I suck

So here I am, blogging on a plane. ::Standard::

I am reading Mark my cho cha rant. (yes, aloud).

I get random blog ideas from real life events, people! And here is a PRIME EXAMPLE of it:

You know how seats in Coach are big enough to make a moderately obese (aka normal) American to feel like a Fatty Boom Batty. The seats are tiny. And awkward to sit in…

Let me start off by saying something: Mark and I booked our AirTran tickets together for our random Florida vaca. How, oh how, did Mark end up in seat 14E and I sit in 15B? That’s right, AirTran, we booked our flight together, but please don’t sit us next to each other! We got that ‘situation’ quickly corrected.

I’m totally annoyed with the person who invented the reclining airplane coach chair. As if I’m not uncomfortable enough, the a-hole in front of me thinks she is ENTITLED to her reclining seat.

Here is where it gets awkward: [This literally just occurred.]

As soon as the chick in front of me reclined her seat, I looked at Mark (who was now next to me) and let out an excited “YESSSSS!” while I pointed to the seat that was now nearly touching my forehead. Mark let out a nervous giggle. Apparently the lady heard. …and Mark knew I didn’t care… I knew I had the green light for humor when Mark laughed. I told him I was going to blog about this incident. I was going to title the post, “You suck, lady in front of me!” I thought it was hilarious! Mark didn’t give the reaction I was looking for. I didn’t care. I was already imagining all the amazing things I could say about her.

As I started frantically writing, my husband leaned over… “Yeah… She heard everything you said. And now she is giving me the stink eye.

…Opps… Nice…. What an interesting turn of events…

Alice A-Hole in front of me lowers her seat to my chest. I make a comment. Alice hears. And now SHE’S offended. Typical.

I don’t care. Now I keep coughing in her hair and expressing my opinion on how, “I don’t care what the doctor says, this H1N1 isn’t going to stop me from having fun this weekend.” I hope Alice is excited about her ‘extra’ souvenir.

…by the way… I appropriately changed the title from “You suck, lady in front of me!” to “I suck.” Yep. Chalk up a loss to Tiff.
