Rules for air travel
1. Never book the last flight out on a Sunday.
2. Don't panic.

4. Don't panic.
Given that getting home before tomorrow night at 11pm involved running through two separate terminals, cutting into the "family and medical liquids" security line, and a $90 taxi ride from SFO to OAK,* I think that I am here at all counts as my good luck for the day.
*I got in the taxi at 12:10 to make a 1:05 flight. My driver earned that $15 tip.

And, yes, it was an adventure. I wish I could say this is the only time something like this has happened to me, but in point of fact it's pretty much every other trip or more frequently that I have weird problems which are usually solved by my running through airports.

Ugh, this is why I seriously prefer going by train -- yes, the ride itself takes longer, but it's just so much less of a hassle! (and you can take as much luggage with you as you can carry, which is a lot more than the usual 15-20kg limit). But then I'm lucky enough to live in a comparatively tiny country!
