well it’s 1 a.m. here in Cairo and i’ve been awake since 6 o’clock this morning.
and that’s just the beginning of my day!
today i look forward to over 24 hours of traveling as i slowly but surely make my way around the globe. i’ll be flying the “wrong way” (like toilets flushing in Australia). The “wrong way” can also be referred to as the “make the earth go back in time” way. Unfortunately, it doesn’t work quite the same way that it did in the Superman movies (incidentally neither does wearing your underwear on the outside), as it is not the entire earth that is sent back in time, but rather only me who is forced to suffer through an entire 36 hours of Friday, December 15th, Groundhog Day style.
One hour in, and I already don’t like what I see.
Wish me luck, beautific ones.
Airplane food and the souls of United employees will be my only sustenance in the coming hours.
