Made it to Columbus. Granted, half an hour late. And my cab wasn't waiting for me, since I was late. But the guy at the cab stand asked, "Are you Linda? I'll call your cab back.". And my cab was back in 4 minutes. But 4 minutes in this COLD was unbearable. But my hotel has a negotiated rate with this cab company, and seeing as I work for a non-profit, I felt guilty when another driver offered to take me for $10 more.
So I got here and made it to the bar in time for 2 beers (they're ready to close in a few), and now I'm thinking I may have left my cell phone in the cab. Which is better than leaving my purse in the cab in Chicago last weekend, especially as I have my driver's cell phone number so he can get me back to the airport tomorrow.
Except for the fact that I turned him in at the front desk for charging me $3 more than my negotiated rate...

Update: The phone is in the cab (thank god) and my buddy/cabbie Zach is picking me up at 4:00. Unless he gets chewed out by his manager by then, that is...

So you complained about the cab driver who you knew was coming for you the next morning? That's brave.
I have a revolving list of restaurants and stores that I can't go into because the statute of limitations for past transgrassions, complaints, and passive aggressive outbursts hasn't expired yet.
Yeah - brave or stupid - the jury's still out on this one.
