Airport Day

First destination: Boston. Or more specifically, Logan Airport. Second destination is the San Francisco Airport, then onto Taiwan, via the Taipei (technically Taoyuan, near Taipei) Airport.

Airport day means clocking 20 hours of flight time, along with the following:
- Reading Jerzy Kosinski's "Being There", all the while realizing I've seen the movie anyway
- Starting Barbara Kingsolver's "Animal Dreams", wondering if I should relate to Codi or Hallie

- In-flight TV:
- "The Office" Episode about making a commercial that I've already seen
- "How I Met Your Mother" Only identified it by the fact that Alyson Hannigan's in it
- "Monk", and "Psych" which I'd never heard of before, but enjoyed a lot more than "Monk"

- In-flight movies:
- Ignored two showings of "The Bucket List"
- Watched the end of "Mad Money" which wasn't the greatest moral, "Definitely, Maybe" with really cute penguins, and "Spiderwick Chronicles", which was freaky when the boy's dad turned into a monster and the boy was going to kill him, but I'm a bit hazy on those details.
- Watched "La Misma Luna" 1.5 times, was great Spanish practice ("Under the Same Moon") and had a really catchy song about how Superman is like an illegal Mexican immigrant

- In-flight food: Everything from ramen-style cup noodles to meatloaf with mashed potatoes and a cheerfully over-salted turkey-swiss cheese sandwich (they ran out of pasta primavera, naturally)

Also, some random person requested a switch to an aisle seat, so on the SanFran to Taipei flight I got a great window seat and happened to sit next to a person who not only lives a city away from my hometown, but has a mutual good friend. Twas a good time, and the best part?

The jetlag never came.
