travel / flight delays

I asked for updates and got poetry instead

I ate a pretzel that cost like a souvenir

I became best friends with the charging outlet

I boarded cheerfully and sat hopefully

I bought a neck pillow that supports my regrets

I explored every terminal like a budget vacation

I found a quiet corner that immediately attracted toddlers

I guarded my seat like it had Wi‑Fi royalty

I landed late and clapped internally

I learned the airport floor has several personalities

I napped upright and invented a new yoga pose

I negotiated with the weather and lost politely

I promised to pack snacks like a seasoned traveler next time

I rebooked myself with the confidence of a travel agent

I refreshed the app until my thumb fell asleep

I sprinted to the gate to wait two extra hours

I timed my bathroom break perfectly to miss an announcement

I took a victory lap when the new gate was the old gate

I tracked my bag like a suspicious character arc

I watched the board change from ‘On Time’ to ‘Story Time’
