When you date a pilot.. You get motion sickness.

I loved that Sam was going to be a pilot on a big airplane one day. I've always loved to travel and it seemed awesome that I'd get amazing free flights if I married him! I kept bugging him about taking me flying, and reminding him that I hadn't gotten the chance to go flying with him yet, and how he had taken other girls.. And all that annoying stuff. :) Sam wanted to take me and so when we finally decided to go and I was sitting in the very small crowded plane and it didn't feel like there was enough air for me to breath- I got a little bit nervous. It sounds so fun until you realize that Sam is ACTUALLY flying the plane and you are ACTUALLY high up in the sky. Lucky for me Sam is a very good pilot, and takes flying seriously. So I felt like I could trust him. I remember feeling like the plane wasn't going fast enough.. 
it seemed like we were going to fall right out of the sky.
 It was super pretty and peaceful up there and I thought Sam looked so handsome. He flew over my parents house and grandparents house and told them to come outside and see, of course my mom thought Sam was making too sharp of turns ;) 
He later did some zero gravitys. And I was so embarassed cause I screamed. Sam wouldn't forget about that. It felt like we were going to die!!!!!! He kept laughing and laughing. He kept doing them cause he wanted me to open my eyes and watch. But I couldn't keep them open! Once I realized he wasn't going to stop doing them until I watched, I realized my eyelids and enjoyed the view. Until the third time when it hit me that I felt sick. I didn't want to throw up in the small plane and not have Sam be able to see and have him crash into the mountain. (That's how my dramatic brain works). So Sam landed the plane for me and I remember being so glad I was on solid ground. I was still super impressed with Sam and his flying abilities- but I didn't know if I was cut out for going up again anytime soon. I'm realizing the older I get the less I am able to handle motion. I'm still super happy that I married a pilot. Sam is so smart and works so hard at Flying and all things aviation. I'm a proud wife. And it's been a little while so I'm starting to feel like it's time for me to go flying with my lover again.
