Drew and I leave bright and early tomorrow morning to head back to the midwest for a few days with my family. I figure between the bus ride to the airport, the wait to board the plane and the flight to St. Louis, we've got about a 6 hour commute or so — longer if there's a delay, which there often is. I know most people hate flying, and I'm certainly among them when it comes to any flight over an ocean, but short, continental flights? I kind of love them and there are three reasons why: USWeekly, In Touch, and Life&Style.
What can I say, flying brings out the worst in some of us.
All of the above, along with Cosmo and Glamour and my latest library finds, are reasons I love flying, too.
Not to mention putting my earbuds in and letting the iPod shut out (as best it can) the screaming children.
Happy travels :)

I travel quite a bit for work and my reward for dealing with TSA and delays is buying trash magazines....mm mm mmm....nothing better than a hit of Marie Claire, Men's Health and Cosmo

I love flying. Can't understand why anyone should be afraid of it. It's many times safer than car travel or going into hospital. Probably safer than walking down the average dimly-lit city back-alley for that matter.
