So why did they keep me over through friday (instead of the wednesday I'd originally been staying)?
To interview a coworker-to-be.

Friday, a storm closed down her airport and she couldn't fly in. So I spent a lot of time... researching stuff I'd already researched.

Mind, I still love the folks I'm working with, and still look forward to going down to see them on Wednesday.
But holy hell, FUCK Chicago's weather.

Though if I'd left on weds or thurs, I'd be out 2 pleasing shirts or a very pleasing jacket, all on clearance (I didn't spend $40 on the lot).

All in all, I like this LA stuff. And I get to show cheezdanish and del_the_psycho a favored restaurant of mine, next week!

    You've done a fine job of pinning down interviewee's objections to her current locale.

  Oh God, yeah. Chicago weather is crap. I got caught there for about eight hours or so in December when we were flying back home. Admittedly, I should have expected that in Chicago in winter, but still.

    It's called BoHo. I'll turn up tomorrow night regardless, tho. It's been far too long since I've seen you!

  This is why I do not fly anywhere through Chicago or any airport in the upper midwest. :)

  Same storm had me and my travelling companion locked down in O'Hare for four and a half hours, most of that spent on the tarmac. At least our flight, though heavily delayed, finally made it out. I was expecting a cancellation after it was over two hours due with no new gate assignment.
  
  O'Hare can bite me. If I ever see that aiport again, it'll be too soon.
