I highly doubt my stuff will get replaced. Someone stole it out of my purse. It's already been a week. :(

OK...now it says she'll arrive at 10:47 p.m.
Poor thing!
Good thing I'm making my special spaghetti, bread and wine for dinner! A SUPER late dinner....

At this rate, she'll get there just in time to leave!!!
Staci must have signed up for the "Senic Flight" -
including the Airport Sight-Seeing Tours!
She started out in Dayton - then went NORTH to Cleveland.
Which way to California?
SOUTH, of course ~ to ATLANTA
She JUST Called - From PHOENIX, AZ!
10:10 EASTERN Time = 7:10 California Time
She gettin on America West 480 ....
Due into Burbank "about" 9:00 PM California Time.
/s/ Phred
Ya, just heard from her. ;)
Aparently I thought what Delta's site showed was accurate. Silly me! And...I didn't fully understand "re-routed"...ha ha
Now I have the correct flight up on the web.
;)
:confused:
Dunno HOW she got to PHOENIX ???
Her DELTA Flight 1171 was "supposed to" take off from ATLANTA
and fly Direct to Burbank ...
?? Maybe Delta ran outta gas over Phoenix??
As I type this - America West 480 has NOT taken off from Phoenix.
***Uppydate: 480 HAS taken off @ 9:38 :)
The AW site says 480 is DUE into Burbank
Gate A5 at 9:08 PM California Time (12:08 AM EASTERN Time).
She's supposed to be on an Airbus A320 plane - with NO food! :(
Site says they're gonna Fly FAST - New ETA = Early @ 8:59
:rolleyes:
They LIED!
America West 480 was 52 minutes LATE taking off ...
The site NOW says it Departed at 8:30 - with a
New Arrival Time in Burbank of 9:51 PM (12:51 AM Eastern time).
:rolleyes:
:confused:
Wonder where Staci REALLY is??
America West is tellin some Tails on the Flight Log ...
For a while it said 480 had "DEPARTED" - first at 7:38;
then it was "DEPARTED" at 8:30 ... (which would have been a hour ago ...
NOW they say "ESTIMATED" DEPARTURE WAS a HOUR AGO @ 8:30 ...
but that's not confirmed.
:confused:
Talk about a late dinner! At least she can sleep in tomorrow! Staci is going to be exhausted!!!!!!! :eek:
:eek:
Staci is STILL *sittin* in Phoenix!! :mad:
Da Plane is **BUSTED**! :(
Reservation Dude says HIS puter has an "ARC" code showing
for Flight 480 - means "some kinda mechanical problem". :rolleyes:
To further confuse things, this week Phoenix is on Pacific Time -
SAME time in Phoenix as in California.
So the "promise" is Staci is "supposed to" be taking off in about
10 minutes - at 9:15 PM Pacific/Phoenix time (12:15 Eastern time).
Actual Flight Time is an Hour and a half to Burbank.
Wonder if they brought in any PeaNutz ta pass out?
/s/ Phred
I think we should send for Glacier and the dog taxi they could get her there faster.
Poor Staci! Jeez...You'd think it would only take 5 hours or less to get to California from Ohio in a direct flight. Seems like the poor thing has been travelling ALL DAY. :( First Georgia??? That's flying in the opposite direction. Poor Staci. Hope she arrives soon safely, and isn't TOO tired!
:cool:
Both the automated voice response system and the web site
are now reporting Staci's Flight 480
DID take off at 8:55 pm (Pacific/Cali/Phoenix Time) (11:55 Eastern).
Flight Time = 1 hr + 30 minutes ...
Arrival in Burbank is between 9:21 and 9:25 pm California time.
Wonder where her LUGGAGE is??? :p
OMG! I just got your message, Kelly. I'm supposed to be on a conference call with my India team right now, but everyone is running late it seems. *sigh*
Poor Staci! What an ordeal to get out here to CA! I hope she arrives safe and that you're feeling ok, Kelly! No pains allowed! ;)
I can't wait to see you guys tomorrow!
**hugs**
Karen
Cass, I am really so sorry to hear about your wallet and identification being stolen. That is so upsetting for anyone. Thank God your paycheck wasn't in your wallet.
Now, I am hoping that you can talk your b/f into driving down....I know it isn't a short trip, but I know that you have been looking forward to this and having a chance to meet so many Pet Talkers.
Please keep us posted on what you decide.
Poor Kelly has been calling the house.........I feel so awful because she is exactly a one half hours drive from the airport in Burbank to my house. So if she drove over - she would just have to turn around and drive back in time to meet Staci.
Seems many airlines are having difficulties.
What no one knows is that poor Mruffruff is stuck at Dulles International Airport. I got a phone call from her sister in law and Mruffruff won't be able to get a flight until tomorrow evening.
I have no way to contact her and we were barnstorming on how to contact her and connect her with Laurie's family so at least she would have a place to stay. But it was already past 11 pm on the east coast and a tad late to make those arrangements with anyone. I feel so awful for her - she hasn't traveled in years.
And here is Staci - well, let's just GET HER HERE and safely.
But what an ordeal she has had.
Last I heard, Kelly was buying a really BIG book to keep her busy at the airport while she waited.
And here I was feeling so cocky that so many have arrived already and even a bit early on their flights.
More later............we are having a "girl's" night..............and the laughter level is pretty high:D :D
:cool:
America West *finally* picked up the phone -
the Status Puter has three times that indicate Staci "took off" --
Pull-Back from the gate @ 8:55
Qued on the Runway @ 9:10
"Wheels Off the Ground" @ 9:14 ~
they "should be" In the Air! (FINALLY! :p )
They're still gonna Fly Fast to Arrive at Burbank @ 10:21pm - Gate A5.
Be sure to ask her HOW she got from Atlanta to Phoenix!??
/s/ Phred
:D
Well, America West says Flight 480 has "ARRIVED" @ 10:19 ~
so we HOPE Staci has also arrived in Burbank!
Now, about her LUGGAGE ... :confused:
:D
STACI IS HERE...........ON THE GROUND IN CALIFORNIA AND
W I T H
H E R
L U G G A G E!!!
Kelly is now driving her back to her apartment and they are going to EAT real food.
Guess Staci is a bit tired of pretzels as a main meal!!
I know they will post more when they get back to Kelly's............
but we all got excited that she is safely here!
YAY - Welcome Staci!!! (finally)
Funny, when you FLY for business - the plane is NEVER delayed, .......... but just try FLY for pleasure ......... ??? :D
I have all my directions printed out, all packed up, now it's time to sleep and then I'm headed out bright and early tomorrow!
;)Quote:

