the journey to hawaii

is long drawn out on miniscule airline seats with outrageously truncated leg room so that even my anorexic frame is contorted into unbelievably unnatural angles.

this is one journey that ends marvelously though, as we emerge from the bowels of the airplane and step into the balmy paradise that is hawai'i, and our aches are miraculously exchanged for something suspiciously like a great vacation.

the journey back, which we are facing now, is going to be a grim reminder of life's realities.
