My day in shitsville

Orlando is a very fine place.   This is not about Orlando or its airport.  This is about being stuck in the airport and having to spend a night on a chair or bench or how ever I managed to endure the lapse between a missed flight and a rescheduled flight the next day.  I was in turmoil. I missed my flight.  Really no big deal.  Its not.  But I found myself somehow eventually finding a bench on which to sleep. I slept after finally getting to sleep probably at 3 in the morning or somthing like that. I guess I was up for some reason.  Maybe I slept longer. I think my flight out was at 10 in the morning that next day. I somehow awoke only 20 or some minutes before that flight was to leave.  Maybe I did have a little more time, but I remember being painfully rushed. I had to get my luggage out of a locker and board the plane.  Funny, I was wearing a red and yellow and white striped shirt, horizontally and narrow stripes.   I was moving fast.  Overhead I think I heard the "flight of the bumblebee" song.  Was I that bumblebee?  I felt like my bee hive was hit by a bat and I was headed somewhere without regard to noticing the people I passed. I actualy thought that perhaps someone saw how I was moving about on an overhead camera and thought they'd have a little fun with life and play that tune.  I did look just like a bumble bee wearing that shirt. 
Made my flight :).
