Oh, believe me, I admire everyone that could laugh under those circumstances! I don't particularly like that I'm a big fraidy cat coward about bumpy plane rides or planes making dodgy noises.
United, eh? I would've guessed Alaska Air, but they're, perhaps unjustly, the airline that scares me the most because of that crash in 2000--something about the fact that it was caused by poor maintenance AND that the people on the plane had 10-15 minutes to know they were probably going to die before it actually happened. If I'm destined to go out in a fiery crash, I'd rather not know what hit me!
Susan, I might be the opposite of you in terms of flying fear. I do ok as long as I simply do not think about the mechanics of what the plane is doing. But for that brief moment when I'm stepping from the accordian-tunnel-gate thingy into the plane, and I can see the metal shell of the machine that will be keeping me from falling out of the sky - the sight of that just freaks me right the f*** out. And then I'm inside the giant magic bus, and I'm fine. Until I have to step through and look at the skin of the beast again.
Telnet.

Someone is sneaking extra days into the week, and I don't like it.
completely true. and yet - still not enough time to finish Christmas shopping or get the rest of the trimmings up. way to purchase, then not use, things that are going to go in the trash in 2 weeks!
I woke up this morning convinced it was Friday. I still have to keep reminding my self that no, it is Thursday.
Strangely enough, the fact that it is Thursday is a relief, given the amount of work I have this week.
It's Friday for me. I'm burning off PTO before I lose it at the end of the year, so I'm off tomorrow and Monday. The sad part is, I have so many things I have to get done, I'll be busier than if I were at work.
why oh why isn't it the weekend? head hurts and do not want to go to work, but i have to. at least i have a hair appointment to look forward to tonight.
Has anyone bought one of those lapdesks that are a beanbag with a white board on one side, and if so, where?
i've also seen these at Staples, Lee.
I took the night off from school because of headache. I've got one this morning, so I'm all in a Life Sucks sort of mood right now.
I am incredibly tired and have neither milk nor anything to eat for breakfast in the house. I guess I'd better get going to somewhere which will sell me breakfast and then to work. Meh.
I am the opposite of Jesse this morning. Not only am I doing my laundry before I go to work, when I discovered I was out of detergent, I went out and bought some!
Tom, that involves a level of awakedness in the morning that I find terrifying.
