Oh look. It's a traveling blog post! I really didn't expect to be on the Internet this week, but so far kidnapping connection has worked out much better than planned. So it's spring break '09. And this year, I'm hanging with the fam in ATL. I'll try to update regularly, especially the things I see column in the sidebar. Traveling is always so much fun, even if I've been to the place a bazillion times.
Random Travel Related Thoughts:
Personally, I love flying. And lucky me, I got to fly from Indy to ATL today. We got a brand new shiny airport in Indy. I'm not gonna lie, it was pretty spiffy. It's still fairly small, especially when I frequent the ATL airport in (almost) direct proportion to Indy International, but it's all shiny and new and open. It's got a really nice vibe now.
But anyway, security checks have gotten much better in recent years. (I haven't flown in about 2 years) It's no where near as tedious and annoying as it used to be. But what I really thought was cool, was the strip search machine. It was awesome! I got strip searched, without the stripping! My life is slowly becoming more and more like science fiction. I want my lightsaber! (or maybe I'd do better with a lightepee?)
So after getting psyudo-strip searched, I was waiting around in the terminal listening to the snakes on a plane soundtrack (yes, yes I did actually do that. I was severely disappointed with Samuel L. Motha-fuckin Jackson did not show up) and people watching. Now, inspired by snakes on a plane, I decided that if they're actually were snakes on my plane, or any serious disasters, we'd probably all be screwed. Lots of babbys and a distinct lack of buff martial artists. Good thing it was a boring flight.
In any case, the real point of this. I sat next to this lady today. And guess what she pulled out. A copy of New Moon. I almost died right there. I truly can't escape twilight. It's like... haunting me or something. She was reading the part where Bella hangs out with Emily and the wolves. Yes, I did read over her shoulder. Dante's Inferno was sitting neglected on my lap. I mildly regret this decision.

Also, Things that make me happy: apparently king tut and the terracotta soldiers are in ATL. Guess who might get to see them :3

I want to strip search you. And Twilight is stalking you! Shame on you for reading over her shoulder. (Not really, I'd have done the same thing). Yay science fiction reality!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I had nothing of merit to say here, just wanted you to know I read it.
