I’m getting on another airplane today. I’ve flown more in 2013 than I ever have — in fact, I think I’m going to be a GOLD member in 2014 because of it.
Some of you who know me well (or took my “Wretched Girl Journaling” class a few years ago), know that when I fly I am overcome with the urge to write cranky haiku. Here are a few from my last flight:
I cannot stand it
one minute longer. My legs
are falling off.
Window seats are great
when you can stretch your legs out.
But now, pure torture.
Those are the tame ones. I will spare you the really snarky one, where I attack the poor stewardess. (See? I’m TOTALLY not all smiles and sunshine over here.)
I’m off to visit my son and his college for Parent and Family Weekend. We have reading to do to prepare for it! http://www.stjohnscollege.edu/parents/AN/antigone.pdf
I’ll report back Monday with any new haiku.

Safe travel and have fun with your son!
Safe travels! And, enjoy your time in Annapolis with Wes.
Oh my goodness, oh my goodness, oh my goodness!! I just discovered your books on Amazon, while creating my Christmas wishlist! And you have a blog!! I’m so inspired and happy right now, browsing your posts! Oh, and safe and happy(er) travels! 🙂
oh, you are so sweet, Carla, i will try this haiku-wrinting on the daily riding my train to work when i can not relax and draw… have a good trip
I’m looking forward to your new haiku’s! 😀
Have fun with your son!! I have never flown in a Big commercial plane… lots of times in a small private one which do not offer much space at all.
At least, you don’t have to read Sophocle in Ancient Greek! May your journey be safe and may you have fun with your family!
safe travels have fun and looking forward to your new art 🙂
Happy Trails, my friend!!! miss you
I saw you were tall.
“Please return your seat back tray
to its upright spot.”
Carla,
I hope you arrived safely and will enjoy this special time with your son.
You are too funy!
That would be FUNNY!!!
What a provocative title: Wretched Girl Journaling. I don’t know what your original intention was, but I’d love to hear about it sometime.
