girl at large

I'm back! What a journey (!), and it's really just begining…
The huge suitcases (2) met the wieght limit (70 lbs each) by just a hair–after I removed a few things at the counter into an impromptu carry-on. Ruby was boxed and loaded, tagged and transfered, customs checked, off-loaded and re-loaded, lugged and finally, let loose. To pee on our keeper's carpet. Oops.
Flying over the eastern seaboard at night—an unexpected pleasure–the lights of the city grids, harbors and highways were gorgeous —orange,white and blue designs on black out into the horizon. If only my seat mate had been so attractive.
Everything—-everything!—-is so LARGE. Cars, sandwiches, roads, buildings, –all of it, the scale–I'm thrown. Don't even ask me about the frightening muffins.
