Writing offline on my phone, due to laziness & the sheer amount of stuff piled atop Pangur Ban in my carry-on. I got myself a ticket on the $10 shuttlebus into Indianapolis, but didn’t pay enough attention to note that…

Sitting In Terminal 5 At LAX, Feeling Basically Human
So far, things have been uneventful. There was the guy who didn’t want to get off the AirBus at the Ferry Building/Britomart end, and needed to be persuaded by the on-site security. I’m guessing that alcohol may be a factor…

All About The Games. And, I Guess, The Benjamins.
