"The Journey Starts Today"
It seems like a fitting title of this blog post would happen to be my kids favorite Pokemon theme song, despite the fact that the only thing that has been ringing through my head has been that scene from Armageddon where Michael Clark Duncan sings “Leaving on a jet plane.”
I'm writing this over Canada right now which is kinda cool, eh? Long story short, in July I have to go over to London for work. Until today I haven't been on a plane since college. I also have only really been on 3 flights. Once when I was an infant or toddler or something, once in high school, and once in college. So it’s been a while. I also happen to freak out and panic when I am traveling so this is truly and adventure. Now, travel despising Kristopher got an opportunity to take a week overseas for his MBA program in London and Paris with classmates. So I jumped on the opportunity to take it and learn how to travel with friends before I go myself. Seemed like a solid idea… right? I think so.
I'm still trying to figure out why they put me on a plane from Chicago to Detroit, then Detroit to London. I could have just drove to Detroit and this have been less painful. Either way. Luckily, I got a seat next to a cool dude who works for a software company. Turns out, WiFi on a plane is garrrrbageeee. I can't even log into my page to really post new listings and blog posts for everyone. I could have brought my little man purse id I would have known that’d be the case. At least I have trail mix and gummy worms.
Either way, 5 hours and 56 minutes to go till I land. The kid to my right is eating chili. On a plane. Chili. 8 hour flight, and you eat chili? Bro you’ll barely fit on the toilet. Why you risking chili?
So, I'm rambling. Not really sure what else to talk about. Either way, keep an eye out for more posts! It’s getting crazy up in here.
