Long overnight flights are weird and mind-screwy. It feels like it was a million years ago that I was sat in that Thai restaurant wondering if the tornado warning would mean my flight would be cancelled or delayed, or if it was even safe for us to drive to ATL. But it was less than 24 hours ago. I don't know why it feels like I've been really busy, when I was mostly just sat on my butt for 8+ hours. Weird.
Some thoughts on air travel:
- flying alone isn't actually that scary, even when you're flying into a monster of an airport like ATL
- sleeping on an overnight flight isn't as easy as you'd expect it to be
- never use the toothpaste they provide for 'freshening up'. It's not particularly paste-like and definitely does not taste minty fresh. However, the Extra Strong Mint / Polo hybrid (lol, hybrid) that comes with the breakfast box does the trick.
- BA blankets have magical properties
- the last two hours of a long flight are the most tedious
I am. Insanely tired right now. And I can't decide if I'm hungry or not - I feel like I shouldn't be, because I had two dinners yesterday, although I guess technically one of them was lunch/dinner. And we had a small breakfast on the plane, except it was served when my body was probably still thinking it was 2am, so it did nothing for me. Ahhhh, thinking of timezones and changes during travel is confusiiiiing.
Anyway, I'm making no sense, so I think it's time to step away from the internet and charge my lasers batteries @_@ Also continue wallowing in self-pity. The flight home was so lonely.
