The Flight to Paradise

We are now... well, to be honest, I have no idea where we are. But we've been flying for about 6 hours now... I think. I was sleeping for most of it. Or at least, trying to. The lady sitting in front of me is pretty abnoxious. She's been talking real loud since she sat down! Some time about 2 hours ago, she managed to spill her cups (yes, cups. As in, plural) of beer on the seats, and instantly blamed the lady sitting in front of her for having her seat too far leaned back. She went on about it for 30 minutes, to anyone that so much as looks at her. "Look around! Everyone else's seats are upright! Her seat was too far back!"  

While I was asleep, she talked super loud to the guy next to him (whom, I assume, is her husband) about the movies that were on. I remember her saying something about... the Social Network Channel? Anyway, everytime she talked, I thought there was an announcement, and perked my ears up and listened.

On another note, it being 10.30ish now, I hope Charlie is coping okay at home by himself. I hope he's been fed and played with, though I am sure he's probably in no mood to play or to eat. I had to put him in the laundry along with his bed before I left this afternoon. He was very unwilling. I miss him already.

I am looking forward to finding out mum and dad's progress on looking at the phones. I really want the milestone 2. I can't stop thinking about it! Hopefully I'll be more distracted from it once I get to St Louis.


I think there is 4 more hours on this flight before we start to descend. It's dark out. I was watching the moon and the stars earlier. The stars were so bright and beautiful. Unfortunately, Im sitting at a seat that is right in the middle of the wing, so there isn't much room to look down. However, I did look at the international flight route map, and looks like from Auckland to Los Angeles, it's pretty much just ocean anyway. Boring!

The motion sickness pill has made me pretty drowsy.  I cant seem to stay up for long at a time. My eye lids are heavy. Not to mention my eyes feel super dry too!  I'm not sure if wearing my glasses for the first time in a week would help with that or make it worse. I guess we'll see!

Anyway, just trying to find something to pass the time with. Though, I'll probably just end up sleeping again.
