It’s Beginning To Look A Lot Like Vacation

Dear Denver International Airport,

You have the best people watching a girl could ask for at 6:30 in the bight
and early morning. Example: the guy sitting across from me sleeping with his
mouth open and his lady friend a few seats down talking on the phone to
her friend tell whoever they are how they’re currently in a fight because she
wants sex more often that he does. Not to mention the kid sitting next to me
has been starring at me for the last 3 minutes straight, talk about a victim of
social awkwardness in the making Here I was all upset seeing as I had to get
up at 4:15 this morning to finish packing and get my little body ready for vacation,
but oh MAN you and the people that travel through you are priceless. Thank you
DIA, I truly thank you.

Sincerely,
The Girl Next Door

Hey-o it’s that time again… hello sweet, vacation. Where am I going you might ask, Nampa, Idaho of course. Now I’m guessing your thinking to yourself something along the lines of “Dam that’s pretty much my dream vacation, I’m quite jealous” I know, i know, the moment someone makes mention of a personal trip the first location that pops into your mind is middle-of-nowhere Idaho. False. Trust me, plenty of my coworkers have mocked me for my choice of destination vacation.
A few months ago I was making this same exact trip except at that time I was going for a boy (how cliche of me right?) and even though that very much did not go anywhere good, I made some wonderful friends there that I quickly called family. One of those couples I had actually met briefly when I lived in Cali through a boy I was dating at the time (that one also failed miserably), yet they were closer to him and seeing how I became the devil’s spawn once we broke up, the couple and I lost touch until my previous trip took place.
Thanks to my former job, I was feeling quite burnt out a while and felt the need to get away so the plans begun to form between the three of us then quickly added two more- one being a girl who had known the couple in Cali (and now we’ve become long distance fb besties) and another guy who we all knew from Cali as well who just so happens to now live an hour away from me now. Dear god, it’s a small, strange world. Five people who at one time lived in good ol’ Redding California now merged to Colorado and Idaho.
Anyhow, sitting in a black leather chair at gate 35C in the Denver airport, I’m wondering if it’d be easier to try and take a nap to make up for the lack of sleep I’ve gotten in the past week or if I should just start drinking now. 7 in the morning isn’t too early to start down the vodka is it? (I didn’t think so) If nothing else it’ll make for some great entertainment for not only myself but for the entire plane.. you’re welcome.
Ok, ok perhaps I’ll try the shut eye thing first and if that doesn’t work I’ll resort to becoming an early morning alcoholic. In the mean time I’ll continue my people watching and jam out to Kreayshawn’s Gucci Gucci and keep my fingers crossed that I get a really entertaining travel buddy to sit next to.

Keep in tune kiddos… I have a feeling this trip is going to provide some pretty epic stories.
