8hrs later and I'm Happyyyyyy! Agreed, the only discomfort is the gas.

OMG! OMG! OMG! REWIND: The day has arrived! Today i say goodbye to 80% of my stomach and hello to my new life! I've been up for over 24 hrs In anticipation. Yesterday I worked from 9:00 am until 11:00 pm, then went home to complete my packing. I took a 15 minute nap, showered at 4:30 am, helped mom with her packing, placed everything in the car, drove to the airport, parked, checked in and boarded the plane . . . . The whole time I was FINE. PLAY: I get up to use the bathroom on the plane and that's when IT started . . . . PANIC!!! Walking down the aisle was a feat in itself. Then I step into the afterthought they call a bathroom. It was so small that my butt cheek touched the wall. Anyway, when I turned around and looked at myself in the mirror that's when I started mentally freaking out, asking myself . . . . . What are you doing? . . . Are you sure you want to do this? . . . It's not too late to cancel . . . . Think of all of the holes they are going to make in your belly . . . . The pain. I do believe the "super close quarters" caused me to have a panic attack. Once back at my seat I am fine. I won't lie, with us arriving in San Diego in a little over an hour I know that I will be getting nervous again.
