This is not a man with a blog.
I’m traveling and delayed in some random airport in the Southwest. A lot of weird stuff gets said in airport bars.

I wake up in the ex-urbs of Chicago, I will go to sleep in Washington DC. My business traveler zen is serving me well. I continue to fight an intestinal bug, miss my wife and son, and after arriving late to the airport, I was selected for extra special screening. I felt no stress, “this…
