Ah. The airport look. The look that screams “this was the heaviest stuff that didn’t fit in my suitcase, so I’m wearing all of it!” The one day of your trip that it’s not required to look fabulous, because you’ll likely change the second you arrive at your destination. Let’s break it down.
I’m wearing:
- The only pair of jeans I packed
- The only sweater I packed
- A watch, so I don’t have to keep pulling out my cell phone to make sure I haven’t missed my flight while browsing the airport bookstore
- Boots, because they didn’t fit in my suitcase
- Hair in braids, because it’s early and my hairdryer was already packed
- Bright under eyeliner to mask the giant dark circles hiding underneath
I’m currently sitting at my gate in SeaTac airport armed with a bagel breakfast sandwich, a bottle of water, and an eagerness for airplane naps I can’t even describe. VidCon is going to be a whirlwind of excitement, of friends, of parties, of events and laughter and memories – but right now, this 2 1/2 hour flight is beckoning me with a soft caress and promise of upright eye-resting, and that is the greatest thing I can imagine.
It’s been a long week, and it’s only Wednesday.
I can’t wait to see everyone this week! VIDCON, HERE I COME!
