I've come to love the few times I can hang out and people-watch at airports without any other demands on my time. Its about the only guilt-free place to just hang out there still is.

I despise traveling, but I am an amazing traveler. With so much that can (and will) get messed up on flights, etc., it's best to just roll with it.
