Morons
I think there are a lot of morons out in this world. Just go drive on a freeway for a few minutes. I would like to provide another example:
Me.
I'm in Turkey doing my thing. Spend a pretty lazy Saturday there. Sunday morning comes and I am all prepped to get to the airport. Right before I leave my room to checkout, I look at my plane ticket. I see the number 12. I look at my watch. I see the number 13. It seems I had in my head the entire trip that I was coming home Sunday. I was very wrong. I quickly got on the phone to see what I could do. Luckily, it wasn't yet midnight on Saturday in the US, or my United tickets would have been canceled. So, with just a change fee, I limited my blunder to a few hundred dollars rather than a few thousand. This is the first time the system I have for traveling has broken down... Time to rethink the process...

Must run in the family. Been there, done that...
The maids walked into our hotel room in Hawaii to clean because we were supposed to have checked out, and there we (my friend Kris and I) sat in our underwear, planning what we were going to do on our "last" day on Oahu! And we didn't even have as good an excuse as you did. This 'splains why you were in DC and why you were home later than I thought.
