I'm sitting in Kansas City International airport. One hour and ten minutes to my flight and I need something to drink. Anything. Please.

Here's my main beef with the Kansas Airport. The terminal is set up so that there is a security checkpoint for each two or three gates. Each of these areas of two to three gates is self contained. All of the food shops are outside of these areas. Thus the question becomes which need is stronger?:

A) The Liquid Factor: the need for liquid/hydrating sustenance

B) The Lazy Factor: the lack of appeal in going through the damned security line again with all of my gear (interesting sidenote: when I showed the security guard my itinerary, to get through the checkpoint, he couldn't figure it out. He asked me if I was going to Dallas. I replied in the negative, stating instead that I was going to Atlanta. He then said, "okay, I trust you", handed me my itinerary, and sent me through the checkpoint. I think he was thirteen.)

I haven't yet decided which factor will win in the end, but right now I'm definitely being lazy.
