I am trapped in New Jersey
« on: December 19, 2008, 08:00:42 PM »

No flights today (had one resheduling and two cancellations to my name so far... all five flights to TO were cancelled today).

All flights overbooked for tomorrow.

All flights overbooked for sunday, with possibly another giant snowstorm causing further cancellations.

No guarantees for monday.

All trains and buses are booked, or cancelled (actually all trains and buses north were cancelled today).

My agenda for tomorrow is to go hang around the standby queues at Newark for 12 hours.

I even asked if I could get a flight that goes through random connections that pinball across the US, so long as I could actually get a confirmed listing. No dice.

LULZ!

I am no longer trapped in New Jersey and gained a +3 to my stowaway saving throws.

Here I am again.

You know, I think it's rather telling that the location of the office is so far away from ANYTHING (without actually being in the countryside, which would be nicer), that even the people I know FROM THIS STATE say I live too far away to see.

Or maybe it's just my breath...  :sadpanda:

This antiquated thread is now about the location of your body.

I don't want to count our chickens before they've hatched, but there's a non-zero chance that Julie and I will be relocating from Wichita to Norfolk, Virginia within the next couple of months. Anybody have any experience with the area? Anything we should know in advance?

Isn't Norfolk VA one of those GUMMINT R EVERWHARS locations? Like it's a huge federal civil service town?

My only experience with VA is Richmond and Fort Lee (mostly Fort Lee), and as such I have no clue.

Norfolk is a HUGE Navy town.  Carriers are based out of that city.
