Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Fun! Details? I've never sung karaoke, but we always talk about doing it. And yet... haven't.

This was kind of a low-stress way to do it: We rented a room in a bar with a karaoke set-up. So more expensive, but less public. In real bar karaoke, I hardly ever sing a solo, but in the room, I did the second song. Generally, I like to go to places with karaoke, and just sing along with the people "officially" doing the songs.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Poor Gus. "Great. Another exciting adventure in sitting."

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

All of recorded history has passed by since the "flight will be delayed" announcement. The original announcement was in, I think, Aramaic. Languages have changed so much, since then.

Hmmm. Renting a room. That might be a way to ease into it. Hmmm.

OK, think I should be sleeping now. 'Night.

Hope they let you leave before the Sun goes supernova (or whatever that's called), Gus.

I think Tom Hanks did a movie similar to this recently. Something about living in an airport for a really long time…

Poor stuck-in-the-airport Gus. You'll make it out!!!

You still have your passport, right?

Gus, on Paul's flight between China and Japan, that's what they were showing.

Which was funny, because his flight from Japan to China was delayed. By about two days. Due to typhoon.

He spent the first 24 hours of the delay trapped in the Osaka airport.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Ryan should really have more experience and know better.

I KNOW. Plus, drunken swimming aside, what if an evil doer wandered by and thought "ooh, drunken girl. I do believe I shall do evil to her."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Speaking of Typhoon -- Lee, do you think they were talking about a branch of "our" restaurant on The OC? For all value of "our" that don't involve having eaten there. Yet.

I hope you manage to take off before a glacier covers the airport, Gus. Have a good trip. It will be good to have you in a closer timezone.
