Well, our flight to SFO takes off in the morning. I'm in the midst of a packing flurry with alot of confusion. I've been watching the SFO weather and it's low 60's with lots of sun. I'm stuck in hot summer mode and keep packing too many tank tops. Kitty is getting nervous now that the suitcases are out. Packing looks a little skitzo. Summer clothes, warm clothes, and a cat. I will make sure the last one gets out before we leave. I promise. Really.
Traveling always causes me a ton of stress. Once that flight takes off, then I go in to excitement mode. Until then, I'm nervous, anxious, hurried, worried, frantic, out of it, can't make eye contact with my husband, don't want to be hugged, and there's a misplaced feeling of dread that fills me. Maybe I am actually afraid to fly? Or, maybe I'm bi-polar. I noticed yesterday that the flight itinerary has my old name on it. That was enough to send me into a rage. Apparently Mr. Right needed to update Travelocity. Or learn to proof read. Or both. The airline said to bring the marriage license, but what I heard is "be prepared to be strip searched".... and "we are taking your shampoo for that". I'm pretty good at reading between the lines :)
Is it normal to feel like you are going to the death chamber for your lethal injection when one is on the way to the airport? That is probably a no.
If I die on a Delta flight, please take care of my kitty.

LOL that is funny. You poor girl.
I am not usually that uptight when I fly. I guess I figure if I forget something I can buy it...
Hey, go to my blog and vote for your favorite photo and I tagged you too! ;)
I love to travel. I always pack too much, but never get nervous or anxious.
Have a drink....relax and enjoy!!!!
I used to be the same way but then I got me some "flying pills" aka ativan. I take one as I walk into the airport and another one about half an hour before departure. Really takes the edge off.
Ok, I'm just gonna say that I TOTALLY feel your pain. This is what I go through everytime I fly. But I am very afraid of flying and will admit it. I even get nervous on 2 hr flights to So Cal. I just came back from a trip to Chicago and that about killed me. A lot of Xanax and drinks in flight.
I even make calls to my loved ones the night before I fly. Cuz I need to keep it real and make sure they know I love them. You never know. I'm just sayin.
I'm sure you will be just fine. Enjoy your trip to our great state.!! :-)
