The safety pin saves the day

People ask me why there's a safety pin in my wallet? For just these sorts of "emergencies." In this case, my sleep mask broke as we were preparing to take off. I didn't have any duct tape around to fix the problem, but I had my trusty safety pin.

While no life was at stake, the ability to get as good sleep as possible on the flight was pretty key - especially considering we left for the airport at 3:45am.

With my sleep mask repaired, a recording of about an hour of Groove Salad and my noise canceling headphones , I did well. I was asleep before the safety briefing and woke up when the plane landed.
