Of course, as stupid as they are, I have boarding passes in hand all the way to London and am sitting at my gate in Pittsburgh, so all the important stuff is fine. I left the office ridiculously early because I was afraid there would be some to-do over my ticketing weirdness, so now I've got about 90 minutes before they even start boarding. Anyway....
1. Cheaptickets.com very quietly and without actually notifying me changed my flights around. If I hadn't been such a squee-filled geek today obsessing over my trip, I never would have noticed that my flight to Dulles had been changed to two hours earlier than the one I had before.
2. I left my laptop cable at the office! GAH! I do have a 6 hour layover at Dulles though, which may be enough time for me to flee to a Best Buy and get another. And of course, I have a Mac so the only people that carry the power cables are Apple stores because Apple is just like that. If I had a PC I could have purchased a cable here at the airport. Or I shall just have to suck it up and disconnect myself from the internet (horrors!). My hotel roommate also has a MacBook and we can share cables when I get there.
3. I failed to pack a hairbrush. Have purchased a new one.
4. I chug-a-lugged my tea prior to going through security. After going through security, I dropped my travel mug and broke it.
I haven't flown since the nineties and crimini the Pittsburgh International Airport is dead. Last time I was out here, it was a bustling hub. Now it's this giant empty building. I got through check-in and security in a grand total of 15 minutes.
And now, must preserve precious battery life. I guess I'll have to read Hamlet or something!

Yikes! That is a bunch o' trouble given that you haven't left Pittsburgh! However, nothing critical, such as your copy of Hamlet being on your computer!
Buon Viaggio, carissima
