Right now, I'm sitting on my flight from Portland to Denver... and I think I'm ready to go home.

I did have a lot of fun on the trip, but I missed my privacy. You see, my family is one of those families that enjoy tagging along for all of the experiences. Add to that, they don't understand my inner desires to wander out and find some show at the theatre, or find a club to pick up women, or whatever.

And, somehow, I didn't get my "Jack in the Box" fix, even though there was one only a couple of blocks away from my sister's apartment. "I don't like their food," or "It wasn't anything special," was enough to stay away... but I didn't get enough alone time to wander in and order something... anything!

So, no Jack in the Box love. Not mine! =^(

So far, the flight's not too bad. Normally, I dread sitting in the center seat, but it really isn't bad at all today. To my left is a lovely brunette who is flying to see her boyfriend in Iowa, and has spent most of the flight sleeping.

On my right, sits a lovely blonde with gorgeous eyes reading Cosmo. It took a little bit, but before long we were chatting it up. She's a bartender visiting a friend in Denver... and looking forward to her night on the town. The longer we talk, the more friendly she gets. Before long, I find out that she loves pop and country music, has lived in Oregon all of her life, and has no boyfriend.

Now, there's just a certain je ne sais quoi about a pretty young lady who peruses the sexy articles in Cosmo, yet has no boyfriend... and a little something more when she talks to me. All in all, I'd say it was a good experience... and if I hadn't had to work tomorrow, I'd have to tell her she couldn't handle me! =^)

So, things are looking good for my "inner game," all those months of staying in will pay off... which is nice.

I have so much to do when I get home. I think that my week away was something I really needed to do, but on the other hand, with my upcoming scheduled vacation in two weeks, I ... let's just say that I'm definitely not spending enough time at home! I guess I need to make a pact with myself... no more trips!

Besides, if I'm at home I can finally finish getting my life back together. Everything I've been working on for the last several months is on the verge of happening... but if I don't see these things through, I'm only cheating myself.

As 'A' keeps telling me, I deserve to be happy! =^) For now, I'll just enjoy my flight!
