I took an earlier flight because we finished training earlier than we thought we would. So, my supervisor dropped me off at the airport in Tampa and I found a flight that would leave Tampa earlier, go to Atlanta, and then get an earlier connecting flight to National. I took it.

Even though I loathe the Atlanta airport (I still say that train needs to be exorcised even if they have gotten rid of the demonic voice...), it turned out to be a really exciting and cool trip.

I got to Atlanta around 5:50 and wanted dinner. They had a Chick-Fil-A express and I happily went there, got my chicken nuggets, fries, and sweet tea, and then went to sit at the gate. I was up near the desk. Now, try hard to picture this: Me, with my hair braided back, a red and white 3/4 sleeve tee, a pair of brown work pants (I couldn't change out of the pants but I could change the freaking work shirt! I do not like work clothing) and my blue & pink tye-dyed bookbag.

I'm sitting there, happily eatting, when I hear a VERY familiar voice ask "Miss? Where did you get the Chick-Fil-A?" I look up and it's Ben Stein. :-) So, I can now say that I have given Ben Stein directions (even if it was just to go down the corridor at the Atlanta airport.)


...and no. I was so tempted but I didn't ask him to say "Bueller".

:-) It was just so weird to hear him speak to me. It's just not a voice you are expecting to hear anywhere other than on the TV...

It was even funnier when I got off the plane because he was right behind me. My Mom picked me up from the airport. I gave her a hug and quickly whispered "Look behind me!!!". It was fun to see her eyes get that big...

*lolz* Awesome. :) He seems like he'd be a genuinely nice guy. :)

I have always wanted to tell Ben Stein where to go and how exactly to get there.

He was actually really nice and very gracious to everyone that came up to him. He was talking to everyone at the airport, told me that it was the chick-fil-a hit the spot when he saw me again as I was entering the airplane; he was just nice.
