I'm writing this entry. There's something wrong with it. Can you guess?

a) I'm being cryptic
b) I shouldn't be writing it
c) It's covered in jam

If you guessed 'c', there's probably something wrong with you. If you guessed 'a' you get points, but you're wrong. The answer is 'b': I shouldn't be writing it. By all rights I should still be in the air on my way to Nagoya, Japan. I'm not. Instead I'm in Seattle, Washington, due to Broken Plane Syndrome. To say the least, it was a bit unnerving being two hours over the ocean and suddenly being turned around to make a 'cautious' landing. So despite being awake at 3:30 to get to the airport by 4:00 to make a 6:30 flight, I won't actually leave the country until 10:00 tomorrow morning. What a day.

[edit] 4 in a row, bitches! And Kay, get off Baby's back about that play. It was at least a 95mph knuckleball for fuck's sake. You try making that catch.

Jesus, for a second there I thought you crashed. And were posting from Purgatory. *hugs*

Wouldn't that just be poetic. I think we might have crashed, too, with the way the pilot was going on about it, if we hadn't turned back. *hugs* So much for safety in the air, huh? :D

So much for keeping the passengers from panicking, too. "Uhm... guys... so we might die. I'll try to land this thing, but like... I only got my license yesterday. Oh, and we're out of gas."

Well, that's a bit scary! And I'm flying in a week, too... D: I'm glad you're ok, and have fun in Japan!

I'm sure you'll be fine. It's the first this has ever happened to me. It was more an annoyance than anything else at the time - it's only just occurred to me to be worried. <3

Huh... that's a little discouraging. :x Hope they get you going!

Just a little. Hopefully we're back on track tomorrow. At least my homestay wasn't supposed to start until the 10th.

Oh I didn't know you were doing a homestay! For how long? You're gonna come back fluent. :D

Would this be strawberry jam? ^_^

Stressful and unnerving, I'm sure. Just glad you're doing all right! *snugs* Hope the new flight is a smooth one and you get there safely.

I was thinking more raspberry, but strawberry works, too :D

Stressful and annoying certainly. Unnverving happened in retrospect. Good to know I've got my priorities straight, yeah? *snugs back* I hope I get in on time for my homestay! :(

Heres to positive thinking? I am reminded of my trip to CA last year, where they left "parts" of the plane in Boston. Color me impressed. Way to go airlines!

Or homicide. Way to go airlines indeed. I'm not even sure what was wrong with the plane other than that it would have led to Firey Death.

I'm here now. I'm safely ensconced in my Iida homestay.
