Planes, Trains and Automobiles

Ok, mostly just planes and automobiles.

Planes:

Airports are weird places. If you ever need to feel better about yourself, just go to the airport for a few hours and people watch. Good Lord people are fricken strange. As a frequent traveler, I've come to notice things more than others. Here are my stories and this is just from the last trip...


1. Arrive early. If you don't, it's your own f-ing fault that the lines are long and you may miss your flight. Trust me, the person in front of you isn't going to feel bad about your poor judgement or the fact that you think TSA takes too long with security. Also, if you huff and puff in my ear, I may kick you. Consider this a warning.


2. Teenagers. They drive me nuts. I counted a girl saying the word 'like' 37 times in under 5 minutes. Parents of teenages, teach you child proper English. Ok, I will probably be kicking myself in 13 years for saying that, but really, it is annoying.


3. Keep you damn hands to yourself. Even if you think my ring is pretty, that does not give you permission to touch me or it. Or swirl it around my finger as if you were trying to remove it.


4. Take a shower. Gross. Showing up in sweats with holes in them and a tattered shirt that is stained is nasty. And if you can afford that North Face jacket you are carrying around, you sure as shit can afford some nicer clothes.


5. Eat like a normal person. Why on earth do you need to blow on your ice cream like it is hot soup? So weird. It's not going to get any colder. And to the airport sushi eaters... clearly you do not know good sushi. Airports are scary places, therefore the food in them should be treated as such.

Automobiles:

To the rental car guy... Just because I am a female and pregnant does not mean that I am an idiot. Please do not treat me as such. I've done this a time or two. If you'd looked at my "frequent renter" card you would realize this. Also, I have preferences put in place for a reason. No I don't want a fricken BMW or a Mustang. And next time, when you ask if I travel here often, listen to my response. Asking 3 times is going to get you the same result everytime... me telling you that you should have paid attention the first two times you ask me :)

And off I go to California for more adventures. Home on Wednesday (if the snow lets me get home). Here's to happy travels!
