hey look! i didn't die!...

yay! i'm back from indy! actually, we got back monday nite...i've just been too lazy to post about it :)
anyway, the trip was really great. i got to meet all of rob's family, and spend time with them, and eat a lot of really good food (his mom is an awesome cook!) and watch some really bad t.v. and see real snow! that pretty much sums up our entire stay there really.
nothing too spectacular happened. well, that is, after we got there. it was getting there that has a story of it's own.
we were supposed to be taking off from DFW airport at 5:10p.m. on friday. so rob and i get to the airport about an hour ahead of time, check in, go through security, etc etc... so we get to our terminal and find some seats to just chill out til the plane arrives and stuff. so time goes by and we're noticing that there isn't a plane at the gate, and it's about 30 minutes or so before take off. so we check the monitors and they say that our flight is still "on time" so we return to our seats. about 20 minutes or so before take-off, the intercom comes on and informs us that our plane is still in memphis! so they were going to "try and find us another plane" which makes absolutely no sense. anyway, to cut an entirely too long story short, they moved us to another gate for holding, and at one point decided not to give us any updates what-so-ever for about an hour and a half, and then, four and a half hours after our original departure time our plane arrives from memphis (the poor people on that flight had to stay on the plane for 45 minutes because the gate was over-booked with other planes boarding), and we finally got to depart at about 9p.m. or so.
luckily, the trip back was less than uneventful.
anyway, i've got some pictures that i will be posting at some point. i was actually brave and sat by the window on the plane so i have some pictures from the air that are pretty neat.
anyway. i've gotta go grab some grub and then back to finishing up some math homework so i don't fail my course. later!
