-laws (which is good because I was up until 3am again, this time playing brickbreaker on my blackberry and listening to my ipod to try and fall asleep.

Kristen Wotsch, I am thinking of you as I sit in the middle of Heathrow Terminal 1 staring directly at a lovely Burberry store.

And Robbie Baker, Talal is thinking of you, as he just finished his cappucino in the Platinum Club Business Lounge, courtesy of our First Class upgrade. You would be so proud.
