No, no--that's not quite it, thank God. I found tickets that I could have afforded, but knew I couldn't get a rental car from the airport so there was no sense buying them, and I didn't have enough internet to message folks looking for someone to come get me. I certainly couldn't call...I have a UK phone now and no international calling. I could have gone without the dogs. Even Her Highness Paige loves Michel enough to stay with him in my absence. Miracles never cease.
