Thanks, Red, but I think that's a bit of a reach

Not to worry, I can TEACH you how. Although, you might have to pitch some people and some things into the swamp to achieve it! lol.

we spoke earlier about cows and cats, how about a tiger too?

curveball

oh, all right, if you insist. Are the tigers imaginary like the bears were, or are they real?

at least you didn't say birds and bees.... Careful of the sting!

O, groan. Don't you recognize a valid Wizard of Oz reference? I must be a SAINT to not yell, scream and jump up and down. Lol. Just joking.

red, I did catch the reference, but didn't know how to work it towards the word (sting). I did not want to taint the thread with a bad reference

Oh dear my head is spinning, sounds like there's a TRAIN rushing by, dry mouth...I think I'm  going to FAINT. 

Teehee got half way through on my way to faint and realized I had two words in one sentence. Lol. You can steal one if you like or build off either.      :-)

Hang on Red, it's just a panic attack. All those symptoms are temporary, not final! They will go away as fast as they came on.

panic attack? I'm so scared I'm biting my nails

yes, it's plain to see you have some high anxiety going on there. Why do trains make you nervous?

it's silly, I know. When I was young (very young), Brownie troop going to Bronx Zoo by train. Next door neighbor had to get on the train to see her daughter off, when she was climbing down the steps to get off the train, her heel caught and she was dragged under the train. 

And DD was terrified the first time we took a plane, she still had memories of 9/11 causing her fear.

@2TA, how horrible! No wonder you are nervous about trains! I have some degree of travel anxiety too, but it's more of the "did I pack everything, will I make it to the airport on time, have I forgotten my ticket" variety. Still, it causes enough stress that I don't really find travel pleasurable. Some people really enjoy making plans for a trip, and all the preparations, as well as the travel itself, but I'm not one of them. 

Ugh, let's talk about something else! I didn't know you were from NYC. I was born there too, but have lived on the west coast since I was 6. I hardly remember it at all.

Really you were from New York too? We lived in the 'burbs, north of New Jersey, it pains me to think back to those years as it was a VERY long time ago!

RedReading

I am the world's laziest traveler. The night before we leave, I pick what I want to take with me, cram it in my suitcase, do up the zippers and SNAPS, throw tickets and passport in my purse and I'm done. Zero anxiety other than dealing with my DH, who was packed a week ago and keeps saying 'aren't you going to start packing'. No, I'm not.

@2TA, I was born in Queens. Both of my brothers went back to the NY area after growing up on the west coast. My younger brother lived in Highland Park and my older brother lives in White Plains.

@RedReading it must be nice to have zero anxiety, and not worry about what snags you may run into. Also a little ironic that your DH, who tries to do everything in advance, was the one who ended up with passport problems and missed half of the trip.

@Curve, I remember by cousins lived in Queens. That was a very long time ago

Can't think of a way to incorporate my word of gases into a sentence appropriately. 

Feeling lonely so I'm going to try to find something to do and someone to do it with. Enjoy the rest of your Sunday!    BBL!
