来日

Hey, everyone!

Just to let you know, I made it to Tokyo safely.

The flight was fairly uneventful—I even made it through security without being pulled out of line for a pat down!  I cannot remember the last time that happened while I was flying in the US.  I guess I looked less threatening than usual today?  Oh well, I’m not complaining.  Since nobody thought I was carrying weapons today, the most exciting thing that happened on the flight was that some guy thought I was an unaccompanied child???  I know I look young, but I don't think I look THAT young.

By the way, Delta's in-flight service totally trumps United's, 'cause they let you pick what movie you want to watch when instead of just running four movies constantly and making you skip between channels all the time, trying to figure out when one of them is starting.

Anyway, I have now reached the "everything sucks and I feel like I'm going to die" stage of sleep deprivation* so I think I am going to pass out and pretend that it's totally normal to go to sleep at 9 p.m.  It is, right?  Totally normal.

*Stages of sleep deprivation:

Not sleep deprived

Getting tired

Okay, pretty tired

EVERYTHING IS HILARIOUS

Wait, no, EVERYTHING SUCKS

Everything sucks and I feel like I'm going to die
