I realized that flying could be rather frightening now in these days of tight security. And no I don't mean that being on an airplane thousands of feet in the air at a very high rate of speed is scary.
The decisions one has to make in regard to what to take in carry on luggage. I am only going out of town for 2 days & 1 night, so I do not want to check my bags. So, I have to decide will I be ashy? Take my contact lenses yes, but I won't have fluid for them? Oh, maybe I can do without toothpaste. But I can take my corkscrew & cigar cutter, maybe I should start knitting, because I can take knitting needles. Who needs a corkscrew on a plane? Or shortly after landing? Smoking is not allowed, so cigar cutter? WTF?
What to wear? Cute boots boots with a zipper, or ugly shoes that are easy to slip out of, or better yet sandles. They go with socks, right?
And I am a black woman, lets not even go into the list of hair products that won't fit in a 1 quart sandwich bag. Decisions, decisions. But I can buy all of this once I have gone through security at the airport. Yeah right, I want a $20.00 bottle of lotion with that $5.00 pack of gum.
So if you are in the airport and see a woman with no makeup, ugly glasses, ashy skin, don't be scared, just ask me to open your bottle of wine with my corkscrew. ;-)

But will you be wearing the cute boots with the ugly glasses, ashy skin, and no makeup?
Wow, that's a lot of decisions to make and trouble to go through just to be gone for two days. Good luck with that.
I survived, and no, I packed the boots & wore loafers. Which are cute, because they are red ;-).
But it is interesting going through security.

Thanks for stopping by ROU! Great having you. Make sure you come back! And I'll be checking you out too.
Just another reason why I hate to fly!
@ CD Thank you too!
@ Chele as I get older, I realize that I hate long drives, so fly it is.
