The only thing keeping me from paper-cutting myself to death right now is the fact that the Holiday Inn Express here in Walla Walla provides late-night arriving guests with cookies and milk. I'm on a 9-hour layover in WALLA FRICKIN WALLA when I should be at Chop Suey showing my boobs in support of Corey and company.
Well... even without the cookies I could be consoled by remembering that even though I have to work five flights tomorrow, when I'm done I'm going to hop a late-afternoon flight to Redmond/Bend and spend a few days in Sunriver with Charlie's folks. Charlie's stepdad would not provide any specific details, but he advised me not to eat or drink before showing up.
Sunshine. Food. Hiking. Swimming. Food.
I miss Ellensburg. Can you believe that shit? A sufficient amount of time has passed for me to remember all of the most f-ing fantastic times I ever had at college. I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that I don't really have any contact with anyone anymore. I log onto sites like Myspace all the time, and all the people on there have event postings and pictures of themselves with a throng of drunken friends and acquaintances on their sites. I can't help but wonder how they managed to make all those friends in this stage of their lives, or keep the ones they've always had.
Anyway. I'm working the 0650 flight out tomorrow. Gotta get just enough sleep so that I'm on the ball, but I'm still sufficiently scary enough to be a flight attendant.
