So, I am on a plane the other day for a pretty long flight. My morning had started quite early. It was one of those situations when I decided that I would just have to force myself to sleep on the plane. (In other words, I closed my eyes for approximately two-tenths of a second and I was out like a light.)

I awoke an hour later to hear arguing going on amongst the passengers not only behind me on the plane but also in front of me. Their arguments seemed to both have something to do with dissatisfaction in regards to where they were seated.

I never did figure out exactly what was going on in either case but as I sat there I developed this fear that perhaps both the person in front of me and the person in back of me were intent on getting away from the snoring bald guy in 29D. I stayed awake the rest of the flight.
