Top Ten Things I Wanna See At The Airport This Weekend

You know how the airport is great for people watching? Well, I'm flying home to the Sunshine State this weekend for 10 days of sand and sun. I hope that somewhere between MSP, ATL and TPA, I see the following 10 things:

10. A family with a minimum of 4 crying children and 3 strollers.

9. At least 4 people frantically trying to find an outlet to plug in their laptop while they waste their $7.99 spent on Sprint WIFI.

8. 1 disgruntled teen-age girl wearing over-sized jeans walking 7 steps behind her parents and her 8 year old brother.

7. 1 aunt greeting her long-lost neices and nephews with red lipstick kisses.

6. 3 people contemplating whether or not a tube of lipstick is smaller than 3oz and can therefore be put into a zip-lock baggie and brought onto the plane.

5. A minimum of 8 people complaining that the lines to get through security are too long and their flight is in 15 minutes...and they just arrived 1.7 minutes before.

4. 47 really uncomfortable people trying not to touch each other or trip over each other's rolling bags on the tram that takes them from one end of the terminal to the other.

3. 6 drunk single people at the airport Chili's.

2. 1 underappreciated dad attempting to carry a Macy's bag with ripped handles full of crap and a "fold-up" stroller.

1. An entire family (consisting of a minimum of dad, mom 2 boys and a girl - possibly even a grandfather thrown in for good measure) wearing too-large green wool sweaters with red shoulders and giant white snowflakes in a black stripe across the chest.
