So this past Thursday was my birthday. I actually feel 24. I had to count the years, when someone asked me how old I would be. That made me feel old. Some of my family and close friends celebrated with me at Olive Garden. (My favorite place) I made up in my mind before I even got there, that since it was my birthday that I was going to try something new. Yes that's right people, for my 24th birthday I stepped out of my comfort zone. (I have been doing that a lot lately, come to think about it). So anyways I got the new Rotaline Chicken ( I think that is how you say it). I was so excited to get that when the waiter was calling it out, here goes me "Oh right here!!". Yep I can be a dork sometimes. But, it was so good. I loved it! We took a lot of pictures and told lots of funny stories. So much fun! My mom and future step dad gave me a $100. Money is always a plus. All my gifts were great. I was so excited and everything that I got was something that I needed!
Friday I flew out at Charlotte at 4pm into Nashville, TN to see Jason. I was so exhausted that I fell asleep on the plane, so I felt bad when we landed because I knew I looked rough. Hopefully he stills loves me, jk ;) We then drove to Johnston City, IL to see the family. We got in really late so we talked for a bit and then everyone just kinda drifted. The next morning we woke up early and went out to the lake to go fishin'. And guess what people! I caught my first bass, it was small but it was a bass. I was so excited! I made Jason stop what he was doing to take a picture of me! I was so happy and proud of my self. We then headed back. The family cooked an awesome dinner, it was so delicious....then came the best part, chocolate cake!! YES!!! I even got a few gifts. I didn't expect any of it. I was extremely grateful. They are such wonderful people.
Then as if my weekend wasn't already the best....I get on the plane to come back home to Charlotte. The plane is on the strip ready to take off. All of a sudden we are turning around. YES PEOPLE THE PLANE IS BEING TURNED AROUND!!!!! No one is telling us anything. We are all looking around trying to figure out what is going on. Then 2 officers get on the plane, stand up front for about 10 mins and then walk (all puffed up) to the back of the plane and escort a lady and her husband off.....As she is heading to the front she is saying "Its just disgusting, I will not put my bag on the floor! I have flown many times and have never been asked to put my bag on the floor. I will not do it! Nasty, nasty, nasty" Yes that is correct, she did not want to put her purse on the floor or in the overhead compartment. She risked being arrested just because she didn't want to put her bag on the floor. The whole plane (Even tho' we are mad) starts laughing, and saying how stupid the whole thing was. I just didn't understand why she just didn't put it overhead till we got in the air. Was it that serious? Needless to say, a lot of people were going to be late for there connecting flights.
So I chose to carry on this time. But since we were on a small plane I had to yellow tag it. So I get off the plane and waiting in the corridor for my bag. And since I am the smallest one there, everyone thinks they should just stand in front of me while waiting for the bags. I mean hello people, you are taller then me. Do the math, I am 4'11 and you are 5' or taller. You stand behind me and we both can see. You stand in front of me and only you can see, duh! lol....Small people have feelings too....lol
Anyways, above all and all I had an awesome birthday. It was everything more then I expected. Next year maybe we can skip the whole turning the plane around and the whole "I'm taller then you" approach.
