January 26, 2005PIMP'n and STINKING In Seat 1A
I pulled up to the airport the little "butterflies" began to attack the insides of my belly. I jumped out of the car and told myself that the next 28 hours is going to be difficult. I was beginning my journey in Tampa flying to LA, then a quick change over to Sydney Australia. That totals 28 hours in waiting, flying and mostly sleeping if I m Lucky.......... As I put my backpack on, my mother began her "Photo Assault"on me. "Please Kevin, just one more photo" she said repeatedly. For all who do not know me, I hate taking Photos. My mother then prayed for me, and told me to have a good time and before I knew it, I was on my own. I am proud of my mom, she didn't cry this time. After getting my tickets I then realized I had 2.5 hours to kill. So, what does one do when having to wait at the airport? Become a "freeloader" and read all the magazines for free. I swear, I think that I spent an hour at this one news stand, it felt like the man behind the counter actually began to look at me funny. I then thought "what else is there to do"? For some reason I thought of Isaiah, so I went and had a few cocktails to calm my nerves. I then made a huge mistake that I didn't realize was a mistake until 3 hours into the flight. I went to Taco Bell and ate 3 bean burritos. *****WORLD TRAVELERS TIP NUMBER 1: Do not eat burritos before the flight. Burritos cause gas, and that gas tends to build up. When the cabin pressure increase, that gas has to be released. Trust me, your neighbor won't be happy with you. Finally, the ground flight attendant started to calling zone numbers. When I got to my seat I, I noticed that I was sitting in the best seat on the plane........seat 1A. I had live satellite TV, and a bunch of great movies to choose from. It was a good beginning fro my long journey! Comments
