It's okay to people watch at the Airport

Airports never stop amusing me. I love them because they get me home in a decent amount of time and it is probably one of the most entertaining things I do all week. I don't mind traveling alone in them at all but they are much more entertaining with a sidekick. But anyways..

Why I love airports:

-People watching. From observing to what people choose to wear on the plane to what people are talking about is hilarious. It boggles my mind when people wear HEELS on the plane. WHY? Also, I love when people get home from a vacation in mexico or something in the bright orange flowery button up shirts with cornrows and a very dark tan-- don't get me wrong, I HAVE DONE IT-- it feels great to show off to people (yes, you know people are looking at you with jealousy) thinking.. yes I did just get home from a hot AWESOME vacation in the sun.. why would I wear a jacket when it is 10 degrees outside???

I personally do my best people watching with my tunes plugged in as I slide past on the moving walk... I always have the LONGEST layovers.. so I take my time.. sit in the food court and just stare.. don't you dare judge me.. you do it too.

-Cinnabon. Nothing like getting a couple days worth of calories in one delicious hot cinnamon roll.. mmmmm. I have never seen a Cinnabon outside of the airport.. I always have to wait until I get there.. but I guess that is a good thing.

-Security. Nothing like getting frisked because I chose to wear the baggy sweats pants today.. and yes.. it was by an old lady.

-Reunions.. I seriously wanna cry when I see friends/families reunite. They run and hug and cry and laugh. Ahhh it's precious.

-Sleeping. Traveling is exhausting and I don't know about you.. but I can usually find myself able to fall asleep in any position on a plane or in a chair at the airport. I have even passed out on the floor at a gate a couple times. Its great that I can sleep.. but the worst part is waking up with half of my body dead. ALSO when other people fall asleep.... lots of people sleep with their mouths open...haha.

ahh flying is great. I recommend it.
