Airport

The place no one wants to be.

Adam told me that once. I think it's true. Either you haven't left for where you want to be, you're waiting in a city you have no business being in otherwise, or you're waiting for someone to take you to your final destination. No one wants to be at the airport. Even still, you shouldn't complain.



Today I partook in the miracle of human flight. I'm spending Christmas as I do every year with my family in Orlando! It's always good. Right now I'm waiting in the place no one wants to be for my sister to arrive from Boston, then we'll go home together. Sweet!

My Wi-Fi thing on my MacBook is called "AirPort." I imagined what would happen right now if I clicked "AirPort Off"...

Was I the one that said that? I don't remember. It sounds like a Mike insight more. I'll take credit for it though.

Hmmm... I'm not sure. And did you mean a Mike Moore insight? ;)

I LOVE that clip. S showed it to me a while ago; it's true, really. We take way too much for granted.

WE NEED TO HANG OUT, btw. :)

Lauren - Yes, amazing clip! I love it. I really loved taking off Thursday (in the airplane). I think for a while I lost the magic feeling of euphoria when we left the ground. I hope it never becomes common.

I tried texting you back about hanging out! What happened?

"Now you watch a movie and you take a dump and you're home." It's like our generation's version of Dorothy's ruby red slippers... only slightly less glamorous.

And not everyone hates the airport. I used to love the Miami airport, 'cause it meant that I was back in the States. It didn't matter that I wasn't quite home yet, 'cause there were drinking fountains, toilet paper, and people who believed in customer service.

"You just click your heels together take a dump and you're home."

I guess there are reasons to love an airport. One of mine was Cinnabon, but that's not in Orlando's anymore. :\ Lame. Oh well. I lived next door to one for 3 years and barely went, so it's obviously not the biggest deal. But it's nice when the airport is something to look forward to.

I really appreciated that clip. Thanks for sharing that!

I don't always hate airports, If i'm in one that means that: a) I'm traveling (and I love traveling) or b) I'm there to see someone I haven't seen in a while.

I only get in my car to get some place, but I love being in my car.
