I am an idiot.

Just checking items off the to-do list, which included doing a C&P SPG booking as part of a trade on CC. So I do the booking, and then call the hotel to add the other person's name to the reservation. Just as the phone starts ringing, I realize...

I just called HAWAII.

It's 9:30 AM here.

You can do the math. :o

The lady on the other line sounded quite lovely and awake, to her credit. Probably more awake than I am right now. :rolleyes: Poor thing.

My Mother used to do that to me when I lived in SAN. While the time difference is not as great as that of the east coast and HNL, having the phone ring at 5:30AM was still :rolleyes:.

Lost 32 miles but gained $300 - VDB and reroute to ONT. Got F on IAH-ONT and did not haz F on IAH-SNA.

Are you going to cab it to SNA for the return?

Sounds like a good deal to me. ^ How long do you have to wait for the turn in ONT? There is almost nothing in that airport, and nothing around the airport that you don't need a car for.

Your FM link in your signature is malformed; it's my.flightmemory.com, not myflightmemory.com. :-:

They were offering Super Shuttle and I told the redcoat to look at my record. He handed me F boarding passes for outbound and return from ONT. I could have probably taken the shuttle and moved to the later SNA flight, but I'd rather know I'm on a same plane turn since I have to work tomorrow.

Ah, ok. Mrs. Mackie and I are going to be in IAH (my sister graduates from UHCL on Sunday morning) and are tentatively planning on hitting up the Yardhouse.
