Frontier Airlines is not my friend

Seriously. Fuck me. To think I am the one who encouraged MOMD to go back to see his adorable son and family and bring back with him his dog that he had been missing terribly. What on earth was I thinking?! First the poor dearheart missed his flight Saturday morning. Traveling during the holidays just flat sucks. Traveling with a ticket marked 'special' (because his return flight involved bringing back his doggy, how in the hell that effects his flight out there with out the dog...I have no fucking clue) sucks that much more. So he was able to move his flight to later that day. And thankfully made that one. So he spends some wonderful time out there. Enjoying his family and his son. (While I miss him an insane amount at home, and have two completely sleepless nights...lol)

I beg him to make the earlier flight in Monday morning, this morning. He drags his butt out of bed at 2:00a.m to get to the airport on time, to prevent NOT missing that flight. I get a call at 5:00a.m my time..... He made it to the airport with little doggy in tow, in plenty of time. But. Yes. BUT the health certificate required for doggy to fly was misplaced. Oooooo....lovely. Luckily his Ex was willing to drive to the airport to deliver the health cert to him. (super DUPER nice of her, especially considering she is NOT a morning person, so I hear, bless her heart) Wonderful.

Oh wait. There is apparently ice....yes....in California (????) and the plane can't take off. Okay...... Flight is delayed.

And delayed...

And delayed.....

Oh guess what?! The crew has now been 'on' for over twenty-four hours now and can't fly. NOW they need a new crew to fly the plane. Huh. Give me a second here to vent.

Are you fucking kidding me?!?!?!?

So, now at THIS point. The flight MOMB was ORIGINALLY on (that yes, no need to point out to me, that *I* asked him to switch from....lol) has since boarded. And taken off. And is on it's way here. Meanwhile, MOMD and Doggy (poor little guy wondering what in the hell he signed up for) are stuck waiting for a plane to maybe or maybe not....board and fly home.

MOMD's laptop is dead. His cell is dead. I'm missing him something fierce. He's trapped in an airport that is only a mere two hour flight away. The next 'scheduled' flight in isn't until 8:00 tonight.

[sigh]

Insanity. Pure insanity. Is someone out there somewhere trying to tell us something?!?!!

See if I ever let him go anywhere with out me again. Humpf.

Update: His plane did take off finally at 1:00 ( you know...only SIX HOURS after it was supposed to!!!). I'm not holding my breath just yet. ~*~*~*Fingers crossed~*~*~ that doggy made the flight and everything from here on out goes smoothly. My god.....
