JFK International, Tarmac

I have a guitar, a laptop, nine books and $1700. I am flying one-way, New York to Moscow. I have no return ticket. So, this better work out, otherwise I’m kind of screwed.

We were delayed 45 minutes on the tarmac while we waited for one family who had transferred and gone to the wrong gate. This would never happen in Russia – their incompetence would be rewarded with a night of sleeping on the floor of the terminal. Unless the Russian were rich, then heaven and earth would be moved to keep the plane at bay.

Screw you, America. I’m going somewhere much worse.
