Away and Home
I stare at the lady wanting to take in every detail, hoping she doesn't catch my gaze. She's walking so fast that her laptop bag is bouncing back and fourth against her thigh. She's raising her voice at the unlucky person on the other end of the phone and probably wouldn't noticed anyways.

Title: Great sleeping adventure
Once upon a time, there was a passenger named Gary. Gary is an ordinary guy with the extraordinary talent of being able to sleep anywhere and anytime. He might take a nap on a park bench, take a nap on a noisy bus, or even doze off at a rock concert. But his most legendary talent is the art of sleeping on an airplane. Little did he know that on one fateful day, this gift would take him on an unexpected journey filled with laughter, confusion, and epic adventure. It all started one sunny morning when Gary, a cheerful and humble man, arrived at the airport to catch a flight to Las Vegas. He had been looking forward to this trip for months, imagining a weekend of wild parties, dazzling shows and maybe even a little gambling. Gary is looking forward to coming to the Strip and enjoying it. He's been saving for weeks and is ready to paint the town red. When Gary checked in at the airline counter, he felt a bit dizzy. Anyway, he stayed up late to pack up his luggage. Still, he wasn't too worried. He'd slept through countless takeoffs and landings before, and this flight would be no different—or so he thought. Gary found his seat on the plane, crammed comfortably into an economy class seat by the window. He had fastened his seat belt and was seated in the plush seat when the soft lullaby of the plane's engines began. The gentle vibrations and noise around the cabin were all he needed to fall asleep. Gary closed his eyes, smiled with satisfaction, and in a moment he was in a dream state. Little did Gary know that the flight he boarded was not destined for Las Vegas. Due to an unfortunate mistake at the gate, he accidentally boarded a flight to a completely different city: Seattle. The plane rolled on the runway, and as it soared into the sky, Gary's snoring grew louder. Hours passed, and the crew continued their work without noticing the snoring man in room 14A. Meanwhile, Gary is living out his life's dream: dancing in a flashy Las Vegas casino surrounded by girls performing, neon lights, and loads of chips. He earns a lot of money and lives big. It wasn't until the flight attendants started preparing to land that Gary started moving. The announcement over the radio woke him up and he rubbed his eyes, dazed. He looked out the window and saw the city below, but it wasn't the dazzling Las Vegas skyline he had expected. Panic enveloped Gary when he realized he was heading down to Seattle. The coffee-scented air of the Pacific Northwest filled the cabin, and he could see the Space Needle in the distance. He frantically looked around at the unfamiliar faces of his companions, who were about to disembark. “Sorry,” Gary whispered to the passenger beside him. "Is this Las Vegas?" The man looked at Gary with a puzzled expression. "No, it's Seattle, man." Gary's heart tightened. How the hell did he get to Seattle? He should be in the land of bright lights and 24-hour casinos, not the land of coffee and rain. In a daze, Gary packed up and followed the flow of passengers out of the plane. He approached the airline office, where a nervous-looking employee was trying to manage a long line of frustrated passengers. "Sorry," Gary said with a wry smile. “Looks like I got on the wrong flight. Can you help me get to Las Vegas? The employee sighed and glanced at Gary's boarding pass. "Sir, you're in Seattle now. You need to buy a new ticket to Las Vegas." Gary's wallet vibrated with fear as he handed her his credit card. He couldn't believe it when the clerk charged him an exorbitant amount for a last-minute Sin City ticket. With his new boarding pass in hand, Gary passed security and boarded his flight back to Las Vegas. He couldn't help but laugh at the absurdity of the situation. There he is, an accidental tourist in Seattle, all due to his uncanny ability to sleep. When the plane took off again, Gary couldn't help thinking about this ironic situation. He had gone thousands of miles in the wrong direction, dreaming of adventure in Las Vegas. He's about to start the trip of his life and he hasn't even left the airport yet. When Gary finally arrived in Las Vegas, he was greeted by the twinkling lights of the Strip and the city's unparalleled energy. He checked into his hotel room and headed straight for the casino floor, determined to make up for lost time. Gary sat down at the blackjack table and started betting enthusiastically. He was determined to turn his unexpected detour into a winning streak. When the cards were dealt, he couldn't help but share his crazy story with the other players around the table. "You wouldn't believe what happened to me today," Gary said with a smile. "I fell asleep on the plane to Las Vegas and woke up in Seattle!" The players looked at each other in bewilderment and then burst out laughing. They thought Gary was telling a funny joke. They don't know he's living a life on the wrong side.

Continued from Weekend One It's weekend two and the theme is bringing people together A patron looked past two other people, b-lined to me, and said to me "YOU look like you know your way around here..." She asked me where she could find a certain scent of incense. She chose me, I could not let this woman down- she was getting red-carpet treatment. I offered her my arm, she took it and we went off. We went to one shop, no luck. She was ready to give up and return to her family, but I was not having it. We walked to another shop, one that belongs to a friend of mine, where, frankly, we should have gone first. We passed the Sidequest Stop and Nestor playfully gave us grief about us walking away. I told him we were still on our quest for incense. We went to the shop and got a bunch, and for a great deal. We talked, laughed, discussed her son, and her grand children. We were hanging out together for 15-20 minutes and thoroughly enjoyed each other's company.
