Half way there: wash, rinse, repeat

Round 2:
Different day, same routine.
After a couple pleasant hours at the AC, I head out to Gate 58A to see if 1522 is another Dinner flight.

Refreshments

Hey they got it correct tonight.

Another crap sleep night, with maybe 45 minutes tops of real sleep. This is going to be a long day. The headwinds had died down from last night and we arrived exactly on time at 5:50a and pulled up to K10 about 3 minutes later. Ever notice that when you a tight connection, it is always in the next concourse or time zone. This morning with plenty of time, naturally the connecting gate is nearby K16.

Breakfast

Lots of unhappy PLTs and GLDs sitting in the back of the bus today.

No PDB but efficient service initially with Colleen taking orders back to front and then serving off the cart from the front. Although her "Good morning, my I have your name please?" seemed a little strange. Did we lose the manifest?

Same choice as yesterday, steel-cut oatmeal or cheese omelet. Maybe I was hungry this morning, but the velveeta omelet with hollandaise-like sauce was better than last time I had it. Yo, AA. How about some MEAT with the omelet like DL or UA?? Please.

Lack of sleep is starting to catch up with me, as I go from small bouts of work energy to leaning back and trying to nap.
I've never seen a movie in green and yellow, apparently a staple on this old 738.

By now, I'm starting to get bored.
Too tired to work and my book isn't doing anything for me.
No Wifi so I guess it's picture time...

And finally back at SFO for the fourth time in 36 hours.

And back "home"...
