One idea is that spending the day getting from here to there* will offer plenty of time for reflection, and thus plenty of opportunity to write interesting things.
Another idea is that moving through unfamiliar spaces after sleeping inadequately on unfamiliar beds will steal most of the available cognitive energy. Not to mention waiting for a connecting flight in the midst of a delayed flight to Kingston and an evidently long-delayed flight to Santo Domingo. If the unhappy folk are neither Brit-descended nor of German heritage, things get quite noisy. (My A during a brief phone call: “Who’s the baby?” Said baby was two yards away, making a break from Abuela.)
I’ll be touching down at Austin-Bergstrom at 1:30am, they tell me. So naturally I’ll be taking a road trip to Fort Worth tomorrow-!
