And I'm so ridiculously tired. It's like 3:30 EST time and I know I should try to sleep in the lounge, but I just can't seem to do it.
My flight to Nice is still 2 and a half hours away (I've been here for 2 hours already)...what to do? I can't even seem to make the computer interesting...grr...
But, the trip was gone relatively well so far...no major drama with flights on my side of things, and I even managed to get the bike on the plane for free (a nice smile and a forgetful attendent made that one possible). I'm just feeling some major jet lag...and I know I'm going to have to stay awake all day once I get to Nice...otherwise I'll feel the desperate need to take a nap in the middle of the race on Sunday.
I have a splinter in my finger and I'm obsessing over it and making it much worse than it needs to be. Typical.
I know I should be excited to be in a different country, but I'm just in an airport, you know? Somehow, no matter where you are, airports all seem the same. This one is pretty damn cool though...I'm trying to refrain from spending money though, because I figure the stuff to buy in Nice and Rome and even at the expo will be much more exciting than anything I can buy at any airport...
Alright...this post is boring me as I write it, so I can't imagine anyone will want to read it. Just wanted to check in and let you all know my plane didn't take a nose-dive into the ocean. More soon!
