Oh, Heathrow

What seemed like a great idea at the time, has turned out to be a terrible idea: flying through Heathrow to get frequent flyer points on the airline of my preference.

No carry-on luggage, except for the bare minimum in a clear plastic bag. No computer, no phone, no ipod (gasp!), no drinks, and no contact lens solution (wtf). How am I supposed to travel for 14 hours with no ipod? I can barely go three hours without my music, and now they expect this of me? What do they think I am? Made of steel?

Oh well, if it means that I can travel without my plane falling from the sky, then I'm all for it.
