Got up at 3:00 AM (in California) because I wasn't done packing. Then the cab driver that took my call decided to pull the chute and never showed up, and the replacement guy kept getting lost. So I missed my flight, spent three hours at OAK wishing there was someplace to sleep :)

But then it all turned good: on my rescheduled hops I had first, the exit seat on an A319 with no seat in front of me so I could stretch my legs out completely, and then the second hop I had a whole row to myself. And at nightfall I was able to shoot some great video out the plane window of lightning in the clouds.

Yes, it's hot here :)
