After making my hubs & kids drive SAT-IAH in the middle of the night (due to UA cancel) to catch their connection to SJO & then making them wait 7 hrs at the gate & then loading them on to the plane, & then canceling the flight, this is what @united has offered as compensation.

They were rebooked on another carrier. The @united agent cried tears of joy when she got it to work. Somewhere there is a heart there.

Remember how during the pandemic time lost meaning & you were scattered & you couldn’t focus? But somehow it was almost ok because everyone else was having the same experience? Working through cancer (I’m gonna be ok) is a little like that—only it feels like you’re the only one…

But cancer is a teacher. I’m *not* the only one and maybe next time I come across someone who is scattered and missing deadlines, I’ll try to be even more patient, because they’re probably going through something too.

Also, if anyone tries telling you “audiobooks aren’t reading!” please tell them that an English professor said it was okay for you to tell them to shut up.
If you're struggling to get back into reading, try audiobooks. There's something weirdly immersive and soothing in hearing a human voice reading a long book. It's like slipping into a warm bath.
