Something Clever

So here I sit on flight 2022 on my way to Idaho. Excitement she wrote! At least I finally found the time to update my neglected blog. Of course I could have also used the 2h 90min lay over at SeaTac to type this, and maybe even have done so through a wifi connection. But to be honest I just didn’t feel like it. Here’s hoping my hotel in Nowhere Idaho will have Internet, or this might have to wait until I return home to get posted.

I’m sitting in the very back row of what seems to be one of the smallest aircrafts I’ve ever been on. Actually this would be the second time today on this model of plane. I don’t really mind flying on the smaller planes but the amount of noise during flight is annoying. You also feel the landing a lot more. The nice thing about this flight right now is that it’s less than half full, meaning elbow room! YAY! My first flight today was much fuller, but the flight was only 35mins in the air. So really nothing to complain about. I even sat beside a very attractive young lady. How often does that happen? Usually I end up in between a crying new born and someone with a chronic cough.

I will be in Idaho for a couple of days on business. This is my first cross boarder business trip and is kind of exciting. At the same time I’m also a little nervous. However I’m very relieved that I was able to cross the boarder without a hitch. I had heard so many horror stories about U.S. customs that I was paranoid I wouldn’t get across. It’s funny; they ask you questions about where you live and what you’re doing, and why you’re doing it. And even though I’m not doing anything wrong or illegal I still fumble for the answers and feel like I’m hiding something. Weird.

I feel my descent now and can see the farm land below, so I’ll sign off now.

*YAY, my room has Internet... wireless even.

Bad Blogger.... Bad!

I know I have been so neglecting over the last few months. If my blog were a pet, poor thing would be dead by now. I wish that I could say I've been so tremendously busy that I just wasn't able to find the time in my over loaded spectacular days to update my blog with a even a simple single line, but then I'd be a liar. I just haven't taken the time. But that's all gonna change, right? (temporary moment of thought while my brain tries to determine if it's being asked directly, or if the question is rhetorical.)

Of course.

I will post a real one soon, but until then...

Enjoy this picture taken by a geologist last year. I just love this photo.
