Fly By

I flew Delta internationally for the first time just after the March '11 Japan earthquake. That bit of info was irrelevent, I just wanted a way to quickly remind myself where/why I was flying.

Anyway, Delta did this interesting thing where they served ice cream as a mid-flight snack. I've never been served ice cream on a plane, ever. It just seems like a bad idea...especially an ice cream sandwich. Cut to 20 minutes later after the flight attendants have passed out neatly wrapped disaster-sandwiches, I'm woken up to something touching my arm. I look at my arm...see ice cream...I think, "hmm. That's weird". I look up at the kid sitting next to me to find that he decided to use the ice cream sandwich as an exfoliating mask.

My thought, "This can't be right."
