Sarah E. Moffett

Moffett Meanderings. En route to Minneapolis, Mn.

Benefits of air travel.

1. An airplane is the one place it is acceptable to eat Pringles and drink bad Chilean Chardonnay.
2.  In a word: incommunicado.
3. Finally had a moment to read my mail and answer some correspondences…from May.
4. Obtain reinforcement for my blissful happiness to not have children via the screaming 8 month old behind my seat.
5. Learn useful facts like “Moffett” is a food in Jamaica, or so said the passenger next to me.
6. Matthew Pearl is genius. And at 35,000 feet I’m in love (again) with Edgar Allan Poe, which will probably be true at sea level, but it sounds better if I can blame it on the altitude.
7. An airplane napkin has as many uses as a Swiss Army knife, but with TSA approval.
8. A new appreciation for bathroom facilities to be on the ground.
9. In comparison to airline food, airport food is 5 stars.
10. Having joy brought to my professional heart by hearing a nearby seatmate sneer about their “dirty, sleazy lawyer.”

[Listening to very obnoxious woman three tables over at the Marquette Hotel Lobby, who is swearing at her secretary, drinks companion, and husband, simultaneously.]
