the traveller

Its friggin' 3am and I find myself in the abyss that is Dubai International Airport.
Normally, 3 am wouldn't evoke such animosity.
Normally, 3am represents bliss, with hot cup of coffee, in front of the computer or under the duvet with a good book.
But, when 3 am represents the first of a 9 hour lay over, after a 10 hour flight..its really, really...
*fill in with the most gratifying, explosive expletive*!!!!!

Yes..this is a post that, is in essence a rant and one that is not for the faint of heart!!!
So, you have been warned!
I'm standing in what appears to be a corridor like yoke in the middle of somewhere in the airport . It is extremely narrow and the computers are set up back to back,thus obliterating all personal space....and right now some joker behind me is standing with his arse poised in such a way, that it is not only obstructing the walkway, but making sporadic contact with me and the person next to him!!!! WTF*(^&(*^%*^#%@(!?!!!!

Oh and also... th screens for some reason are perched up slightly beyond my reach... so this angst ridden post is being typed entirely on tip-toe.!!! (Yes, yes .... I'm probably just short)

Oh and also....the friggin connection here is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo slowwwwwwwwwwwwww.... think of snail moving in slow motion.... HAHAHAH...is that even remotely funny???? At this point I don't know ... I'm just HAHAH-ing in surrender to the brain and body freeze that is currently underway.

Hmm... those are the main highlights ..so far..... *deep breath in...and out*
Sigh... despite these hysterics, I am delighted and excited to be heading home... in about 15 hours. As they say- No pain, No gain.
So, though I know I shouldn't be complaining, I thought I'd be cheeky and indulge myself.

I hope you were as amused reading this as I was writing it... heheh....

I'm now going to go and pacify myself with a Venti White Chocolate Cappucino in Starbucks!!!!
