I won’t talk about prepping for my Escape From Boredom trip too much. Let’s just say I was really tired, and that preparing for a Man Brooch debut launch at the same time, was, well, a hefty job.
But somehow – with help from some great friends - I managed to get enough of it done and hold myself upright for the 2 x 1 hour lineups at the airport. (AAHHHHH! Damn you terrorists!)
I was so tired, all I wanted to do was sleep on the plane, so you can imagine how my face dropped when I saw what was sitting behind me in the next row.
“No, not a baby. Come on!”
And sure enough, it was. Not only was it a screaming baby, but it was the new quick-to-tantrum I want to walk toddler from Duracell.
I endured 5 hours of non-stop hell and turbulence created by the little kicker.
The little sleep I had was interrupted by the pilot who woke me up to announce we were flying over the Grand Canyon.
Oh, great.
Still, I looked. And was glad I did as the view brought a smile to my face. The beauty, the grandeur, the rugged ruggedness.
Exquisite.
