I am not looking forward to flying to Albuquerque this afternoon. I haven't flown in several years, and don't like airports in general. This will be my first time to fly after getting a metal plate in my leg, (hope that doesn't cause any security snags), my first time to fly during the holidays, and my first time to fly after 9/11. I am not checking any luggage, as my suitcase went with my family in the van on Saturday. I have a small mesh backpack with my socks, underwear, and a clean change of clothes, deodorant, and my wallet and cell phone and a book or two to read on the plane. Yay for carryon luggage.
