the happiest moment of my life

on the second plane, the two hour flight from mexico city to durango, i was hungrier than i had ever been. i think the hungriest i've ever been in my whole entire life.

the lady was coming around and serving drinks but i didn't want a drink. drinks make me pee and i don't like peeing on the plane.

from the corner of mine eye i saw her handing out white boxes. perfect white squares with a little sticker for peeling back, thus opening up the box.

i looked out the window and the propeller moved so fast it looked like a single sheet of shiny metal. please don't let me die before i open this box.

i was hungry ok?

inside was a blogna sandwich on white bread, a small plastic cup of flan, and a spoon.

i looked out the window and as i watched the clouds pass by i noticed they were all shaped like different animals.

and that was the happiest moment of my life.
