Hangin in the airport

One hour ago I was happily on my way to Seattle for a visit with Jeff, on the plane in my awesome seat (just behind first class, window seat, no one next to me), plane speeding down the runway about to be airborne, when suddenly we came to a screeching halt. Apparently another plane spotted "something leaking from our engine." After a few minutes surrounded by emergency vehicles, we went back to the gate, got off the plane, and now I'm sitting here waiting for another plane to arrive for us to get on. We will probably be leaving around the time I was supposed to arrive. Short weekend visits do not need to be made shorter by airplanes leaking fuel!
