August 26th, 2006“is that snake poisonous?”
There’s an unspoken list of things you never want to hear…
“I didn’t know she was your sister.”
“Step out of the car, turn around and put your hands on the hood.”
“I’m sorry, your credit card has been declined.”
“Flight such-and-such to so-and-so has been delayed. Please see a counter attendant to check on the status of your connection.”
Guess which one I got to hear this morning?
I’m sure you heard/read about all the nonsense that happened on planes around the world yesterday—knives, bomb threat, funky smells, etc.—and those things, of course, will inevitably spill over to today.
In my case, the flight crew didn’t get in until early this morning and since they have a required downtime of so many hours, my flight is now delayed a good hour.
Which means I’ll miss my connection.
Which means I have to take a later flight.
Eh. Good times here at the airport.
what is worth that you end up spending lots of money at many useless stuffs you end up buying in the airport to make your waiting less waiting less sad ( i.e: a 200 pages english book that u know u’ll never understand in your entire life, 2 stickers that says ” I love NY, MEX, PARIS…” that u’ll never stick on anywhere, etcetcetcetcetcetcetc not to mention all the junk food u eat )

I can think of quite a few things to add to the list of things that you never wanna hear, although I don’t think they would be appropriate for your blog!

Actually one that would be appropriate is “You don’t remember me do you?” as you look blankly into her face!
