“ugh they make you take off your shoes too?”
that was the thought in my head…

…as i was awkwardly taking off all my stuff at tsa.
the trip in was already annoying enough,
due to my brilliant idea of taking the train,
but now they got me getting naked to make sure I’m not a suicide bomber.
why didn’t anyone tell me so many cute wolves worked at the airport???
the ramp wolves in the orange vests were on a whole new kind of fine.
there was this one wearing all black tho.
he walked in the gate and in my mind,
he walked in like this:

(^where is this bolo gif from?)
he was caramel and muscular.
i don’t know what he does at the airport,
but i wanted to do him.
it had me wondering if i needed to get a job down there?
i remembered the commute i had in and a heavy “nah” marqueed across my head.

the take off was a little bumpy.
choppy and full of turbulence.

i’m not use to flying so that was an experience i wanted to forget.
once it got to a comfortable altitude,
they told us they had direct tv and we could watch anything we wanted.
out of all the channels,
they didn’t have abc so i didn’t get to see the american music awards.
i ended up watching broncos vs pats on one tv,
and rhoa on the other.
why the dude next to me answer a call when we were landing?
i wanted to punch him.
i listened to claire de lune as sm suggested when i officially touched down.
a sense of peace came over me.
i wanted to bring that feeling with me while down here.

karaoke looks great!
we hugged for what felt like a long time.
it felt good to be around someone i knew.
someone that was familiar to me.
i nearly cried,
but im sure she would have laughed.
her crib is huge.
i have my own bathroom and walk in closet.
i know.
cool guest room swag.
it is different from my apartment back up north.
she even stocked the fridge with food.
one thing i noticed?
the air smells better down here.
clean.
fresh.
no potential airborne diseases.
i think my allergies are starting acting up while writing this.
its also really quiet.
no police sirens.
no music from cars.
no hoodrats running the streets.
none of that.
just calmness.
the sound of the breeze.
i love it.
so this will be my new home for at least 3 weeks.
maybe four.
i’m going to make the best of it.
