I remember once when I flew, I was stuck in the seat RIGHT by the bathroom. And what made it just awful was that someone who used the bathroom had some seeeeeeerious bowel issues. People with bowel issues = Jen's gag reflex. I couldn't stop gagging. Ugh!! I don't like flying. Well, the flying part is cool... the people, generally, are not. The person behind me had this strange gutteral-sounding cough and me with my OCD, I could just see all the germs wafting around in the air, being recirculated throughout the cabin and landing in my unprotected nose. *shudders.* I won't be flying agian for a while. -Jen .-= Jen @ NathanRising´s last blog...<a href="http://nathanrising.com/2009/12/time-keeps-on-slipping/" rel="nofollow">Time Keeps on Slipping</a> =-.

So, did you never vacate her adjacent and once vacant seat? Or did you trek back to her to offer up the book. I do hope you will post your synopsis and evaluation of personality improvement tips. What a funny newsletter for your mother to have and to recommend. Interesting. Very Interesting. .-= magda´s last blog...<a href="http://somanysisters.blogspot.com/2009/12/uni-tasking.html" rel="nofollow">Uni-tasking</a> =-. Oh, That is on my reading list.

LOL. It was The Help. I was so bored I actually wrote a "review" of that book on the plane. That's how tedious the flight was... I did end up giving her the book. I didn't want to lug it around. Now I am in need of reading material for my trip back. Imagine my mom trying to give me the newsletter from her lady's society of some sort for improving your personality... "You really should read it. On the plane." Maybe I should. For sure that will put me into a coma. Scratch and sniff. LOL. It was The Help.
