Föderation EN Di 03.12.2024 16:57:31 The last 14 hours: a thread 🧵 It is not at my parents house and I’m unable to find it. I’ve lost it in the last 24 hours. I start to research emergency passport options. |
Föderation EN Di 03.12.2024 16:57:32 12:00am - I make an appointment at the Atlanta Passport Agency for 8:30am. Shoutout to my mom who had a copy of my birth certificate, as my other copy was 3000 miles away in Seattle 8:00am - I’m informed I can’t use my good passport photo that I got 4 months ago and have to get a shitty one at CVS |
Föderation EN Di 03.12.2024 16:57:32 8:15am - my mom (who has driven 45 minutes in traffic to the doctor’s office where I was on Sunday) reports they do not have my passport. I proceed to get a new one 9:00am - I am told I’ll have a new passport at 2:30pm with much worse photo than before 9:05am - I rebook my flight for tomorrow am |
Föderation EN Di 03.12.2024 16:57:33 10:00am - My mom tells me my old passport was found in the parking lot of the doctors office. Of course, this is now too late as I’ve already had my old one canceled. RIP good photo 10:20am - I learn South Korea has declared Martial Law |
Föderation EN Di 03.12.2024 16:57:33 At this point, I’m still planning on going to Seoul unless there is some sort of grounding. Fun fact: Delta’s reservation line (for Diamond Medallions anyway) is not working. At all. Like the lines are down. |
Föderation EN Di 03.12.2024 16:57:33 Anyway, if you thought you had a bad day, please feel better it wasn’t mine Remarkably, I haven’t screamed or cried once. All you can do is laugh. |
Föderation EN Di 03.12.2024 17:01:46 @film_girl Wow! Wow. What a chaotic runaround. I’d maybe reconsider Seoul because who knows what whacky shenanigans are going to happen over the next few days. But good luck and be safe! |
Föderation EN Di 03.12.2024 17:06:45 @Gte yeah — I’ve got 22 hours before the flight so I’ll be monitoring it |
Föderation EN Di 03.12.2024 17:02:44 @film_girl I’ve had similar days in the past.. its like life just threw you on a curve and wants to know how you would react.. it’s all about your attitude on how you take it. I say “bring it on!” .. put on a determined face and move on. It works.. |
Föderation EN Di 03.12.2024 17:29:36 @film_girl You could say it was Seoul crushing. |
