we had nice leisurely plans for the day we were travelling from pennsylvania to michigan. they changed. at 10:30 we noticed for the first time that northwest airlines had changed me (and only me) to the earlier flight at 12:05 instead of 4:20. the later flight was overbooked. no way to change it back. the airport is 60 to 90 minutes away. so we jumped in the car and raced. we made it. carryon baggage only. the boys went to see the trains at roadside america without me. i got to see the really cool fountain in the detroit airport. it's not 4 hours cool. that will teach us to not check our itinerary updates carefully enough when travelling with small children and different confirmation numbers. bastards.
