Galley Gossip: The passenger seated in 11J {Gadling}

Apr 11th 2009 1:50PM Hey Heather!
Love this!
I was a Stewardess.-That's right-bring your girdle,false eyelashes and come to class!
I ended up my career in 1979 by marrying my Great Love {only "great" could have gotten me to quit}!
I traveled more after marrying him than I did while working.
I had a little Yorkie named Trooper {a customs agent named him} that traveled every flight with me. He had an early under seat carrier and only wanted one thing-a cube of ice.
I can't tell you how many times a flight attendant would see him and take him out of his carrier. He was passed around like a magazine. He loved it.
He carried a real passport {with his photo} from the Cayman Islands, saying "this animal is in Her Majesty's Service and may be drafted at any time." It was a hold over of being able to take your animal in time of war.
During The Fauklands Crisis my english friends loved to tease me that Troop would be shipping out any day!
Thanks for bringing up great memories-I appreciate it!

Notable/Quotable: Oprah Winfrey Weighing in on Chris Brown/Rihanna Drama {BV Newswire}

I was in a very violent relationship.
It does not get better.
He will not "wake up".
He will not "realize what he is risking".
The beatings and verbal abuse will continue until you die.
Healthy Human Beings are not meant to hurt their partners.
A partener is where you run to - not run from.
My husband died of panceatic cancer.
I was married 18 years. When he died, I thought I would die. Now I relize {after several years} how blessed my life is. I am ALIVE.
I have a lifelong friend that is not alive. Not a one of our mutual friends had any idea she was being hurt by her 30 year husband. He was as beloved a friend as she was.
We cherish her memory. We do not speak his name.
Please search for someone that will listen to you. You will survive only if you can completely give in to the realization that you can not "save" your partener. He will not change. You have great worth. {not monetary-but human worth}.
Good Luck and Bless all that are in pain.