Answer:
She never GOT to Atlanta!
Dayton to Cleveland;
then a Change of Plans - "We'll send you to Phoenix!"
Then SHE "broke" the plane in Phoenix! :p
Glad ya made it ~ Now Have **PHUNN**!
:D
Sorry guys, we had to eat first! ;)
But we're back and Stace is FINALLY on California soil...well, apartment. She's taking a luxurous bath right now, while Noah calls to her from outside the door. Silly boy.
We're SO sleeping in tomorrow!!!
We'll call you when we wake up, girlies! Enjoy your "girls night"!!
Hugs,
Kelly & Stace
Was Mary flying on Indepedence Air? I hate that she is stuck at Dulles!!!! Gini, keep us posted on her, too. Poor thing.
Logan
Good morning, Slick and Laurie have been giggling all night...........but Rascal conned them into feeding him nice and early.
Tonya, the wise girl is still sleeping. Or maybe she is hiding!
Logan, I haven't heard anything from Mary and I am worried about her too. I just hate to think of her at that airport all of this time. I will post just as soon as we hear something.
But as you can see we now have Staci settled in with Kelly
with a little "wine?" under her belt. Oh Oh!
We will keep you posted as the days events unfold.
Glad you made it, Staci!
Have fun everyone this weekend!!!
Seems like poor Staci who had the most trepidation about the flight was the one who had to deal with all kinds of things. After this trip, at least she can feel she has been there, done that, and YAY...can handle anything.
Any word on Mary?
So glad Staci FINALLY made it and got some supper!!! I get really cranky when I'm hungry myself!!!
I hope you all find Mary and she gets there now.
Have fun dudes and dudettes!!!:D
Keep us posted, especially on Mary's progress (hopefully - instead of lack therof).
*yawn*
OK, we're up! Stace is about to shower....then I supposed I'll go next. Some breakfast and then, here we come Tonya, Gini, Slick, Laurie and Richard!!! ;)
We're stealing Tonya, BTW. We have an important date with some bunny wabbits!!
Just got a text from Laura, they're making great time and are already in Blythe, CA!! :)
YAY!!! :) :) :)
10:30 am - no word from Mary as yet..................
Her sister in law said she had a flight out of Dulles THIS EVENING.... so we may not hear from her for a while.
Slick just finished prepping the chili for tonight.
Then I guess Kelly is stealing everyone away and Richard will help me set up the back yard this afternoon.
Now - MARIO!!!!!
There are cherry pits all over my house - do YOU know anything about that?
Wooo hooo! The forces are gathering, like clouds before a storm ...
Hmmm, perhaps a less baleful analogy is needed ...
The forces are gathering, like turtles on a sunny log ...
Hmmm, perhaps a less peaceful analogy is needed ...
The Pet Talkers are gathering, like ... kids before the ice cream truck !!!
... like ants before the picnic?
... aw, make up yer own!
yyeeaa!!!
I am in Cali!!
exhausted!!! with a whole bottle of raspberry wine under my belt!!
my 1ish am post am posted under Kelly's sign in :)
must have been the wine!!!
just showered
Kel's in there now
I'm so glad that you finally made it to CA Staci.:) I hope that Mary will get here soon too. AmberLee is on her way to pick me up right now so I'll be leaving soon. So far our flight is on schedule so we'll be in LA very soon. I can't wait to see everyone on Saturday.:D
The forces are gathering like the clogs in Gini's drain!Quote:

Hope you all have a great time! I'm working today AND tomorrow. Don't you envy me? You'll be BBQing and chatting and relaxing while I have to be running around stressed at work, booo! Have some fun for me!
I expect lots of pictures!
I arrived in style, although tired.

In Chicago I got a friend immediately, we spent 3 hours together, as we had both missed our connections.

Since arriving at Sara's, I've been busy floating around in the pool, but we have been out and about too. :) This is when we visited San Clemente and had dinner at Fishermans. Great place! While waiting for our table we watched the surfers. :cool:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...5/P7080078.jpg
We also went to see the beautiful gardens of The Mission in San Juan Capistrano.
Saturday, I finally got to meet Gini. :) Her, Sara and I went for lunch at Shutters in Santa Monica. Wonderful setting!

Rascal must like visiting feet! I think Marius and Rascal would get along well! :p
LOL
**hugs**
Karen
Ha! Ha! What great pictures.
Rascal sure looks concerned over having a stranger in the house doesn't he? He must know you weren't really a stranger, just a friend he hadn't seen in purrrson yet!!! I wouldn't be surprised if he hadn't read some of your PT posts himself! :D
