Leaving on a jet plane...

Last weekend, I flew on a plane for the first time in my life. I was nervous and excited at the same time. I don't fear heights, but I do fear puking in front of tons of people. I went with my mom, brother, and sister to Alabama for my cousin's wedding. We left Friday from Columbus and flew to Cincinnati...it was about an hour flight. From there we went to Birmingham, Alabama, about another hour. Now, why do you ask, did we have to take 2 hour flights instead of it being easy and having one two hour flight? Who freaking knows. It was dumb, but there were no direct flights there or back. Well, since the flights were so short, we were on these little commuter jet things. I hated them. It was claustrophobia in the sky. On the way back, we flew Alabama to Atlanta-a HALF HOUR flight. now tell me, is that even logical? Then we went back to Columbus, which was a little over an hour. I slept on the last flight until the baby started crying....for the first time. Luckily, it wasn't too close or too loud and I ended up getting back to sleep. This plane was a little bigger, but not by much. When we landed in Columbus, there was ANOTHER baby that decided he wanted to scream at the top of his lungs. It was painful to the ears. And of course, his parents didn't even try to get him off the plane until after everyone else was off. Did they want everyone to know it was their kid who wouldn't shut up? They could have at least had the mother get him off the plane as quickly as possible so the rest of us who had to wait 20 minutes to get off didn't have to listen to him squeal like he was being beat. Well, him crying made the other baby cry. It's like dogs. One starts and they all decide to join in. Anyways....flying wasn't my favorite thing. I got use to it by the fourth flight, and it wasn't that bad.
The wedding itself was beautiful! The weather is great in Alabama this time (and I think all times) of year. The reception was at a yacht club. It was nice...the food was amazing. The cake was really good (that's the thing I always remember about weddings....how good the cake was!). Oh, and one good things....across from the banquet room that the reception was in; there was a little bar area that had a TV....so, we were able to keep up with the Indians game while there! It was a power struggle in that room between the Tribe and the Auburn football game (I guess Auburn is relatively close to where we were and the wait staff was watching it, but we kept turning it back to the Indians every chance we got....that's what happens when they keep the remote on the counter!). And thank you Hanz for keeping me updated when I couldn't be in there to watch!
Well, I'll be blogging again soon to update on other stuff. But for now....I really want to finish my book! I have like 40 pages left! I planned on finishing last night but got too into watching wedding shows on WE that it didn't get done.
Bye for now! :)

PS) I'm reading "The Screaming Room" by Thomas O'Callaghan. I love it. I have his first book; "Bone Thief" on reserve at the library and can't wait until his next one comes out next year! The third book has the same detective as the one I'm reading now. It's called "No One Will Hear You".
