Not only did I get the waivers on the hotel in Miami, I got Air Canada to give me a waiver code so I could ticket on a discounted fare that they pulled over night, and then I got them to give me decent seats on the discounted fare.
HOLY SHIT!!!
I'm not sure if this means I'm golden for the rest of the day, or if the fates are setting me up for some major disaster. (You may remember that whole post about "magical thinking.")
