Story 71: "Waiting for Agent Right" by Kel

[wendelah1]

We have reached the last of the travel theme stories. Travel theme, you are thinking? Never mind.

We are just doing humor this week, as a change up from last week's very plotty, angst-laden offerings. This week's story was nominated by hlbr. As I recall, in "Waiting for Agent Right," it is first season, Mulder and Scully are in the first class lounge of the "world's ugliest airport," waiting for a weather-delayed flight. Agent Mulder is getting high on free champagne; Agent Scully is not. Hi jinks ensue.

Waiting for Agent Right

For those of us with way too much time on our hands, I am arbitrarily introducing a new feature, to appear maybe every week, maybe not. I like to keep you guessing.

It's a Book Club Rerun: go check out our discussion on The Airport by the great Jess M. Have fun!

As always, go read, come back, we'll talk. If you have a suggestion for reading, you can let us know here. And remember, as dashakay is always telling us, feedback matters.

I am going to time my breakfast to coincide with the speech, I hope. I am so excited.

Awesome! It's getting close. I cannot believe how many people are out there on the Mall (and beyond). They're saying at least 2 million.

You know we already read Livia Balaban's story here. Maybe you missed it?

It was a very moving speech. I am a happy Wendy today.

My dad and I cried through it. I'm a sarcastic non-weeper, and he's 91 and has seen some appallingly disappointing politicians. But, y'know, there's this little glimpse of sunlight at the edge of that dark cloud.

My husband admires the man's diction.
