While I'm Waiting...

I'm sitting here in the airport and I figured since I had the time, and the witty ideas building up in my head, that I would blog. It is an efficient way to spend my moments.
I love traveling and flying. It doesn't really matter where I'm going (I do usually end up going to cool places like NYC, though) as long I get to see something I've never seen before and see people I've never seen before. I feel as though the more people we meet, the more we can appreciate them. All of them.
Flying also brings about a few things that I just have to write down somewhere.
1. I love DIA as an airport. It gives me free WiFi! Salt Lake does not. Lame.
2. Usually when the plane begins to board, they give old people, disabled people, and people with little children the chance to get on first. I'm totally cool with this. But I have decided when I start looking old enough to be decrepit (even though I might not actually be decrepit) I am going to pretend like I can barely walk so I can board first. It's easier to do that than pretend I have a child.
3. Despite the hugely inflamed price of airport restaurant food, I still eat it. And I'd like to think the more money I spend the better it tastes. The orange juice from McDo this morning was exquisite.
4. I went shopping for a few travel necessities yesterday and found something interesting: travel chapstick. It's so small it can fit in your pocket! (Because normal size chapstick is just to bulky?)
5. Sometimes I am attracted to the boys outside (usually loading/unloading baggage or directing planes with flashlights). If only there were a way for me to talk to them...

If you thought the OJ was exquisite, you should try the mcnuggets at lunch. Purely divine.

Just an fyi, give your number to the girls at the boarding desk. They could pass it to the cute boys outside. Better yet, give them your blog url--you are funny! Problem solved. :)

Another confession

(this isn't about the same subject matter as before) A lot of the time when I meet people I feel like I know them from somewhere. A good percentage of the time I realize the only way I know them is that they resemble one of the characters on the classic board game Guess Who? Does this happen to anyone else?!?!

Recent Obsession Flair-ups

You know how there are some things that you love so much and you experience these things a ton but then after awhile they just seem to fade out? But then some time passes and you almost rediscover these things with new eyes and obsess over them again almost worse than the first time? This has recently happened to me with a few things. They include: Elton John Tater Tots Seinfeld Showering Grape Juice Thats it. PS: (Did you know?!) Thanks to Dare-bear-stare for helping me learn that my own Denver International Airport is the largest airport in the U.S. at 53 square miles! Props to Denver yet again!

Take Home Chef Wannabe

So once upon a time my friend Jeff and I made up our own little tradition. We called it "Friday Picture" and each Friday we would walk around campus and take a picture with the most awkward/awesome/unique looking individual we could find. It was something I looked forward to every week, and we would constantly surprise ourselves with the kind of people we'd see walking around BYU. A lot of weridos there. One day we decided to meander through the library to see if there was anyone extra special for our Friday Picture. Boyyy, did we find that special person! World, meet Take Home Chef Lookalike. I saw him and I couldn't believe the similarities. The striking features. The blond, pointy hair. We even found some silverware to make the photo more true to life. ( The real Curtis Stone ) Try to tell me they don't look alike. Just try. I think the best part of the story is that Jeff's girlfriend at the time (now wife) had dated Take Home Chef-a-like. And we di...
