praying for the worst

i believe there are times of great stress and workload when you can, with no shame, pray for the worst.
agree? disagree?
traveled to san antonio Tuesday for meetings Tuesday and Wednesday evening. Have just finished up. It's nearly 11 PM.
Scheduled to fly to Chicago tomorrow morning at 6:45 AM to arrive at 9:20 to attend and present at a new business pitch from 1-3 PM.
Scheduled to fly out of Chicago at 5:35 to arrive home in NY at 8:45.

I am hoping, praying, NEEDING the weather to flare up, and for my Chicago flight to be cancelled.

Please, please let the god's of business travel rear their heads and make the passage from the southwest to the northern-midwest impassable. Let them blow a cold, ice forming wind over the path and stop my flight from getting through to Chicago. Another acceptable option would be to divert my plane to some other location. I would happily sit on the runway for an extended period of time if it means that my opportunity to present in Chicago is hopelessly ruined.

yes. i may have no shame, but i also have no desire to present on very few hours of sleep and a lot of hours of travel.
call me crazy
