Business trip makes me appreciate SS a little....
I used to hate business trips, even short ones as it would take me away from DW and family, leaving DW to shoulder most of the day-to-day burdens by herself. I would tell DW that on these days she should recruit SS to help her out, but SSis about as helpful as a milk bucket under a bull.
Except this time, according to DW, he actually was helpful. Apparently he watched and helped BS and BD take a bath and did some heavy lifting with the laundry. On top of this, when I arrived home, SS ran out of the door to help me with my bags. "I really need your help with my math homework!" He said....which may be his way of saying he missed me? I dunno, but I appreciated the extra hand in helping me with my bags.
But I think what really made me appreciate SS a little more is that on my trip, I had the (mis)fortune of sitting behind two teenage girls (at least I think they were teenagers, they could have been 18 or 19) who were totally not impressed with anything or anyone around them.
Imagine two "precious" princesses speaking to each other in a nasally voice...
"Oh my gawd! This plane is so small. How can it even fly?"
"Oh my gawd! The airline stewardess is a guy! What, he can't find a real job?"
"Oh my gawd! The airline captain can't speak English properly. I didn't understand a word he said."
"Oh my gawd! That passender is huge! I hope he doesn't sit next to us."
The WHOLE plane ride they were like this. Just two rude, obnoxious, spoiled little brats....
I did my best to ignore them.
When the plane landed, I thought the whining-torture session was over. Unfortunately, these two nasal-banshees followed me throughout the airport terminal droning on and on about how "stupid" this is and how "crazy" that was. No matter where I went, and where I stood, there they were, whining or giggling about their surroundings.
I just couldn't escape them...
But the worst part was not that these girls had the social graces of primordial ooze. The worst part occured when one of those airport traffic cops directing the taxis erroneously confused us as being a family.
"Are you three together?" He asked
"NO!" I exclaimed....and I admit I must have sounded like some poor sap being sucked into hell.
"Nooooooooooooooo........!"
That was probably the highlight of my trip. Made me count my blessings.

Some heavy-set passenger with a wide girth. He wasn't colossal "Huge" like the two nitwits were making him out to be though.
They weren't ugly, but they
They weren't ugly, but they weren't "all-that" either...I dunno. Just the mere thought that someone thought that I was actually "with" them made me want to take a shower.
Orlando huh? I'll have to
Orlando huh? I'll have to remember that. I don't care where I have to travel to for work. One thing I will not do however is travel and meet the client the same day. Never again.
"You can sleep on the plane" my boss said.
Yeah....Good luck sleeping when you have a Frat party heading to Vegas sitting next to you. At least, that is where I think they were headed. Gorramit! It is so early in the effing morning, shouldn't you guys be hung-over and passed out?
That happend to me once.
From then on, if I ever have to travel anywhere on business, the company must fly me out the evening before and put me up in a hotel. Travel there and meet the client same day? Nope. You'll have to fire me first. Nothing I do is so critical that needs me to be on site suffering from sleep deprivation.
You guys are going to have an
You guys are going to have an awesome time. I am sure of it.
Staterooms are small but you won't be spending all your time in there. And trust me, when the boat rocks, sleeping feels like being in a craddle. Best sleep I ever had was on a cruise ship!

Its not bad, if you have to change terminals, use the tram.
I would say you must have
I would say you must have been traveling with my stepdaughter. But she has no actual girlfriends. And surely you would have noticed one of them was in her 40s not 18 if BM had been with her.
Otherwise, easily could have been SD15. Everything is stupid. No one else has feelings to be respected. Only she does. And you better not get on the wrong side of those.
You should asked the two
You should asked the two babies what THEY did for work. How much did they save up for the plane tickets? Tell them even PT work counts, you know, since they are just starting out... }:)
It might have been my SD19 and one of her college-bought sorority sisters, since none of her friends from home want to hang with her anymore. Can't imagine WHY NOT..... Bwahahahahaha!
Sally, maybe Fungus and SD19 met on the plane?
