A Single Step - 05/08/2011

We finally made it! In business class no less - we're flying in style. As I sipped my mimosa I realized that I couldn't reach the seat in front of me with my toes outstretched; the same mimosa I ended up having to pound entirely too quickly as the plane, a 747 (The Whale, to those in the business) left the gate. The flight attendant politely asked if she could take my half-full (!) cup. I looked at her, nonplussed. I looked at my cup, heartbroken. I looked back at her, resolute. I drained my glass, choked, and have been coughing throughout the taxi. This bodes well for Koh Phangan.
