Today took the cake - the gate agent opened the boarding area right in front of me at LAX, and yet I still counted seven men who tried to trample me and two who were actually successful in pushing me aside!

I was wearing a 'young' outfit today - skirt with black tights and black loafers, and a black pea jacket, which makes me look younger than I am....
