I know my way around ORD, DTW, ATL, RIC, SFO, and PHX pretty well. Saying I know my way around tiny airports like AZO and BUR kind of feels like cheating.
Man, just ascend already.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I'm fluent in PDX and SAN. I can fake SFO pretty well. PHX was easy but frustrating last time I was there. I think I know it but I still resent it.
Oddly, last time I landed at PDX we were farther down in the terminal than I actually realized the terminal went. I blame flying with a migraine but my seatmates were talking to me as we walked to baggage and I sort of thought we might never get there or see anything familiar. Then it all went fuzzy, resolved and I suddenly knew exactly where we were. Seriously, there were banks of chairs that I'd never seen. And then the heavens parted and I saw the signs for Good Dog, Bad Dog and Powells. I was home.

Oh, the situation absolutely sucks.
So long as you are very clear that you, msbelle, do NOT suck.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
I know my way around ORD, DTW, ATL, RIC, SFO, and PHX pretty well.
In addition to DTW, and DCA, BWI and IAD, I'm fluent in ORD, ATL, JFK, EWR, MSP, MEM, LAS, CDG, FCO, MXP and SUF (though SUF is little more than two runways and enough tarmac to park 2 planes). I can passably get around in PHX, DEN, CLT, MCO, SFO, SJC, SLC, SAT, AUS, and LAX.
I don't think I suck, I think it sucks.
Just keep reminding yourself of this. In fact, I need to remind myself of this.
Sleep is for the weak. Or those unafflicted with insomnia.

Sleep is the nectar of the gods. The bastards just hate sharing.

Non-sequitur:
Flashpoint is really, really good. It's filling the Criminal Minds-sized hole in my genre-based matrix of tv viewing. (CM hasn't been anything better than "meh" for me this season. Last season's offscreen drama appears to have taken a toll.)

And we can't steal it either. They're capricious bastards liable to punish the attempt by condemning us to a lifetime of sleeplessness.

Sadly I did not win the megamillions--but it's up to $170 million for Friday's drawing. So we could yet have buffista island!

Erin, lighters are allowed as a carry-on item.
THAT IS AWESOME NEWS!
Of course, my layover is 45 minutes. Curses. I am EXTREMELY efficient, though.
No smoking lounge? In Detroit? That's crazy-talk. Ah, well, I have tic-tics, and now I can can fire. Makes up a little for the weapons.
Woke up at 3:45. Go team (YAWN) me.
msbelle, you do not suck. The employers you have had sucked. Trust me.
Ok. Off to storm the castle, folks.
