Fashion Week - Paris - 2011

Found out I had the opportunity to go to Fashion Week in Paris to the Thierry Mugler show.

I was thrilled.

16 hours before the flight I realized my passport was on my desk at my apartment in LA.  I was in Chicago. 

Courier service was over $1k.  I then booked a flight to LA first thing in the AM. To go home. Get my passport. Turn around and fly to Paris for the show on Wednesday night.

At 6am I find out that the flights from LA to Paris are over $3k.  So that's out of the question.

I give up.

I get a bbm from my friend who got all my credentials for backstage, and even got me a seat for the fashion show. I was so upset.  He wouldn't let up. He found me a courier service that literally picked up my passport from my apartment. Got it on a flight. And it arrives at O'Hare at 3:40pm today.  Insane.

I won't believe it until I am sitting on Air France at 5:30pm today.
