Part 1: The beginning
Current mood: adventurous
Category: Travel and Places
Yah, so our adventure started out pretty action filled. I had about three days to get packed. I ran all over town trying to get all of the necessary items I would need. There was so many people that I wanted to say goodbye to but so little time. So Brian picked me up at my house ...Jamie was there.... I miss her. We said our good-byes, and made our way off to the airport.
Brian has traveled around his entire life, but me, I had never really set foot in an airport...(so just use your imagination.). We checked in our bags and then looked for our gate. First, we had to make it through security. I had to take off my shoes and proceeded to let the female security guard "feel me up." ....I felt violated! She kept making me laugh while she smiled, "we’ve got a live one here!" As I thought "I think I’m in love with her!" (Jooookeee).
Ounce we found our gate, we both decided to go our seperate ways. It’s pretty sweet! We both get our own space, yet we still know to have each others back. I left him to his burger restaurant, promised that I would return in 15 minutes, and I wandered off to look for something that would interest me. I walked and walked breathing in the air, every breath a little longer than the first, trying to take in how much my life has changed in the past two weeks.....I mean serously things have changed. Well, I found my ice tea and a sandwhich and went looking for my gate.
Yah so I bet you saw this one coming..... I got lost (are you surprised?). I started fliippin out like it was New Years Eve at Harrahs. I went one way and then I would turn around and go the other way, but every way looked the same. "OMG!" I thought to myself, "I have waited for this moment my entire life, and I’m going to miss my flight, and he’s going to leave me here, and , and, and." So I attempted to call Brian,.... over,.... and over, ...and over,.. and well you get the point. He wouldn’t answer. What was going on? Maybe it wasn’t meant for me to leave. Well, I figured it all out! I left the freakin termial! Who does that? Well, it wasn’t so bad except for the fact that I had to go through security again and get all my stuff re-examined and get re-felt up (that was my favorite part, I did it on purpose just for that!) So I was home free right? I thought so, until they asked for my boarding pass. Crap! Brian had it....ahhhhhhh!
Luckily Brian called me right then. I explained to him the situation! I don’t think I was quite taking in the urgency of the matter, until I saw him turning the corner gasping for air. He waved my ticket in their face like it was the meaning of life and he wanted to share. I looked at him ounce, and whispered into the air "I’m sorry." He nodded at me and closed his eyes to assure me that everything would be okay......When really, everthing wasn’t okay.
I made it through!....Finally! Only thing was they took my lipton tea. I was pissed about that! For atleast 10 minutes.....Brian looked at me and said let’s go! He took off like he was getting payed for it! I lagged behind in my high heels doing the best that I could. I screamed "Whats wrong!" He panted "Our flight is leaving now! Why did you leave the terminal?" At this point I realized that it was GO time! I put my shoes in my hand raced down the isles like there was a bomb explosion in the other direction. I thought it was funny...however brian didn’t exactly think so. I mean here we are running down isle after isle full speed ahead, while everyone else is sitting or standing around calm as shit, turning their heads to stare at us screaming at each other! I don’t care what he says ......that was fun!
Brian struggled for his words, over his odd patterned breathing, "Did the flight leave?" ..."No." The whatever you call that lady said "We held the plane for you." We looked at each other in disbelief. I felt special, I think he was embarassed, whatever works....And now the adventure has begun! First Class (Welcome to the good life!).
We flew from St. Louis to Denver Colarado, to San Fransico. We had complementary wine the entire ride! I thing at some point we also consumed vodka. I never got too waisted, because I figured puking on a plane would have to be the worst! They offered us free food. It was really exiting "hmmm" ...."pa--st-a annnd vege-ta-bles." I read, I opened it Cool! It was suppose to be gourmet, but it was more like GourtYUCK!. Jesus! That stuff was horrible! Whoever invented that stuff ....oh nevermind. I put my airplane head phones on and rocked out in my seat. Banging my head as I gazed out of the window looking at the layered clouds, and watched everything I knew dissappear. Brian sunk down loooow in his air plane seat slightly nodding his head to the music. Although he looked like a gangster then , eventually he was passed out on my shoulder drooling his heart out. We had plenty of empty bottles of wine at our feet. I reclined my seat back, kicked my feet up. "One more blanket please." "Yeah OJ is fine!" I think our flight attendant may have been the nicest guy in the world! Brian would say "one more pillow please, yes thank you so much, she has back problems." This is so not true...but we did have like 5 pillows for like no reason. My ears hurt so bad when I got off the plane.....I blew and sneezed Geeez..
Anyways, I’m out of here for now. I won’t have a laptop like I had thought. We will be staying in a hostile in Thailand that cost 16 dollars a night, that’s 8 dollars a piece. We are hoping that they will be providing internet connections there. So I will try my best to keep up with this blog. Oh and not to freak anyone out, but Brian’s mom says that if you smoke weed in Thailand, or smuggle it in, or even get it planted on you, you will be sent to prison for life or even get the death penaly. Also, when you cross the street in Thailand you have to make sure you presume that everyone wants to kill you. Hence they aint stoppin holmes. If that’s not enough to freak you out, you have to watch your drinks so that they don’t knock you out cold, take you to a hotel and cut your kidneys out. Kidney theft is really popular out there. WTF! OMG! scary stuff. For real. I leave toomarow morning. I’ll try to keep in touch.
