I am now in Doha, Qatar. God damn is it hot and humid here! It is 8:23pm here and 10:23am in Seattle...so needless to say my body clock is a little confussed. The flight was f-ing long, but there were some perks! Each passenger got a little 'gift bag' with a toothbrush and toothpaste, sleep mask, socks, ear plugs (which, Bryan I think you jinxed me with the 'baby crying on the longest flight...the entire time' remark :) so I am very glad for this gift bag), head phones, and it all came in a bag which is actually great for traveling. Also we were fed dinner and breakfast - suprisingly the food wasn't all that bad. The seats were a little bigger and more plush than most in country flights. And it was a huge plane (1st class REALLY had it made) just like the movies: three sections, with three seats in each section. Behind every seat there was a monitor that played movies, with a selection of about 70 (I watched Terms of Endearment), TV shows, you could play games, listen to music, and if you wanted to swipe your card you could use the internet and make ground phone calls. Pretty delux! I am really glad I took some ambien, or I wouldn't have slept a wink...I am just too excited. Christina put it perfectly yesturday: I am living in a glass of emotion. I am really all over the place in my thoughts, but rightfully so - this is a huge change.
Sitting in the airport - I have been here for a couple hours now and think I have seen like 3 other white people. Strangly enough, it is really nice and refreshing to be a minority. I feel like I really needed something like this to shake me around and wake me up. I have it coming - that's for sure!
