It is 7:00 PM Pacific time, I think. This has been the longest day in the world. I started out this morning waking up in a hotel at the JFK airport and I have been landed twice now at SFO. I landed here first thing this morning and then went to SNA and now I am back at SFO.
The flight this morning was great! It was a 767-300 with the newly configured business class seats. The guy next to me slept most of the way and Gadgetfreak sat a row behind me. I read about 15 chapters in Genesis and then I watched Mad Money and I Am Legend. They served a bland breakfast with some kind of omelet. I am scared to think of how they prepare the omelet. Each time I have cooked one, they never turned out looking like this one. I guess they use powered eggs or something. I downed about 4 cups of coffee along with the OJ, so I made more than one trip to the outhouse in the sky.
The scenery was also nice flying here to SFO since we flew over the Rockies.
After arriving in SFO for the first time today, I quickly jumped on the Eagle flight to SNA. There were only 7 people on my flight, so I think that was the most empty flight I have ever been on. Needless to say, I don't think this was a profitable flight for AA. This flight was about an hour and I read about 50 pages of "Every Man's Battle".
I arrived right on time to SNA and I was able to hang out with Jeff Jordan for a few hours. He picked me up within a few minutes of my arrival and we headed out for lunch. He took me to this really cool restaurant out on this pier over the water. It was awesome watching the surfers and smelling the cool ocean breeze. It really made me miss California. The weather was perfect, as always, and I got to spend about 3 hours of much needed time away from an airport. Jeff and I caught up on all sorts of stuff. We talked about Reinhardt, well, Firewheel and all that was going on there. We also discussed women and their roles in the church; whether or not they can be pastors.
Jeff dropped me off back at the airport and off I was back to SFO where I am now. This flight had a whoppin 12 passengers on board!
Well, the part of the journey that I have been dreading is coming up. I have a 6 hour flight in coach from SFO to MIA. It doesn't depart 8:50 PT and it arrives in MIA at 5:05 ET. I am dead tired right now, so I hope I am able to sleep most of the way on this flight. Once I arrive to MIA, I get on a flight to DFW and then back to SNA and then finally home to DFW! The next 16 hours I have on these flights just might push me over the edge. No more first class. All coach!!!
I will attempt to blog again from MIA, but I have a feeling that I will be completely out of it. I hope I don't loose it on these flights and cause some kind of disruption. Monica, you will be my one phone call, so make sure your phone is not on silent!
See you guys soon!
