I will admit: driving 10 miles to a terminal has been a hell of a lot more convenient than spending two hours crawling to SEATAC. Paine Field is here to stay — and ultimately expand. May as well make it work for me.

And now it’s time for a long shif t*** on a few hours worth of sleep woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

With multiple airports and a slowly evolving light rail system, it’s almost like the region is developing into a legit metro area.

At 4 am I was awakened by the sound of my power coming back on after 3 days.

I rolled over and went back to sleep.

“ long shit on a few hours worth of sleep”

You could try adding a little more fiber to your diet....

Good drive I bet though. Early morning drives rule.

TBH I would be ecstatic if Paine field became as big as say PDX, then maybe I would have a more convenient airport to fly through. SEATAC has be sucking big time lately with the amount of traffic they are getting and there is no sign of it getting better.

Yep. I lost cell service for all of Monday too

I’m a bachelor this week. So I got to figure out what to do with my food and eat leftovers in the dark.

Fortunately it wasn’t very hot this week.

Our infrastructure in this city is too fragile. We have outages every big storm, let alone one this strong.

I live in bumfuck montana and I don’t think we’ve had a power outage since early last fall....

My parents were without power for about a week after an east coast hurricane a few years ago, but we’ve never been days without power here. Then again, that storm was a whopper. I fear we are going to get more and bigger storms in the future.

I feel your pain. I was up at 4 am also. Hooray for early meetings!

My girls are up in Baldwin, MI, population in 4 digits if you include the cats. They had an outage for about 4 hours. They are technologically more advanced than the city of Dallas.

And they should plan for them.

But they won’t.

I’m flying to San Jose tomorrow morning, my first flight out of Paine field. 7:30am departure so early start, I’ll Uber to the airport.
