I travel extensively for work. Due to my airline status, I am generally upgraded to first class for most flights. 5-10% of the time, I am seated in my regularly assigned seat. Such was the case flying back from Portland to SLC this week.
Who comes and occupies the middle seat right next to me??? A young man, culminating 36 hours of travel home to Twin Falls, Idaho from Manilla.
Before I put my ear buds in and tune out Elder Dipshit and the rest of the world....we converse for a few minutes.
This kid isn't even released yet and he tells me his next goal is to return to Utah State, finish his degree in Biology, get accepted to Medical School and get married.
I asked him if his girlfriend knew of his plans.
"I don't have a girl friend....I just know that is the next step for me in my life, and god will provide me with a wife".
I felt ill on so many levels.
Thankfully, the plane was at 10,000 ft; I put in my ear buds and checked out.
Made me sick.
