all day i’ve felt like tom hanks in the terminal except with no catherine zeta jones to keep me company. before i left for the airport, i made sure to have a hearty breakfast of eggs and pasta in the hopes that that would hold me over for the flight and i wouldn’t have to spend a ridiculous amount of money at airport food. however, my plan was drastically foiled when my 11am direct flight from NYC to SF was canceled and *lucky me!* the next available flight wasn’t until 6pm (and then with a stop at LAX, which we’ll get to later). so by 2pm i was starving and ended up giving in. but not just giving in in a regular way–no, giving in like a mark ass punk. what the fuck is a chinois chicken salad????

oh yeah, i forgot, chinese is much more elegant when it’s said in french. total sellout city, adriel. i don’t know what got into me. for the first time in my life i felt like i wanted wonton crud on my salad. sorry nico, i failed you.

money spent on crappy airport food at this point: $10

the salad did nothing for me.  NOTHING i say!  before hopping the flight i ended up getting some kind of santa fe chicken sandwich thing (i tried to look up “santa fe” in french and it’s santa fe).  the sandwich got soggy during the 4 minute walk from the food court to the terminal, which ended up making the sandwich taste santa feckingdisgusting.

money spent on crappy airport food at this point: $20

well, after a grueling 6-hour flight sitting in front of a crying baby and watching narnia (it was prince caspian and i was so lost because i never saw the first one and am still used to the OG british version).  when i arrived at LAX i found out that my flight to SFO was delayed for an hour and a half.  yippee!

it’s okay though, i went to ruby’s diner (not that ruby) and i think everything’s going to be okay.

oh yeah, i bought a breadbowl of clam chowder and it was the tastiest meal i’ve had all day (that doesn’t mean it was tasty though)

money spent on crappy airport food at this point: $30!!!  that’s the cost of a month of cable!

speaking of (sort of), lookie where the geniuses put the electrical outlets:

backed to a corner once again.  they’re about to board.  i might get home by 3am.

    well… if you listened to me about talking to the fly girl sitting across from you, there might’ve been some sort of conselation prize for the extremely long trip back home.
    *thanks again for the “dust” homie!
