Chicago airport drama

So this time the airplane drama occured with me sitting in my seat at the gate. Just before I boarded to return from Chicago, a fuel tanker driver decided it would be a giggle to turn a corner a bit too quick. Next thing you know, the said tanker is upside down on it's roof with kerosene merrily spilling onto the Tarmac of the taxi area. So, guess where my plane was? Yep, thats right..... Immediately behind the tanker. So after sitting there 30 minutes, it wasn't looking good for making the only connecting flight to Melbourne from L.A. Next minute I bailed for the next flight on the other side of the terminal. The gamble paid off and I made the connection (minus my bags). So I finally made it back to Mel after yet more airline related dramas!
