I am currently sitting alone in a very nice hotel room next to the Cincinnati airport. I'm supposed to fly back to school tomorrow, but the weather report is saying another snow storm will be hitting tonight. After briefly considering the options, my parents and I decided it would be best for me to just stay in a hotel by the airport tonight, so we won't have to worry about the roads tomorrow. Initially, I was a little sad. The idea of being alone in a hotel room on Valentine's Day seems slightly more tragic than just being alone in my bedroom at home. However, my mood has significantly changed. I have a king-sized bed, a plasma screen TV, a couch, a big comfy bathrobe, and a big bathroom (no tub though). I also have 2 ELLE magazines, nail polish, my iPod, my iPhone, and my computer. The possibilities here are endless.First up: jumping on the bed while blasting Wild World* and wearing a bathrobe. Success!
I wish I had a tub, but now I just really want to clog the shower drain and fill it up like a giant tank. And then swim around in it like Daryl Hannah. I have a feeling this endeavor would be considerably less successful than the bed-jumping, but who knows, I've got a long night.
I'm also considering making a fort.
