Highlight of my trip so far
I'm in the Dayton airport and Jerome the Laptop is plugged into the bottom plug of an outlet shared with one of those cell phone battery boosters that they have in airports. While I do not consider myself particularly strong at estimation, I don't think it would be exaggerating to guess that about 50% of the people who walk past actually remark out loud, "Look, cell phone recharging." The number is pretty impressive, considering how many of the other 50% are travelling alone and are therefore probably only remarking it inside their head, instead of to their travel partners. This is what people get excited about around here.
(Of course, my poll may be slightly biased by the current conditions: I'm pretty sure there are people in Dayton who are still without power after last week's storms, so the possibility of recharging cell phones may be exciting and novel and at the forefront of people's minds.)
A haiku I wrote about the trip so far:
O brave TSA!
Protecting us from liquids
But not terrorists
(This haiku is not entirely accurate, as I forgot to remove my bag o' liquids from my carryon and the TSA didn't notice. So I'm not even protected from those.)
God, I'm bored.

Yay ! I'm so glad that you are back that I am going to finally watch Dr Horrible thing on my teeth gnashingly slow loading computer . (Hey. why is is so quiet on this comment area? This is spooky.
Highschool moe has turned into a movie musical convert. Do you have any recommends? We watched State Fair the other day. Both versions. The Pat Boone/Ann Margaret one was horrible, but the 1940s one was pretty funny.)
