As you can see by this pic of myself and Gary at the office, we’re snowed in. We got hit by a huge blizzard that smashed into Toronto this afternoon, which wouldn’t be such a big deal except that the two of us are supposed to be at Horrorfind in Baltimore right now, getting drunk and doing Ken Foree impersonations (which always tend to sound more like Dr. Hibbert from The Simpsons).
Our flight was scheduled to leave here at 4:50 this afternoon. Annoyingly, the airline cancelled the flight 10 minutes before takeoff – after we’d gone to duty-free, taken the shuttle bus to our terminal and gone through customs. As such, we actually had to go back through Canada customs, fill out a customs card and declare the booze we’d just purchased. Once we got our luggage and went back into the main terminal we discovered a massive line (as in more than a three-hour wait) to get a taxi. Luckily, it was cheaper and way, way faster to simply rent a car, which also solved the getting-to-the-airport problem tomorrow. Sweet!
So, fingers crossed our 4:50 afternoon flight tomorrow won’t get cancelled. Hopefully we’ll make it to Horrfind after all (better late than never), so if you’re attending, come say hi, we’ll have a table there. We’ll be the guys testing each other’s blood in a Petri dish.
