Made it to Denver! (Minus a piece of important luggage)

So I embarked on my journey to Denver this morning. I ended up waking up around 5:00 a.m. to take a shower and finish packing.

I made it to Baltimore fine and was lucky to get to leave.  My flight left the airport at 2:05 p.m. and at 2:30 p.m. the airport was shutting down due to a blizzard! My plane was the last one to leave the airport until Sunday!  Once I was finally on the plane, they made me check my carry on because they said there wasn't enough room in the overheads. This made me very nervous. Mainly because I hadn't planned on checking it and because I didn't have a tag on it with my name. I had packed very carefully, making sure I carried everything important on the plane with me (ski clothes, glasses, makeup, etc.)...

When I got to Denver I was anxiously awaiting my luggage at the baggage claim.  I got my big check bag very quick, and I stood there waiting for the one I had to check on the plane... and I waited, and waited, and waited. Then they let us know they had put everything out and I still didn't have my bag, I began to panic!! I had to go to the Southwest counter where I had to make a claim on my lost baggage. I started crying and it was really really terrible. But they couldn't do anything else for me but make me wait.

I'll let you know how it goes...
