Yesterday everything went wrong on my trip to the airport:

1. The subway was late.
2. Then the subway switched to stopping at every station.
3. With those problems, I jumped off the subway and figured that I’d hail a ride.
4. But there was heavy traffic where I got off the subway, and it took 35 minutes to get a ride.
5. Then the car got stuck behind a slow-moving bus.
6. Then traffic on the highway came to a standstill.
7. At the airport, I got randomly selected for additional screening.
8. At the airport, I went to the gate on my boarding pass, but the flight had been moved: to a different terminal, accessible by bus (unless I wanted to go through security again).
9. I had to wait for the bus and deal with slow-moving passengers.

But, believe it or not, I arrived at the gate right as my group was boarding.

So a 30-minute trip to the airport turned into an 80 minute trip and everything went wrong, but I still made it.

Anyone else have a good “I shouldn’t have made that flight but I did” story?
