Will I 'See' You All Again?

Inky · Aug 5, 2007

How many times do we board a plane assuming all will go as planned?

Uh huh. Not I.
I have issues being stuck in purgatory with unfinished business.
Oh....you thought I was under the assumption I would be whisked away to Heaven? Um. No.

Anyhoo. I'm one of those that the other shoe doesn't just drop, its partner in crime kicks me in the arse as well. The experience leaves me gasping. Such profound joy.

Tomorrow morning, I fly from Germany to Turkey.

So, regarding that unfinished business....should the wings fall off the plane and the baffoons flying with me can't flap their arms fast enough, allow me to take a moment to tell you all how much you've made me laugh; how much you've become a part of my daily 'fix'....
You've made me aspire to be a better writer, tighten prose, and let's not even start on how you've taught me to be a total perv-meister.
It was TOO all your fault.
I arrived a Girl Scout.
I'm now reduced to a Girl Scout cookie....sweet, gooey, not quite good for you. :e2brows:

I heard you got laid last night. So what's the problem? Good luck flying Turkish Air. Best wishes if I never see or hear from you again.

DeborahM · Aug 5, 2007

Isn't Turkish Air the one that is like a cargo plane and you sit with chickens, goats and geese?

Don't forget the monitor and keyboard regular cleaning we kept you current on with your spewing tea! Take care and let us hear from you!

Miss ya! :Hug2:

I know Air Micronesia used to be that way. My wife and I did a circle Pacific with them for a month on our honeymoon.

It's really bizarre flying with chickens. I have so many odd tales from that trip.

But we made it back safely. I don't know what to say to Inked, though. Good luck? Break a leg?

What was that movie where they changed all the smiling faces on the emergency procedures card to screaming, terror-stricken faces?

I have no issues with airplanes. My problem is airports. Airports ARE LIMBO. It's like being dead and not knowing it. Time crawls into eternity. Usually you're so sleep deprived you can't read, can't write... just have to sit there staring at all of the other zombies...

Cassiopeia · Aug 6, 2007

You take care sweetie. I know we will be seeing you soon, don't worry.

aadams73 · Aug 6, 2007

Fly safe and travel well!

Just don't Spew Tea on the pilots and you should do fine.

If the wings do fall off and you have to fall the 35000 feet to the ground: Remember, Bend your knees when you land.

If, by some miracle, you survive the crash and the riots and find yourself stranded on an island or in the sea. Remember this.

What to do if you find yourself stuck with no hope of rescue: Consider yourself lucky that life has been good to you so far. Alternatively, if life hasn't been good to you so far, which given your present circumstances seems more likely, consider yourself lucky that it won't be troubling you much longer

If the worst, you know just say... damn girl, can I have your tea collection? I want to ummm... investigate its properties so to say.

cray · Aug 6, 2007

peace.

Fifteen minutes into the flight to Ankara, the captain announced, "Ladies and gentlemen, one of our engines has failed. There is nothing to worry about. Our flight will take an hour longer than scheduled, but we still have three engines left."

Thirty minutes later the captain announced, "One more engine has failed and the flight will take an additional two hours. But don't worry ... we can fly just fine on two engines."

An hour later the captain announced, "One more engine has failed and our arrival will be delayed another three hours. But don't worry ... we still have one engine left."

Inked turned to her husband in the next seat and remarked, "If we lose one more engine, we'll be up here all day!"

Happy landings.

If you can hold your breath for the entire flight, you'll be just fine.

Remember not to breathe at all, or you're doomed. Good luck.

(Seriously... have a good, safe flight, and best of luck to you settling into your new place!)

Morbid Inky....

Be sure to post when you get settled :Hug2:

When will I see you again
When will we share precious moments
Will I have to wait forever
Will I have to suffer and cry the whole night through

When will I see you again
When will our hearts beat together
Are we in love or just friends
Is this my beginning or is this the end
When will I see you again
(When will I see you again)
When will I see you again

Haaaa, Hoowoo
Precious moments

Are we in love or just friends
Is this my beginning or is this the end
When will I see you again
(When will I see you again)
Sweet sweet love of mine
(When will I see you again)
When will I see you again
(When will I see you again)
When will I see you again

what would we do with out you?

Inky · Aug 6, 2007

Okay, too hot here in Germany to enjoy tea, but I HAVE spewed my RC...hey..me and my RC. Okay. Aged myself there.

Good Lord, you people are wicked funny and just plain wrong!

Um. No chickens. It's an Air Force plane, flown by Air Force pilots.

Was that a collective groan?
Yeah...see? Told you. Doomed.
Because we ALLL know...The fruckin' military goes for the lowest bidder....now...how much you think they bid on this old commercial plane?

You know it's bad when you ocassionally see the plane take off, and the wings wobble. It's like watching a bloody albatros (sp?) take off....

Williebee · Aug 6, 2007

Hey, I've flown a lot of military air. Never a problem in the air. Not usually the most comfortable flights, but they always got me there.

Fly safe. Think happy thoughts.

Get back to us when you're settled in. We'll miss you.

You want them to flex...if they didn't they would break.

Soccer Mom · Aug 6, 2007

No, young lady. You may not join any sort of "club" while up in the air. I don't care what the pilots say! Stay out of the cabin, Missy!

Joe270 · Aug 6, 2007

Um. No chickens. It's an Air Force plane, flown by Air Force pilots.

Inked, you have absolutely no worries, then. You have the best in the business taking care of you. Good enough for the president of the US, etc. Sheesh. I thought you were flying Turkish Air.

I used to fly around to various countries to SCUBA dive, one airline was famous for its problems, TACA. It became known as Take A Chance Airline.

See ya upon your return. You'll be fine. Take a Xanex before the flight, though.

Ol' Fashioned Girl · Aug 6, 2007

Hurry back to us! We miss you already.
