I'm on my way to Ottawa from Philly and Im right now starving in Cleveland. I hate airport food. Also be informed that the security alert has been raised to orange. I like orange and I hate the constant reminders about colors tha have no other purpose than mess with people's head. But that's not the point of this story. I've never been afraid of flying. I actually love it, but last night I had all these strange dreams about bad things happening to the plane and crashing. So I woke up kinda weirded out, on top of that I had a horoscope thing sent to my email saying I should avoid all travel and big plans, that now was not a good time. My flight from Philly to here was delayed about 2 hours and when we finally board the plane. There is a confused priest, looking for the none existing row 19 what lead to our very gay and charming flight attendant to tell everyone from row 12 and up to move one seat forward. It was ridiculous and chaotic. The older fashion saavy lady next to me offered me a Valium. The guy with the long hair and the sleeves kept telling the priest everytime there was the slightest turbulence "Father, I hope you're one of the good ones". It was so funny and weird. Now Im just hungry, but I have a Cinnamon Dolce Latte with me. I should lay off the caffeine. I've been a little too hyper. I think I walked up and down Gate D two times.
if you were 2 hours south I would come buy you some drinks or something I'm not a fan of flying really. loved it as a kid, get scared by it as an adult
I've never flown drunk. Hangover yes (not a very good idea). Maybe that's what I should do in the time I have here, though I dont like to drink when Im alone, but am I ever alone? :tongue:
cinnamon dolce latte....those are tasty, but i like them with soymilk and no whipped cream. any way is a good choice, though, but i generally just like straight espresso or tea. anyway, you should have had the valium, would have eased your nerves. i love flying personally, but i can understand being stressed if you have had some bad intuitions and dreams and things. i tend to get worked up about such things myself. if your still at the airport, theres surely a bar. a drink or two would calm your nerves as well as help to ease the hunger. but a better idea is actually eating! i know you dont feel like pizza, but SOMETHING in your stomach is better than nothing at all. i dont know what pizza place it is, but they may even just have somethng like salad and breadsticks if you just dont want a greasy slice of cheesy pizza....
heh. While i was in the airport waiting for the plane this old lady offered me and my mom a bottle of coke and whisky... my mom didnt let me have it though Beethovens 5th while looking out the window soothed me fine though. Dont ever be affraid of flying on accounts of terrorism. Other then 9/11 how many planes have been highjacked, like maybe 10 out of trillion. its a very irrational thing to even think about.
i've never flown while actually drunk, but i love flying and love drinking and it sounds like a good time. i've had drinks on a plane or right before boarding but never got drunk. i HAVE eaten a ton of weed right before leaving for the airport once, and that was AWESOME! i got to see the sun set while flying over a huge thunderstorm! it was crazy as hell, i loved it! so beautiful, plus i was high as fuck sipping some gin
Dude, did you take the valium? Could have really made the experience better. And I get you. I spent 6 hours at JFK airport once when my flights were delayed and then canceled.
Oh yeah, and I tried to order a small coffee from Dunkin' Donuts at JFK, and they gave me a (Tim Horton's size) large. The thing was 414mL, and they don't have anything smaller than that! Try and get some rest.
You meet some strange people on airplanes. I'm not to fund of flying. Every airport has the same shitty hurrying feeling to it. Security sucks balls. Customs sucks balls. Lines suck balls. Cramped airplanes with fat people sitting next to you sucks balls. Paying 5$ for an alcoholic beverage sucks balls. Airplane peanuts suck balls. The movies they play always suck balls. 12 hour flights suck balls. Not being able to smoke in the bathrooms sucks balls. Flying sucks balls.
I've never flown before, but it sounds as if flying sucks more balls than just getting down on your knees and sucking some balls.
I always have mine without the whipped cream and I havent thought of ordering it with soymilk, next time I sure will I wasnt really nervous, in the morning when I woke up I was and I talked to John and kinda wasnt nervous anymore and I said to him, well if anything bad happens, you know I love you and so does everybody I love, so it's all good, but yeah Im alive and well, here in Ottawa. Just discovered that MY room, that I still was payed this month's rent for, is ENTIRELY different. MY bed has been changed, my things are all in different places, but Im too tired to be getting angry and anyways was the point of that. Just very uncool of the roommate. Who knows what kind of things have been going on in here and I dont even want to think of that. I could have taken the Valium, but I was pretty chill, just cracking up on the crazy people and I've never taken Valium, didnt see the point. I didnt have any drinks either. I just sat in the window and stared at the clouds. When I got here to Canada they asked me a MILLION questions. I was all cool saying hey I have this student visa and Im not going to school here anymore so take it and they were like how long are you here for? what are you doing? what kind of activities do you have planned? I was like I have no plans... I just want to get my stuff and leave. I came with an empty suitcase and they were like how much of your stuff did you take with you when you left. I said, I dont know.. SOME stuff. Where are you living now? Are you employed? From where did you get the money to come here? What are you going to do here? and where do you live now? Do you have any drugs with you? what do you usually keep in this suitcase? I was mm normal stuff, clothes, shoes, underwear. The guy was driving me insane. Probably having an empty suitcase, no cash on me, a laptop and The QUr'an didnt give him a good impression. He actually spend like 15 minutes inspecting the empty suitcase and then was like "here's your empty suitcase". It's funny because I always end up telling them my life story and I think I just confuse them and make them more suspicious. I was like yeah, I was going to school here, but I got so depressed and stopped going so they kicked me out for a semester and I couldnt stay here without being in school so I went to my boyfriend's without knowing I was gonna stay there (the story continues) Mentioned Santo Domingo, PA and the guy was are you depressed now? I was like no, Im very happy. It was actually hilarious. I need to learn to give simple answers and not give a biography of myself everytime people ask something.
Mmm cinnamon dolce lattes are lush. Anyhow, I'm not that fond of flying either. It's just such a hassle, lots of queueing and waiting around at the airports, blahh. I'm flying back home later on today. The past few times I've flown the flights have been either ridicilously late or cancelled. Fun.
i don't mind flying, although the few times i've done it the flight was at 8 a.m. or earlier, and the airport is 1 1/2 hours away, so that means waking up about 4:30 which is just ridiculous... also, i've never been on a flight where they showed a movie, but i've always had a window seat which is better than a movie anyway. oh, and the "bistro breakfast" was hilarious... just call it a banana and a yogurt so people know what they are getting...
