What I Do

As my Facebook status reads, I am at an internet cafe in Fukuoka right now. This is part one of a very long journey back to Amerika. Land of veggie burritos and size 8 Women's shoes.

It's almost 4am. Ive been in this booth since 12:30. I drank 3 free beverages: peach soda, green tea, and water. I watched one DVD: Little Miss Sunshine. I surfed about 600 websites and realized the internet is boring and maybe I dont need an iPhone.

I'll go to Starbucks in about 30 minutes. Then, catch a taxi to Fukuoka airport. I have to say, "福岡くうどまでおねがいします" to the driver.

After that I'll be sitting around in the Tokyo airport for 7 hours waiting for my flight to L.A. There, I'll collect my shit, go through customs, and hop on another plane to Portland.

Total travel time: 35 hours.

Seriously, Alex, you better only get married once.

UPDATE (4:11am): I already smell bad.

Oh dear god. I waited on an airport for maybe six hours once because it was my first flight alone and I was afraid of coming late. Those were the most painfully boring hours of my life. I can´t even begin to think about how bored you must be.

PS. NOBODY needs an iPhone. And I´m already saying this as a (quite satisfied) Mac user.

As usual, your post brings back memories. Scary memories. I hope you enjoy your time at home and I'll be anxious to read about it. Also . . . I don't suppose that's Portland, OREGON?
