Everyone seemed to be in the airport on Sunday&#8230;all the direct flights to Phx were oversold. So I hopped on a flight to Vegas, and only got a flight back to Phx through a minor miracle. The airline had screwed up and had neglected to book a pilot for the flight (yeah, minor detail). So it took hours for them to locate a pilot, and hour by hour people bailed&nbsp;and went to other flights&#8230;so I got a seat. Yay. And I am totally rambling. <\/P><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>was wonderful not because of the new products (though they were cool), but because of the wonderful people I got&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2492","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dinawakley.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2492","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dinawakley.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dinawakley.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dinawakley.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dinawakley.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2492"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dinawakley.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2492\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dinawakley.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2492"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dinawakley.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2492"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dinawakley.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2492"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
