A case of the early morning jones

I hate early morning flights. Argghhhhh...... I had a 7 am flight leaving from the busiest airport in the world. So you know I had to wake up at least three hours before to make it in time. I never check in luggage because I'm gone for a day or two. So instead of having to deal with missing luggage and my bags not making the flight I was on, I just pack a few clothes in a duffel bag and get the other stuff I get from the hotel. Ladies doesn't it suck now having to check your make-up bag, favorite perfume, and hair products with the chance of them getting lost. I remember when this whole thing started, I had to trash at least $100 worth of MAC makeup because I thought I could find to smuggle them through (typical nigerian behavior). See how that turned out.

Before I get sidetracked, I park my car at the south terminal daily parking garage and rush to check-in at the delta self-service kiosk. As I am finishing up, this guy walks up to me and goes "Hey, how are you this morning? I saw you walking in and I was wondering if I could talk to you for a minute." Okay, like I said earlier, even with 10 cups of coffee, nothing's going to make me a nice person on a Monday morning at 5.30am. I looked at him like he had said the most absurd thing I had heard in years and just muttered under my breath "I'm kinda like in a hurry" and walked off. I glanced back and he looked kinda cute. I wanted to kick myself but the damage had been done.

Guys I know you see a decent girl sometimes and you may want to holla. You muster enough courage to walk up to her and she blows you off before you even speak. We may just be having the early morning jones or having a bad hair day. It's always something or the other. Don't think it is you (which might be the case sometimes). Maybe I just brushed off a potential boyfriend, husband, best-friend. I'll never know. But trust me this wasn't the right day or the right time to find out.
