I like to sit towards the front, since you don't get the claustro sardine-can effect when you're trying to get off the plane. Also, I like the window seat, since I can lean into the wall and get some space between me and the other passengers in my row.
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

As much as I worry about Owen's bumps and bruises, our ped reassured me that you can tell the difference. And he'd be worried about a toddler learning to walk that didn't have a few marks--it shows that he's getting out there and trying and I'm not too overprotective or afraid to let him fall.

I can't wait to see what the ground looks like as you get further away from it. (I know the novelty will probably wear off, but whateva.)
Also, I'm hoping I don't get sick. I haven't gotten motion sickness since I was a little kid, but my mom says that if I got carsick then, I will get airsick now. I don't want to!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

There's no direct link. My sister was terribly horribly carsick as a kid, and has never had a problem flying, even when she was wee.

Oh, good. I don't want to spend the time feeling like I'm going to yarf when I plan on having shiny new books to read. (Although sometimes I still have a hard time reading in the car. I'm fine on trains, though.)

Yup. I couldn't get in a car without booting as a kid. I've NEVER gotten airsick. Well, except for on my way to London once, but I'm blaming the salmon on the in-flight meal. Or the 5 Jack & cokes.

Yikes. I can see how that would hurt. Although I'm not against finding myself a drink before the flight. Just to calm the nerves. At noon, it'll probably be hard to come by, though.

Drinks were free on international flights, so I indulged a wee bit.

Airport bars are open then, for sure.

Hmmm. I wonder if Manchester has a bar.

I could be wrong, but from what I've heard, much of the problem of car- and sea-sickness has to do with the difference in motion between the immediate surroundings and the horizon, which would suggest that airsickness isn't going to be a direct connection.
I'm no good with the sentence making anymore.
