Quiet until I know you. Polite even if I don't like you. Cynical all the time. HATE gossip with a passion. Firmly believe that there are always two sides of a story and anyone who makes a decision based solely on one side is acting like a fool. I love to read, so if you have read a good book, let me know.

Airport conversations...

I am sitting here in the airport waiting for my plane.
My laptop + free WIFI = an easy wait.
It is fascinating to listen to people's conversations.

Two guys next to me are freaking out that their flight is 30 minutes delayed. I find that fascinating. What is worry really going accomplish? Really? The plane is going to get here on time...or it isn't. You will miss your connecting flight...or you won't. Either way freaking out in the seat next to me isn't going to help.
And getting all upset at the ladies at the desk isn't the answer either!! They really can't help you in this area. I am fairly confident that they can't control the weather nor the speed of the inbound plane. And, no, they don't know if you will be making the connecting flight...
But at the same time it gives me something to write about.

A fellow is up at the ticket counter trying to get the dimensions of his exit seat. The ladies are trying to tell him that the seat isn't any bigger but he has more leg room. He can't seem to grasp the concept.
"No, the arm rests are the same height...no, all that is different is the leg room."
Quite amusing.

And I am just starting my trip...I am excited to see what other great conversations this day brings...
