I want to go home!



No standby seats from Adelaide to Perth yesterday and they are full today too. So last night after waiting all day for a flight, I found out that my suitcase had travelled off to Perth without me, along with my medications for keeping my brain chemicals reasonably balanced!


The plan was to get to Perth any which way in the morning. I looked for a hotel near the airport and tried to get some sleep before getting up this morning at 4am to catch a 6am flight to Sydney, then kick around the Sydney Airport for 4 hours or so till the flight to Perth was due.
.
That's where I am now, waiting. Only one hour to go. It's a big plane with lots of room so I am hoping there is one spare seat for little old me!


In international airports, why do they have so many chairs and no beds? I could really enjoy going with gravity and being non-vertical for at least 30 minutes or so!
Its 11.30 am in Sydney. Hopefully, if I get a seat, (staff are telling me it is quite full which is NOT good) I will be in Perth by 4.30pm. Then I'm heading straight for my own bed...aaah what luxury that will be!
I don't think I have the traveling bug! In fact I know I don't!


PS Excuse any typo's. I'm tired , grumpy and typing this on my phone.
