5th July 2010: Yes Dear, Clouds Live In The Sky
Now, I am quite tolerant of other people.  I work with 99% idiots, it trains you for the stupid.  But my god, 3 hours and 20 minutes never seemed so long.  And I was asleep for a good 2 hours of it!  I was sat next to two really stupid girls.  Everything was amazing to them.  Now, one I could forgive because she was a first time flyer.  And flying for the first time is amazing. 

But seriously, the other one who was talking her through flying?  "Ohhhh...clouds!  Yay!  We can take our belts off!  We're landing, it almost feels like crashing!"  That last statement I had to keep my mouth shut on.  I mean, seriously?  How does landing at all feel like crashing?  There is no fire, no carnage, no dying.  But she managed to surpass herself.  "What if the plane didn't stop?"  Honestly honey, I've heard about what happens, and you do not want to be on board when it does happen.  Think of this - planes land on tarmac for a reason.  Guess what happens when they hit grass?

And Miami Airport is amazing.  It has a smoking lounge!  Seriously!  So far on this trip I have been to New York, and their airport is non smoking with a vengeange.  I was told in no uncertain terms that I could not use my e-cigarette as it would encourage smoking.  Again, decided to keep my mouth shut.  Actually, straw polls suggest it encourages vaping.  And I struggle going 4 hours without a cigarette.  Going 12 was a breeze.  And I have to think that it was vaping.  Normally on a plane I need gum, because I can't smoke.  I drank coffee, ate pizza, slept, watched Russell Brand, listened to a bit of Linux Outlaws, it was fantastic. 

One last point I want to make in this post is the way Latin people pronounce Guatemala.  I love it.  I especially love the way my hot Honduran girlfriend says it, but hey, I am biased!  But I just heard an announcement for it, and I love the way they say it.  No idea what it is.  I can only assume it's my Autistic affinity for words, because, and this will sound really strange to you, but I see a flowing ribbon of water which "feels" like silk when I hear it.  And Kinsinthsesia is odd for me.  I don't really have it.
