2005 March 8th

Filed under: Life

Those of you who know me most likely know I’m not much of an early riser. So what does a nocturnal person do when they have to be up early? The answer of course is that if you never go to sleep, the end of the night is the beginning of the morning. I’m now wide awake and enjoying a pumpernickel bagel with a little garlic and herb cream cheese. Sidenote: why is pumpernickel so delicious, while I dislike rye? Maybe its the molasses. All I need to do is make it to Dulles…

At this time, I should be on board my least favorite airline, Delta, and heading toward my least favorite layover city, Atlanta. For a little background about why Delta is the worst airline on the face of the earth, see my notes for 2003-03-08 and 2003-03-15 on my trip to California two years ago. If all goes well, after hitting Atlanta I’ll be in Las Vegas by 3pm Vegas time.

A year ago, I had just been offered a job, was in Daytona Beach, Florida for spring break, was reading Oracle Night by Paul Auster, and listening to Appleseed Cast. Now I’m working said job, reading Breakfast of Champions by Kurt Vonnegut, and listening to Christopher O’Riley playing Radiohead on the piano. At least I still get a spring break with my grad student friends.

See ya in a week, hopefully with tons of new pictures. Now that I’ve finished packing everything into one carry-on, it’s time for my 3 hours of sleep until I have to get up.
