HOping we don't crash...

Do you ever leave your house and think this could be on the lifetime movie special about how my day began so normal and then went horribly wrong? Yeah, no, okay- well I do, all the time. Because I am PSYCHO!! We are flying on a plane tomorrow to Utah. I hate flying. The first time I flew it was...to Utah with my older and much more experienced with flying sister (she flew to Texas from Utah to come get me so I could fly back with her). I remember it ALL! I was terrified...any noise the plane made I would immediately snap back "what was THAT?" Yang would calmly reassure me that it was this or that or the wheel fell off or whatever. Then SHE had the audacity to blurt out "What was that?" and my heart nearly jumped out of my chest. I immediately let her know that it was NOT okay for her to ask that- if something was going on she needed to calmly say "Something out of the ordinary is happening." We laughed and laughed the whole way- she was probably as nervous as I was. I love my sister- I can't wait to be with her in the temple.

Anyway, back to flying. Hate it! Hate it! and as we pull out of the driveway at 4:45 in the morning you can bet your sweet bippy that I will be thinking about the lifetime movie that starts out with the sweet young family of 5 packing up in the wee hours of the morning preparing to leave for the trip that will change their lives forever...

Wasn't that the trip where you and Yang started that business of pretending the plane was going down? Man, Yang really had to do some fast thinking to keep you from totally losing it!! I have been praying that I will be able to be aware of her in the Temple. I guess I muffed that today. Serves me right.

Get some B-Complex, GEE!!!
