NQ

Hesitate to post this information knowing it likely only provides further proof of my high nerd quotient. Not that anyone needs more evidence. Anyway.

It was late and I was tired while flying home last Thursday night. However, I couldn't seem to doze off for a quick nap. My mind kept wandering to a variety of matters and issues. In due time, the pilot announced we were about 100 miles out and should land in Kanas City in 30 minutes.

I wondered if it really would take 1,800 seconds until landing. My countdown began. I closed my eyes and started ... one ... two ... three ... four ... and so on. I didn't stop counting until we pulled to the gate. The final count -- 1,828.
