FINDING LOVE AT 39,000 FEET

One holiday season I flew from San Francisco to the Philippines to visit my parents when I was in college. I was very much looking forward to seeing my parents and visiting the PI again. The holiday season is absolutely the best time of the year to visit the Philippines because the temperatures are in the 70s-80s with low humidity. Otherwise, the temperatures would be in the mid-90s with high humidity as many of you know.

Something quite unexpected occurred on the flight that I will never forget. While I write down my rambling thoughts and drivel I realize that perhaps it is difficult or impossible to fully let go of someone that you love. What is in your heart tends to stay in your heart. What happened is I experienced love at first sight 39,000 feet above the Pacific Ocean with a female Malaysian Flight attendant in a 747 crammed full of passengers.
I had an aisle seat on the plane and this female flight attendant walked by me and accidently bumped my elbow with her hip. I thought nothing of it and smiled as I thought it was a cute accident. I watched her cute booty as she walked to the front of the plane. She did it two more times. The third time I saw her swish her lovely hip and attacked my elbow with it. I watched in amusement and wonderment at her cute little booty disappearing as she walked to the front of the plane again.

Now I don't claim to have lots of brain power, but I did realize perhaps she was trying to communicate with me with her lovely hips. I finally garnered the courage to walk to the front of the plane to talk with her. Oh man she was just cute as a button; she was so nice and gave me huge smiles as we talked. She was piece of perfection in an imperfect universe. She was more than pretty, she was perfect. I had the acute revelation that we were experiencing love at first sight. To me love at first sight is characterized by deep instantaneous smiles, butterflies in the tummy, magnetism, trust, the feeling we have known each other forever, and the desire to know each other forever.

It killed me that we fell in love at the wrong place and wrong time. I was in college and she was a working girl from another country. Well guess what? I had to find room in my erratic and sometimes capricious heart to store her for safe keeping. Good shit happens sometimes! I wonder does she ever think of me? So now I am an old dude on a laptop pouring my heart out over a chick that was way too hot and good for me. I know I am old now because some grandmas are becoming really hot! That is my old fucker litmus test.
