Here I am at 2:30 am Italy time (somewhere around 6:30 pm Seattle time) and my insomnia has finally kicked in, big time. Not too bad I'm thinking for being gone since Wed and it is now Sunday. It took a while for it to catch up. I wonder if it has been happening during the day... (or night if I were on the west coast) and I just didn't notice since my days are screwed up with the 9 hour time change? Probably.
Here's my trip thus far:
Day one - first mia culpa - trying to get through screening at Seattle airport.
I'm doing good, no big issues, I'm checking my bag so I don't have anything in plastic baggies to screen. I'm walking through the x-ray machine and the TSA guy is shaking his head at me. Not understanding, I keep going. He gets this funny look on his face and holds up a sign that says, "Do Not Enter." I stop mid-stride and shake my head back at him, shrug my shoulders and say, "what?" He promptly points at my feet and says, "your shoes." DOH! I forgot to remove my dumb shoes. I must have traveled at least 20 times since 9-11 and never forgot them before. I wonder if this is a sign of things to come.
