FOR THE LOVE OF GOD...

ok, i have a story to share...

so many of you who know me, know that i am terrified of flying...i just dont do well with it anymore...and i know its something that i have to deal with, cuz i travel a lot, so i just work through it...um, usually with half a xanax...

well, last night, i was taking the red eye from lax and flying to the east coast...where there happened to be a HUGE snow storm going on...

well, right before boarding, i gave myself a little pep talk, popped my little pill, and got in line...now tell me...why come i had to get right behind this girl who was BAWLING and WAILING that she didnt want to fly...please dont make her...and the weather was so bad we were definitely gonna crash...blah blah...?

i'd say she was in her late twenties...clutching a pillow...that i really wanted to smother her with...and she was with some older guy, who was completely ignoring her...so glad he could...

anyway...we go to get on the plane...and this girl stops at the plane door and starts crying and screaming hysterically...she touches the top of the door frame and each side of it...and shes yelling "we're all gonna die!"...um, yeah...and the flight attendants...are like "no we wont...if we cant land, we'll be diverted...blah blah"...none of which this damn tool is listening to...

so by the time i get to my seat...this bitch has me TOTALLY freaked out...and im thinking...oh my God...i think we might all really die like she says...the whole law of attraction thing (which ive been practicing since reading 'the secret') is now
TOTALLY working against me...and im thinking this stupid girls horrible energy is gonna crash this damn plane!...i know, it sounds ridiculous...but these are the thoughts that are going through my head...

anyway...why come she had to sit right behind me?!...and shes just saying all this stuff out loud over and over...and the old guy shes with just keeps ignoring her...meanwhile...my little "make me feel better" pill doesnt work at all!...prolly cuz shes freaked me out so much by this point...

well, we are about half way there...mind u, ive been up for the entire flight so far...scared to death...the pilot makes an announcement for all flight attendants to remain in their seats...this is never a good thing...its now 2 am pst...ive tried to distract myself by catching up on top model episodes on my ipod...to no avail...i look out the window, and i can see a crazy ass storm right below me...and now it starts to get ridiculously bumpy...ok, maybe bumpy is not the word...you know when you make a crazy move when you nod off cuz you dreamt you fell off a cliff or something...and you jar yourself awake...usually embarrassing yourself?...well thats what it was like...sharp scary drops and shakes and bumps and terrifying crap...this goes on forever...and it looks like armageddon out my window...um, and why am i looking out the damn window? yeah, cuz im an idiot...and nosey...lol i am praying at this point...and YOU KNOW the bitch behind me is losing her mind...

then out of nowhere it felt like we dropped from the sky...just dropped...and landed on the runway...apparently they try to land the planes like helicopters during these storms so the wings dont freeze up...nice...scared the shit out of me...well then the runway was covered with about a foot of snow at least...and we skidded like crazy...aughghh...the girl behind me screaming...im doing my "im so grateful for the safety of this flight" 'secret' affirmation work...lol...and we skidded....and we skidded...but we made it to the gate...THANK YOU UNIVERSE...and thank you brilliant pilots...and here i am writing all of this...

i didnt see that stupid girl at baggage claim...and its a good thing...i think i would have smacked her with my overpacked suitcase...and in the ooooh so random chance that she would ever read this...
i think i hate you.


ciao ciao
