I take it you're like my friend: she's not a very good flier. She gets very nervous and always holds my hand when we're taking off or landing.

This flight was really annoying, cause there were about 50 13-15 year old girls, and somehow one of them discovered I was a soldier (still not quite sure how), and they asked me questions for the next four hours. Plus, the movies sucked.

Nervous....that would be putting it mildly. Not that I am afraid of the whole thing going down or anything, I just dont like the idea of being that high up in anything without feathers.

Oh, it's crossed my mind several times... perhaps someday. It's hard to go from best friend to boyfriend though. We'll see.
