jet plane

i bought my plane ticket today. what a massive chunk of change i had to fork over for that! makes me want to live in europe so i can just go by train or something. instead i live in indianola, ia, a very expensive place to get to apparently.

but the travel agent offered me a piece of gum while i waited for her to get it all squared away. on the gum's package it said "if you only had hot dog flavored gum it would be like like a picnic in your pocket." hot dog flavored gum? even the thought makes me want to barf.

the gum she gave me was mint/watermelon, thank goodness. even though minty watermelon is sort of strange tasting.

anyway. that's all.
