anonymoose_auOk, so my bro has neglected to say which flight he's coming on and when so I had to play a guessing game on when he'll arrive...turns out that I was wrong, and Mike was still working on the assumption for some reason that Mum and Dad would be getting him. So he called her, but as soon as he did his phone died!
So I rush off in Ol' Red to get him, Michael Dolly with the little Aussie Flag I drew in tow...I did eat my breakfast of egg first, which maybe wasn't a very good idea because when I got there I couldn't find him anywhere!
So, I figure I'll go see if I can find out if the plane from Toyoko that landed really was his and all that, but they don't do that anymore! Flight Information is absloutely classified and shit...great, just frickin' great!
So, I figure since he hasn't called Mum on the pay phone he mustn't have any money and is wandering around the airport...so I go and ask the Info Desk if they can page him...but aparently they don't do pages anymore, except for lost kids and emergency! Well, FUCK! What are you supposed to do if the person you need to pick up doesn't have a mobile! Some people don't have mobiles, you know, or at least don't take them overseas...I sure didn't! And what about people like my poor bro who's phone dies! What then? That is so screwed! What a terrorist is gonna do with a Page, I don't know...or flight information of a plane that already landed! I mean Ok he/she might use it if they're gonna assinate someone and need to know when they're coming in, but geeze! Like a famous person won't have all this security anyway! What a fuckin' wank!
Even worse, I'd forgotten my wallet! I have no money! How was I going get out of the $6 a half hour parking lot! Luckily I was an upset young woman so they decided to let me out without me having to pay.
But what a schmoozle! :'O(
11.42am Good news! My mother has just called me, as it turns out, Mike left his phone in Japan and was calling on a payphone and it was Mum's phone that was screwing up! But he went home to the Parentals to unpack his stuff...so I have to go over tonight for the Family Dinner.
Crap, I'm starving now...I'm gonna go out and buy some bread and a sausages for lunch!

Sounds like one of those days...
Date: 2005-02-27 04:06 pm (UTC)I can't understand about the page thing. Security is either too tight or none existent sometimes. I mean, I boarded two flights with a pair of nail clippers in my bag and they didn't say anything (even though the noticeboard said otherwise). Oops!
