Last night I wrote about my first day of this weeks road trip and my hotel which doubled as a funeral parlor. Now it is Wed night and I am live blogging from the runway of DC Regan-National airport, on board a Delta flight which has been on this same runway and not moved for the past 2 and a half hours. 

I say I am live blogging this, but of course you are not live reading this.  That is because I have no way to upload this to my server.  You see the iPhone 3G for all the coolness, has no Internet sharing that I am aware of. My old windows mobile phone had Internet sharing and if I still had that you would be reading this live right now.  But no, not with the iPhone. 

I was scheduled to connect in Cincinnati right about now.  I am obviously missing that connection.  I was flying from there to Columbus and driving about an hour and half from Columbus.  I have a 9am meeting tomorrow.  So unless I feel like renting a car and driving 4 hours whenever it is I land, I am pretty much missing my meeting tomorrow as well. 

What to do?  a). Should I break out of this plane, run to the terminal and try to get on a flight home to Florida  b). Go postal or c). Grin and bear it and try to remember that I love what I do and that is what flying in the summer is all about (actually that summer thing is full of beans, it is no better in winter with weather either!).

So here is the update, we sat on the runway for 4 hours!  Finally took off and landed in Cincinnati at midnight. I had no connection.  Could not get a flight out in the morning, not rent a car and most hotels sold out. I am writing this from the coffee shop of the lovely (and I do mean lovely) Drawbridge Inn. I will miss my meeting in the morning and am booked on a flight home tomorrow.  Ah, the life of a road warrior!
