After a long trip to
Dallas, that was also not quite long enough, we left my buddy's apartment
around 7am. I downed my leftover mexican food, took my morning medication, and
departed for the airport, listening to audiotapes along the way. i then sat in
the airport for 5 hours, eating some gourmet oatmeal from Cereality and
drinking some Peet's Best coffee.
although I thoroughly
anticipated a long and boring plane ride, I had made a silent prayer the
previous night that I was sitting next to somebody interesting. It was
answered. A realtor from Georgia who have been living in Texas for the past 20
years. She and I talked for the entire 3 hour long plane ride. As it turns out,
she was coming to Lancaster, a small town about 1/2 hour from where I live, to
spend some time with one of her High School girlfriends. This was probably the
first time I heard of anybody willingly going to Lancaster or any part of the
surrounding area. I encourage her to keep in touch with me about her Journeys,
exchanged a hug and contact information, and then went on our separate ways.
now with a completely
drained bank account, I arrived back home. It's been real Dallas, and I will
miss you dearly until I see you again.
