OK, far as I can tell, United's policy is they've gotta rebook me, and they've gotta put me up in a hotel if I'm stuck overnight, unless it's over an "act of god" type thing like a weather event. And the weather at ORD is looking just fine.

So at this point... meh. Barring some Kafkaesque bureaucratic runaround, they pretty much have to get me home on their own dime sooner or later. And hell, there's even a Hilton right at the airport, and I'm seeing bookings for it on priceline etc.

Meanwhile, I have my laptop, decent wireless and my mom's Netflix credentials, Peg's iPad, a copy of One-Deck Dungeon, a water fountain, and a bag of wasabi peas.

So I'm just gonna chill and try to enjoy this as much as I can. Currently in Akron-Canton, will update when I reach Chicago.
