Up For Air
OK, my New Year’s hangover wasn’t THAT bad (to keep me from posting for over a week). I just had a really intense week of work last week, one of those where you really don’t feel that any waking minute is your own, it’s owed to some commitment. I’m an accounting software consultant, and at this time of year many of my clients are performing year-end procedures and getting set for the new year’s transactions, and there are often issues.
However, my mom is on me to start posting again (Hi, Mom!), so I’d better get my act together.
I’m in Tucson for 3 days, just flew in last night. I changed planes in Phoenix, and as my Phoenix - Tucson plane taxied out for take-off, the flight attendant deadpanned, “In the unlikely event of a water landing between Phoenix and Tucson, your seat cushion will serve as a flotation device.”
I think a lot of University of Arizona students were returning to school. While waiting to pick up my luggage, I was standing near three kids, a man and two women, and it became apparent that they were discussing the strangest or most precarious places they’d had sex. One woman said it was while her mother was sleeping in the adjacent bedroom; the man said in a movie theatre, with witnesses, and that actually two couples did it at the same time; the most startling, for me, was the other woman’s story about doing it in a moving car - she steered while her partner worked the gas pedal.
Anyway, that has to serve as my entertainment so far this trip.
