Somewhere Over the Atlantic

It's pitch dark on the plane and everyone else is sleeping soundly. The Dutch stewardesses float by like ships in the night. Every one of them is tall and blonde. I'm not sure whether this reflects on KLM's hiring strategy or Holland's level of genetic diversity. Maybe all of Holland is descended from the same small group of Viking colonizers...

I passed out for 2 hours after take off and now I'm wide awake, feeling fresh as the proverbial daisy. I'm going to feel like pushing up daisies if I have to navigate Amsterdam's airport on 2 hours' sleep.
