flyin' high... :)

so here i am, up however many ft in the air... about an hour (or even less!) away from san diego! ...and i'm pooped. :P i'm ready to walk, for one thing- it's been like 5 hrs. (not including the 30 seconds i walked up the aisle and back... ha!) i got to the airport at around 1:30pm, checked in, went through security, etc... then right as i was getting ready to board, a girl getting on the same flight asked me if i went to blacksburg, and of course i told her i had. truth is, i recognized her... it was lauren billingsley. we came to the conclusion that we had known each other as kids, and that our parents were probably friends. turns out, she was on her way out of the country for the semester... i keep forgetting where, but it's somewhere in eastern europe and it starts with a b. :) i'll remember it sooner or later! ;) it was cool to talk to her, though! we talked for a bit after we got off in dc, too!
i'm really hoping i have wifi while in cali, because i want to be able to post this asap!
also, i just started reading 'the last song' by nicholas sparks... i'm already on like the hundredth page or so... it's a great book so far! another thing i've done on the plane is i started to knit a black scarf. it's the pattern i got from barb for christmas in 2007... and i'm making it out of the same wool/yarn that i made all those hats out of last year or so. it's a super chunky yarn, so it'll be good! and then i'm going to edge it with something! :)
10:17pm est / 7:17pm pst - another half an hour or so left in the flight... :/ guess i should probably set all my clocks to pst now! geez- it feels like i've been on this plane for days! :P i really shouldn't complain though- it's been a really smooth flight, there have even been times where i sort of forgot we were in the air! there have been a few very minor rough spots though... but, i guess that's to be expected! :)
