I'm going to continue into my imagination as I travel to Belgium, because I'm sure you are all wondering why I am going to such a place. Plus I'm having fun telling a possibly exciting story.
*note* if you have not read the post 'Here I Am', go read that one first! Otherwise the story would be backward. And reading stories backwards is cheating. Don't even get me started on those people who read the last few pages of a book before they've read the rest. It is a sign of impatience and low moral character!! If the author wanted you to know the end before everything else they would've just put it at the beginning! *cough* humph. Back to the story. Happy, imaginative thoughts...
Here I am, cruising above the clouds in my own row. How lucky am I? No screaming children that you always hear about, no chatty older women (I love them, but this is an overnight flight and I would like to sleep), no one falling asleep on your shoulder, and no one to block the exit route to the bathroom. The last is especially important because they just came through with the drinks. I am very pleased with my cranberry juice/Sprite mixture.
Oh right. Back to why I'm headed to Belgium. It all started with a desire to search out the best chocolate in the world. I immediately headed to Google and typed in 'best chocolate in the world'. Actually, I mistyped it to begin with and it came out 'nrdy vhovolsr in yhr eotlf'. I had placed my hands one key off, so it sounded like I had a mouthful of chocolate while I was trying to figure out what I was searching. Surprisingly, even Google couldn't match any pages with that jumble. I straightened out my hands and got out my real search. One of the suggestions at the bottom said "did you mean, best belgian chocolate in the world"? Well, no. That wasn't what I meant, but hey, those Belgians must know something about chocolate.
I begin searching for Belgian chocolate. Little did I know that Belgian chocolate would come searching for me. One of the sights had a pop-up survey for you to fill out about the website. Usually I just close out of those, but for some reason, I really had liked the site. So I filled it out. But I didn't know that it immediately entered me into a sweepstakes for a 2 week vacation in Belgiam. Apparently no one fills those little surveys out, because somehow, as you may have guessed, I WON! Weird, right? Let that be a lesson to you: always fill out the annoying surveys. I can't promise a trip to Belgium will always be the result though.
That's how I got here, on a free flight to a free stay in Belgium. I'm going to be taste-testing some of the best chocolate in the world!
Why does that tall, dark-haired guy keep walking by my row? You can only go to the bathroom so many times. And when I have to go to the bathroom, I don't stop by to chat with strangers. Which is exactly what he did. Asked where I was headed. I told him, "Europe". Hopefully he gets that hint. Buddy, I don't know what your game is, but my bubble is not only for physical distance, but also auditory silence. Stay out of my bubble! I'm going to sleep now, at least until we land in France. Then I have a few hours to spend before my connecting flight to Brussels. Night ya'll. Where's my pillow?
