Flying purrs, please?
I have to fly to Baltimore for a wedding that was supposed to have been this
fall, until an inlaw came around with a shotgun...you know the old story. We had less than 3 weeks notice. I'm standing up for her, the only one of her Buffalo friends who didn't bail on her. And I'm scared of flying. I think i was Amish in my past life or something, don't want to mess with one of them contraptions and if the good Lord meant me to fly he'd have given me wings instead of this oversized tuchas to shlep around. I want to come home to my husband and my babies (not turn into Lizburgers somewhere over the Appalacians or Adir5ondacks or whatever those hills are) and will have a hard time falling asleep without my nightly massage and my morning Brandy Candy Kisses. Are you all SURE flying is safe? Help! Purr...please? Blessed be, Baha -- Message posted via CatKB.com http://www.catkb.com/Uwe/Forums.aspx...dotes/200704/1 |

Maybe you could get a tranquilizer from your doctor? Purrs for a smooth flight with no worries. It's good of you to stand up for your friend, and you deserve lots of good things as a result. Joy |

Flying purrs, please?
My doctor has in effect given me carte blanche where my Valium is concerned
this weekend. I'm facing up to plane-phobia and agoraphobia, for what is more open a space than the sky? Even at work I essentially demanded a small room and insist on corner tables and small spaces when I work on my writing. My biggest worry is for my friend though and that's why I'll be white- knuckling it; I'm worried she's gotten herself hooked up with a lazy schmuck who won't get regular work because it'll interfere with his Dungeons & Dragons games. She's working her own tuchas off and won't take time off for a honeymoon because right now she's the major supporter of this family-in-the- making. I don't know which of them to club first once I land (planesaresafeplanesaresafeplanesaresafeplanesares afe...)

Are you all SURE flying is safe? Help! Purr...please? Blessed be, Baha Of course flying's safe....not that telling you that will make a whole lot of difference. Valium sounds good and be sure to drink a lot of water, preferably bottled to avoid any digestive issues. Kudo's to you for going, BTW. Sounds like your friend may need you in the near future...Hopefully you won't have to be gone for too long... -- Eric, Kim and the Chigger Ranch Crew |

Are you all SURE flying is safe? Help! Purr...please? Blessed be, Baha Hon, far safer in the sir than on the ground in a car. My tuchus has been schlepped in a plane a lot in the last 22 years. My mom and oldest daughter live in the Louisville KY metro area and I live in NJ, just outside Newark. Believe me, it's a lot safer in the air than on the Jersey streets.... Lots of purrs and prayers for you though. Kathy |

Blessed be, Baha Hey, aforementioned daughter is living with a schmuck like that - and her 9 yr. old daughter. He wants to get married, but can't afford medical insurance for her until the other daughter he's paying child support on is "grown up". My daughter is on Medicaid, praise god/desses... She and the schmuck met playing d&d... Sigh. I'm glad I'm not the only one. At least her schmuck works - she doesn't, so far... Purrs for you and your friend.... Kathy |

Are you all SURE flying is safe? Help! Purr...please? Purrs on the way! When you're on the plane, close your eyes and think of all the kitties around the world who are purring just for you at that moment. It helped me with my fear of dentists! The thought of all those purring kitties just made me want to laugh, and I haven't been afraid of the dentist since (finding a good dentist was also nice). -- Marina, Miranda and Caliban |

Flying is much safer than driving... but you know that. Think about all the planes that take off and land every day... hundreds and hundreds of them, all safely coming and going without incident. The odds are overwhelmingly in your favor! Hope this trip is not too trying. You're a real mensch! Joyce |

Are you all SURE flying is safe? Help! Purr...please? Blessed be, Baha You could take the train? Well, I've made it out over several continents and oceans and back in one piece, but thinking too much about it tends to make me a bit nervous. It's not a terribly long flight, is it? Take plenty of music/reading material. We're sending you soothing nerve-purrs. Theresa Stinky Pictures: http://community.webshots.com/album/125591586JWEFwh Make Levees, Not War |
