Sitting in a chair... in the sky

I am typing this from the seat of an airplane en route to Columbus Ohio. I just woke up from a nap (and boy I needed it after getting only 2 hours of sleep!).

I just realized how solitary people are these days. We live in our own little bubbles. The guy next to me on the left is reading a magazine on some kind of tablet pc, I am blogging, and my wife (to my right) is listening to music on yet another electronic device. We flew over the grand canyon, and dani and I were the only ones who looked out the window to marvel at the beauty of God's creation from such an amazing viewpoint. A wise man once said, "you're sitting in a chair... In the SKY"



Dani likes pasta. No really. She likes pasta a lot. We had a layover in Vegas, and when we went to get food, she got not one, but two separate pasta dishes from sabarros. She dropped her fork halfway through. Once we got on the plane the flight attendant was kind enough to craft her a makeshift replacement out of coffee stirrers, straws, and what looks like a band-aid. I thought it was creative. I hope she took a picture of it.

I am looking forward to seeing -dani's- our family when we land in a few hours. We both miss seeing them. Its cool and strange at the same time to have inherited four more parents, a half dozen or so siblings, and a handful of grandparents. My extended family got extended more.

It's awkward typing on a little iPod crunched between two people so, for now I say adieu
