Tev Makes Some Words Happen

I’m in the PAX line room… Pretty well organized so far. Games abound.

Except, due to inflation, it’s actually a $1.50 store. What ever happened to the Five and Dime? 😉

Coffee-flavored candy, brown sugar candy with honey center, chocolate-filled vanilla Oreos, and more.

Landed in WA!

Flight was uneventful, though the plane was like an *oven* most of the flight. Don’t they have A/C?

I’m on the plane to Seattle, I haven’t slept in over 24 hours, and I just took a percoset. Whee!

I always forget what a dump JFK airport is until I’m here again.

At least the annoucement speakers aren’t horribly overdriven in this part of the airport – the gate I was at last time I was here was *horrible*.

The delay in takeoff was actually a blessing in disguise, now I don’t have to hang out in JFK as long… kind of a funky smell in the air here.

I’m on the ground in Liberty City. Er, New York City, that is…

Now I just have 3 hours till my flight to Seattle leaves.

We were about to take off, aaand… There was an A/C issue so we had to return to the gate. Hopefully they’ll fix it soon and we can get moving. It doesn’t effect my schedule, I have a 5-hour wait in NY anyway.

Having been up for 24 hours now, I’m starting to feel pretty tired…

I decided not to sleep, so stayed up packing, doing laundry, chatting online… At 4am I went outside, and right on time, Greg arrived. He zipped me over to the airport, I checked my bag (I had already printed my boarding pass at home) in moments, and walked through security.

So points for speed and efficiency, but now I’m at my gate with 2 hours till my plane takes off.

I’m the only one at the gate, and I notice that along with the regimented airport seats, there is a lone rocking chair, facing out at the tarmac.
