1. You realize you have to pay $20 for parking, off to a good start.

2. Waiting in a security line longer than the line at Chipotle when it first opened.

3. Getting to the airport an hour early to find your flight is delayed 2 hours.

4. Stopping to get a coffee to kill time... or the airport bar.

5. Not being able to lift your carry-on into the overhead bin.

6. Having the middle seat, never a good thing.

7. Being stuck next to someone who forgot their deodorant.

8. Forgetting your headphones so you have to listen to the person next to you blaring their music.

9. Finding out a soda will cost you $10.

10. Having to get up to let the person in the window seat go to the bathroom, twice.

11. Not being able to leave your seat once you get to the gate because the seat belt sign hasn't been turned off.

12. Waiting for your luggage at baggage claim for over 30 minutes before it starts to come out. Of course, yours is the last bag.

13. Yelling on the phone when you can't find where you're getting picked up, "I'm outside of door 3 I don't understand what is so confusing."

1. "Talk about a dream
Try to make it real
You wake up in the night
With a fear so real
Spend your life waiting
For a moment that just don't come
Well don't waste your time waiting." (Badlands)
