Day 3 – Still No Bags
Just a quick post…I still have no luggage and I’m going on my third day here in Anchorage. Thanks, United Airlines. And of course my coat, medication and work-related papers are in my suitcase (along with ALL of my other necessities).
And I got to experience another joy – I got to plunge my own toilet. Apparently the Fairfield Inn is a high class establishment – call and say that your toilet is clogged and they send up a man with a plunger. “Just leave it outside your door when you’re done.”
Not only that, but I was just blow drying my hair (using the hotel blow dryer, obviously) and the blow dryer ATE a large chunk of my hair. There’s a fan on the back of the blow dryer and a chunk of my hair got stuck in the fan – the dryer actually stopped running as the hair got wrapped around it. Seems like a poor desgin to me! So I had to turn off the dryer and pull the chunk of hair out, ripping it as it pulled out. Now I have a large hole in my hair, a sore scalp and the yummy smell of burning hair filling my hotel room.
Sigh…
