plain

I'm on a plain to chicago.
Yes, a plain. Not a plane as you might imagine. I'm walknig across a flat piece of land hovering just above the earth. The woman next to me is reading this off my laptop. I wonder what she thinks about me writing about her. Maybe we'll exchange a knowing glance and a wink at the baggage claim once we get to the end of this plain. There's no beverage or snack service on this plain and it's quite warm with this lap top on my lap.
A baby screams in the distance.
A man nearby watches seinfeld dvds on his portable polaroid dvd player. Well, he was watching. Now he's asleep. A kid nearby where's a motley crue shirt. Looks pretty new, too. He couldn't be older than 16.
Does he really know what the crue is all about?
I'm going to eat some gummy worms. A man just tried to give me peanuts. I guess this plain has snacks after all.

Goodbye.
