d-list celebrity star power

lax was out of control today. thank goodness i beat my previous record time getting to the airport from ventura. i clocked 53 minutes this morning!

but i digress.

there was a major clusterfuck in the skycap area ... if you bring a 150 lb. bag, expect problems ... oh woman with the red duffel bag, what were you thinking this morning? i sniffed ... it wasn't a dead body, but i mean really, even i, the queen of luggage, has yet to pack a bag that weighs over 100 lbs. it really threw the skycaps for a loop. apparently, the three stooges on the curb in front of terminal 4 were absent the day "heavy loads" were addressed.

so, after waiting 25 minutes to have my one, slightly over 75 lb. bag checked, i walk into the rapidly growing first class security line and see BOB SAGET, of Full House fame, walk in to the terminal looking a little confused. he was then taken out of LINE so some fan could check him in promptly and he could get on his merry little way. so let me get this straight, if i was a washed up hasbeen of an actor, i could bypass the line? wow.

tried to get photo documentation, but needed third arm, or butler to be successful. since i have neither, you can imagine where that left me.

now the waiting game. is BOB SAGET traveling to orlando this morning? does he have a lunch date with mickey & minnie? is he in seat 1F? if so, this could get interesting ...

stay tuned.

ps. i do have patience. regardless of what moe the skycap says. i know it's dangerous to complain outloud to a skycap BEFORE he takes your bag, but i can't stand inefficiency. i mean, i can totally wait if people aren't being stupid, but when they are, refer back to 150 lb. bag girl and guy in front of me who just couldn't find his ID, but it's really hard to suck it up. i hope the $10 i gave him gets my bag to orlando.
