How the trade winds drove her (Part 2)

More thorough update:
I got on New Jersey Transit and took the one hour, three stop train to Newark airport, which was... well, boring. And I ate my last wawa sandwich for months. And had my last wawa lemonade-tea. Damn.

Oh well, I got to Newark airport and through check-in, security, and to my gate in about 20 minutes. Because I'm amazing. Then I waited at the airport for quite some time until my damn plane showed up (like an hour late). The ride was nice though, because... well, frankly, because I had just flown on United from Hawaii, and... united sucks. Continental was awesome, with free meals and such. Even though the meals suck, they're free. And the entertainment! Strippers!

Or their movie thing. I watched Edward Scissorhands, Penelope, and the Princess Bride. And read a lot of one of my favorite books, which I need to throw out when I finish it. I need to toss all my books to drop the weight :-(

I got in about 45 minutes late, I think. Not sure. But we stayed in the plane for so damn long, it was distressing. Then I followed Lark's incredibly detailed amazing fantastic
directions. And fell asleep on the train and missed my stop. Damn. Oh well. I'm here now, and we've been doing some nice fun stuff. And will be doing more.

Paris!

Way to go, Alex, missin' yer stop! :P

Also, WHAT is a wawa sandwich?

And, as for your books, give 'em to people! Don't throw 'em out! Leave 'em somewhere with a note or something. <3
