DAMN the weather

Am I on a plane to NYC.....Noooo, I am back in Palm Springs.
I left this AM, got to LAX, saw that the flight was cancelled.....which they had not told me before I left. So they were no help at all, said they could get me to Chicago???? And maybe sometime tomorrow I could get to NYC via Wash DC. I said send me home....and then when I got back here they tried to screw me out of a refund.......I lost it, and of the $350 fare, I got $288 back.
I am SO mad that I am not going......I feel bad for my partner, he feels respondible cause he found the fare.....which is silly, not his fault....and now I am trying to figure out how he can use the tickets for Color Purple, which are, of course....here......ARRGH!

I'm sorry hun. I've had that happen with Hotel fares once. Cheer up though.

Oh, I'm SO sorry!

Call the theatre (or Ticketmaster if you bought through them), and ask them to reprint the tickets to be left at the box office. They can take care of replacement tickets for you.

Damn, damn, damn... that's such a shame.

brd......I don't have the orginal print out of the tix......they're in LA, ARRGH......I'm trying to call telecharge, so see if they'll let Steve and his sister go.....they can at least see he lives at the same address....

Sorry Elphaba.

I know you wanted to be there for Steve.

[NYadgal]

Posted: 2/11/06 at 5:28pm

They will be able to help you. Replacement tickets. I'm sure lots of people are calling about the weather and ticket related issues.

Also, please have a drink to calm you down!!!!!

I will have one with you if you want Elphaba? It is ot much help but it is the best I can do.

I should have given you my number - I actually live about 10 minutes from LAX. We could have had a drink here and bitched about the airlines.

May I join the party?

Maybe I'll mix a purple martini, since Elphaba has to miss the show.

The more the merrier!

We were just waiting for you Addy.

Maybe Elphaba will lead us in another sing-a-long.

...after a drink or two.

that is disappointing. i am sorry to hear that. it is clear that you were not meant to be in new york this weekend. it is maddening but remember it is only a show. now settle into a comfortable chair, have a relaxing drink and watch a movie you like.

[Elphaba]

Posted: 2/11/06 at 6:20pm

yes, Addy, please join us!

and that's what I'm going to do curly.......
it just wasn't meant to be.
