Planes and Stuff
So, today, I bought a plane ticket and am prepared to fly for the first time since 9/11. I wasn't much of a flyer before 9/11, but after that, I was dead-set against it. But today, I bought a ticket to fly to North Carolina. It's going to be good. It's going to be fine, and I have seven weeks to convince myself of that. I'm sure it will be fine. It will be worth the trip, so that's all that matters.
I have a few other phobias. Just a few. Spiders and small closed in spaces. Typical things. So, I can get over the flying thing. Sure. I've got seven weeks.
Today, I was surfing around on-line and found a "Pirate Name Generator." After a series of questions, they assign you a Pirate name based on your personality. Here's mine: "Mad Mary Flint" And here's the commentary on it: "Every Pirate is a little bit crazy. You, though, are more than just a little bit. Like the rock flint, you're hard and sharp. But, also like flint, you're easily chipped, and sparky. Arr!" Fun stuff. It's so Friday.
Stacey and I are going over to our friend Mindy's tonight for a little girl time. It's going to be fun! Can't wait!

Flying can be fun. Enjoyable. I like it. Especially if its a clear day and you are just above the clouds and they are puffy. Puffy Simpson's clouds are nice. But, especially when you are flying for a good reason. You can focus on that. Plus, think of all the reading you can do...or sleeping for that matter.

Your pirate name ROCKS!!
Every plane trip is an adventure!
I enjoy the time navigating in the airports, finding the gate, having a snack, etc.
You're going to have a BLAST!
