After the marathon brunch, we all went back to the apartment to relax and I packed up my things.
Jagdish arrived and took me to the domestic airport per Jackson's direction. Thankfully, he waited a couple minutes because I pretty quickly learned that I needed to be at the international airport. My first flight was to Delhi and there was much debate on which airport was correct. (Of course the AirIndia website wasn't too helpful.)
I got back into the car and we drive about 20 minutes more to the international airport. It was really no issue since Jagdish took me and I made sure I was pretty early for my 9:30pm flight. Some shopping, browsing, and a snack purchase and I was on my way.
A transfer in Delhi and then the 14+ hour direct flight to Chicago! Thankfully I was assigned an exit row seat so I was relatively comfortable and got some sleep too. On both flights I watched a TON of movies so that was cool.
We landed about an hour early, I collected my bag & went directly to the CTA to go into work. Michael was starting later than usual, so he brought me the car and we caught up for a few minutes in my lobby before he went to work himself.
When I was gone, I had made an appointment withy doctor for both my stomach issues and a nasty bug bite. He gave me some steroid cream for the bite (and it started helping immediately!) and sent me to Northwestern for blood tests (which have since come back negative, thankfully). I felt pretty gross and dirty and itchy all day. No make up, crazy curly hair and leggings aren't my usual work look,but no one seemed to care- thankfully!
I made it at work until 3:30pm, then headed home and manages enough energy to do all my laundry and unpack!
