1/29/10 12pm Tokyo



I didn't realize how scared I was of flying. Maybe it was the crazy flight to Bali, but now when I get on a plane i start to panic like I never have before. I never used to do that. Maybe i am passing that young guy feeling on invincibility. But with a few beer in me the turbulence doesn't through me off kilter too much. I was able to catch about an hour of sleep before some security guy wanted to search my bag and pat me down. I got up and got something to eat a grabbed a few beers to get me to sleep before my flight. It was unsuccessfully, I was pretty much a walking zombie for the next five hours. I stumbled on the plane where i listened to music and watched some movies. Japan Airlines is so fantastic with their customer service. They offered me a few more beers through out the flight that still didn't get me to sleep. 11 hours later I landed in SFO safely. Travis picked me up and I talked his ear off for about an hour. I continued to stay up for another 10 hours before I crashed for about 15 hours. I believe I stayed up for around 38 hours.
